Another reason I love playing poker

Canterbury 6/12. Serious-looking, sunglasses-wearing 30/60 player is slumming it in the 6/12, waiting for a seat. He and another player have been discussing the 30/60, and this guy has made himself table captain by raising about 50% of hands (and losing a rack or two of yellow in the process). He then buys the table a drink (no free alcohol at CP).

So the 9 seat looks at him and says, "You must have a really good job to be able to afford to play 30/60."

Priceless.

The funny thing is, the lower I play, the stupid-er-er I play too. Set me in a 50c-1.00 home game and I am maniac city, capping with gutshots to the butt-end, three-betting preflop with 23s, etc.

This guy probably HAS to have a good job to play both 30-60 AND to blow off two racks without a thought at 6-12.

That's what got me into 30-60, my day job. Want a great tune up for the middle games? Play the 2-4 or whatever and play EVERY hand blind. Dont make it obvious, just work on position and players. It's a buzz.

Just to clarify, the 6/12 is played with $2 chips at CP.
