Default Are The Players at WPEX that good?

I'm a winning player at 100-200 Limit Holdem, Bellagio, Commerce etc. I made a lot of money playing Party from 15 to 50 games. I just can't win at WPEX. Now I'm trying 10-20 as a challange but I'm still loosing and just getting my money back from the rake. Is somebody having the same problem?

I'm trying to figure that out as well, I'm in the same situaton as you. Either run hot or cold there, too many semi- bluffing 4 betting maniacs in situations on 4th street where a 4 flush presents them after a bad flop call.

Never played there, but the line I've heard is that they're "tricky", not good.

That is, take the "correct" line in a hand and they eat you. Have to mix it up a bit to beat them, but they are beatable.

Again, this is just second hand info from what I've read here.

Tricky and a near psychotic level of aggression.

Pots get big fast, with a lot of pots capped preflop with no one having a premium hand.

Typical sequence:
Folds to MP who raises with 77
CO 3 bets with A7s
BB caps with 99

If the flop comes 7 high, all three players will go to the river acting like they've got the nuts.

I thought i was a healthy winner until I really looked at pokertracker, and found that I am a healthy loser at all limits with 5 or more players. However, I am a very big winner HU, 3 handed, and somewhat at 4 handed. So thats all I do now, and I am winning consistantly on there. Of course i'm mainly playing omaha now and the games are so easy I have quit holdem at the moment.

I don't know why I can't beat 5 or 6 handed games on there, but it is a fact. I have played large numbers of hands a all limits from 1/2 to 20/40, and it is the same at every limit. I am barely a winner at 1/2 5 and 6 handed, and a loser at all other limits. Go figure.
