The guy who finished 1st actually managed to "earn" >200% rake"back".
I mean, **** HUD´s and **** your "strategy" anyway (neither of them prevent you from losing at colossal rates), but moving back to PartyPoker is just a no brainer. You might even come close to breaking even if you finish 1st most days.
Even if you don´t like money, you might be interested in finding out that people cannot bum hunt you on Partypoker (as easily as on 888).
So yesterday I tried this myself at the PLO tables. Now obviously I was ---EV in the games I played and I tilted QUITE a bit, making ridculous shoves and calls all the time. I switched between playing 50bb and full stacks and lost like 600bb in total over >5,000 hands, almost busting my account at several points lol. Playing two different stakes, I did however pay >800b in rake and finished in the Top 5 and Top 20 of 2 different leaderboards, so my account balance was basically "reset" today (I think I´m up 2 Dollars after the reset haha) and I will get another 20% rakeback on top of this tomorrow. So I did actually make money, albeit at a ridiculous hourly win rate, despite clearly being a losing player in these games.
It´s just a losing player´s dream, assuming you put in a lot of volume.
So yeah, how Paisting doesn´t move back to Party is just beyond me. In terms of sheer stupidity, this might be even worse than shoving J5o for 500bb lol.
