Thinking about doing the purple lounge 300 dollar match. Not sure about using pounds or dollars. I know I get more with pounds but I lose a hell of a lot more.

I'll be playing 3cp since BJ is disallowed.

If you can afford the pounds, I don't see why you wouldn't do it.

What's the HA on 3CP?

Pathogen, please post your results of playing 3CP at Purple Lounge when you are done. I posted this thread (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=6976457&an=0&page=0#Post 6976457) earlier this week, and would be interested to see other peoples results since mine seemed so out of whack.

Will do I'll probably be playing about 2 dollar hands so with the raise its 4 bucks a play? Looks like I have to keep track of the WR by hand. I've heard they only update you every 24 hours. *rolls eyes*

Still haven't gotten my bonus match yet so I'm gonna go to bed and hopefully it'll be there when I wake up.

They dont match the bonus, you get it after you finish the WR. That's why I ended up losing my ass there since I kept redepositing to finish out the WR to get it.

Well in half an hour I'm down 100 bucks betting 2 on the ante and raising with Q 6 4 or better. Occasionally folding when the dealer is on a streak. I'm thinking about leaving.

That would be a smart move, I think they might be rigged (seriously)

You're folding hands better than Q64??

Is playing 3CP even +EV? I remember doing this for Aces and Faces (~1% HA) and I busted my $300 pretty fast. Had to reload twice to meet the WR so I can get the bonus....

Like QJ5 K57 etc. Anything better and I play but in the 9 times I folded 8 of them were the right move.

Don't do that.... The cards have no memory!!

If you are playing a non-optimum strat you are giving the house a larger advantage.

Barely half way through the WR lost another 100 I'm cashing out. This time I followed Q64 or better to the dot.

I'm 99% sure this is dollars only. I finished +200 on the play, and +300 bonus.
