80/160 (No content)
 
Maybe this is a stupid question, but how do people play 80/160? 3 greens and a red before and on the flop and a black, two greens, and two reds on the turn and river? That seems kind of messy...

Anyway, I was just wondering... Thanks in advance for any response...

have a nice day,

Just got back from Bellagio and they used $20 orange chips for everything.

Oh, I've never seen $20 chips, but that makes sense... Orange at the Bellagio, huh? How was that, Brujita? I'm thinking about staying there when I go to Vegas in the spring, although I'll probably be playing 80/160 w/ two dollar chips instead of $20... :v)

Thanks a lot, though, for the very quick replies!

I might write up a mini trip report because I had a real good time and learned a lot from playing the game.

Quick impressions: Sunday (about 3 hours) soft game, bought in short, 4 to a flop average, a lot of cold calling.

Monday: more regulars, much tougher game, maybe 25-32% to the flop probably only a small favorite. Scott Fischman, unnamed nba player and a few bellagio/la pros in game. 2-3 weak spots. The only reason I was a small fave was two soft spots and the higher limit players were bored and playing somewhat loose preflop.

Both days, less aggression than online, more cold calling, but surprisingly excellent post flop play from most players. Much easier to read hands and players live. Much of this was/is obvious but I am new to higher limit live games.
