I was a regular at Party 10/20 a couple of years ago and was a decent winner, running at over 2bb for 100k hands. I went on a downswing that wasn't a big deal and started playing at Absolute and Eurobet for rakeback.

Either the play has steadily gotten better or I have become steadily worse. I can make much more by six tabling $109 sit and gos, and by playing 2/4 NL. I have given up. The curious thing is that the best players, like Dave_Wilkes and Victor have moved on to higher limits. It is the run of the mill players I am not beating.

nice trash talking we are getting going...

yes I was talking about the Party 10/20.

i played a short session today and I think the game is still plenty soft if you are fine with actually doing a little table selection and playing poker.

it does seem that it is no longer possible to just fire up 4-6 tables and start raising and turn a nice profit like you used to be able to do. seems like profiting in these games will have to involve playing some poker. doh!

and yes i agree there are lots of other better 10/20 games out there than Party.

I started playing 10/20 about a year ago and ran at about 1.3BB/100 back then. I have improved a little and now I've running at 1.88BB/100 over 250k this year. I would say games are definitely beatable for decent hourly rate, but they have been getting tougher.
