The "big game" that Brunson, Ivey, Chan, Reese etc. all play in is a mixed 4000/8000 limit game right? Does anyone know what the biggest NL or PL game spread is in Vegas, or anywhere else?

They play NL and PL too, with a 100000 cap on what you can lose in a hand. Think the blinds are 1000/2000, which sucks. Maybe they are 500/1000, which sucks less, although still does.
Don't know hwy they play shallow.

from their blogs and sites, when they play rounds of no-limit, there is a 100,000 cap per hand, blinds are 1000/2000 with a 1000 Ante (that's not a typo - the ante is the same as the small blind). I think this makes it just about impossible to have any decent edge in this game unless someone folds to often. Anyone else have any thoughts about this structure - I may make a post about it.

I thought I read somewhere that THE biggest limit game with those guys were $150,000/$300,000 blinds. Its coming up or something like that.

No, it's definitely the 1 billion/2 billion limit that Bill Gates plays. He better watch out though, he only has about 30 big bets, he might go broke playing this game.

Why is it so upsetting to you that people want to know? They're curious.

You're right: "Who cares?" So let them be.

although i've heard they do use from time to time 1/2k blinds, are you sure about that ante? that ante is totally ridiculous (as is the blinds relative to the cap). sorry man, but i dont believe u on those antes

Because this is a strategy forum. Not a gossip forum, who cares what the biggest NL game is? If you care, post in the WPT forum.

The part about the $1,000 ante is true. Daniel N. has posted about it a couple times on his website. 1/2K blinds, 1K ante.

Which of your posts in this thread contained strategy advice? I must have missed it. Go away if you don't like the topic.

This is what the description of this forum is:

"Discussions about mid to high stakes pot-limit and no-limit hold'em."

Does it say "Discussions about mid to high stakes pot-limit and no-limit hold'em personal strategy"?

He's discussing high stakes no-limit, that's that, move on. Don't waste your precious time with these threads if you don't care for them, Your Highness. Please feel free to contact the moderator and he can sort it out for you.
