Any party players here?

What are your thoughts on the jackpot tables? Is it better to play them, or the regular ones? I was thinking that you lose some EV or at least increase variance because of the jackpot system. However, they should attract a lot of fish to them, shouldnt they? Thoughts?

A friend of a friend won 85K there in like the 2nd or 3rd session of poker he ever played (lost with quad 8s). I can't look at the count without going AAAAAAAARRRRRRGHHHHH! WHY THE FISH???

Problem is, that a) NL isn't a good game for such a jackpot, because the WTS is generally too low. In FL, the jackpot tables are a value-betting heaven and b) the extra 50c is quite a lot for the uNL games, because the rake is pretty high in general already. I don't play there.
