mentioned a few weeks ago that poker died in march and have been waiting for this time for the games to (hopefully) get good again
last year at this time on 888 with a 40k jackpot (which is what it is right now) there would have been 10ish full ring tables running with half of them having $20ish or up average pots of the .50-1 jackpot games, plus a few decent 1-2, .50-1 non jackpot, and 10 or so .25-.50s with half of them having $10+ average pots
currently there are 6 of the jackpot tables running with $13 being the highest average pot
there are 4 .25-.50s that have full tables one has over $10 average the rest are below
there are two 1-2's, on one of the table i have notes on every player and none are fish (28 avg pot but table just started) and the other has a $24 avg pot, there are two people i dont have notes on but that average pot is awful so im sure they arent action, out of all the tables i have zero players noted green (real fish) and less then a handful of purples (to active/if flops Q hi with AQ you have his stack type fish but not great action) and they are all so spread out no 2 on the same game
poker is dieing
(before spiv shows a graph of a guy who won some money last night to refute everything i just said over the last month i had my first winning month in a long time and am not trying to tell a "poor me" story, im just trying to let those who prepare to move abroad for poker understand the current climate before they make a pretty significant life decision, that guy saying he wants to have $44,387 before moving might have the right idea)
