After a little stall in getting started I see:


7 $100 NLHE tables (6 going)

10 $50 NLHE tables (9 going)

4 $100 PLHE tables (4 going, long lists)

2 $100 PLO tables (1 going)

1 $50 NLO8 table (not going, 2 on list)

2 $200 PLO8 tables (1 going)

1 $100 PLO8 table (not going, 2 on list)

3 $50 PLO8 tables (2 going), long lists)


$50 games have .25-.50 blinds.

$100 games have .50-1.00 blinds.

$200 games have 1-2 blinds.


NLO8 looks like an abnormality to me. Like, wow. I thought they limit buyins to keep from busting their player base. If this game caught on Paradise might only have 10x as many games as True in a few weeks. Having the only $200 games being PLO8 also seems strange. At least on UB I seem some of the worst play in this game.


I noticed one little problem. When called for a game both the .25-.50 and .50-1.00 games showed up as 1-2 and the 1-2 games showed up as 2-4 in the dialog they use to call you to the game. One other interesting thing is that they don't have any play games. Only money games.

I played for a few hours tonight. The games are tremendous (.50/1 NLHE). Saw JJ shove in twice (same player!) vs. AA preflop and win. Saw truly hideous beats, which is the hallmark of a good game. I dropped 3 bills of course but that's my norm for a good game lol.
