Shamrock,
Don't really know enough about your game to comment. However, my game at party 50NL really started to take off when:
1) I started checking a lot more turns ( I used to fire on every street)
2) I expect to be "sucked" out. It happens, I charge, I move on.
3) I realized that most 50NL party guys want to wait to do their betting on the river. So they have a hand, you check the turn, now they bet 3/4-full pot on river you can fold easily. On the contrary, you've checked the turn and they bet 1/2 pot on the river, you can CR that a lot of times (more than min) and they will fold.
4) When you have the nuts and you check the turn and go all -in on the river, you will get an amazing amount of calls. The weak looking turn followed by the super-strong river sreams bluff to most $50NL guys. You'll get called with TPTK quite often.
