Re: The Morongo
This could not be more true. The 2/4 is amazingly good, 3/6 a combo of amazing and weak-tight folders who duck under the table when you raise. A few dealers are truly terrible, but 75% of them are...

If you are playing 30 hands per hour, how many hands do you win? Is it 10%? 3 Hands per hour.
If all are max raked you are paying 12 bucks an hour to play...

Re: Straddle Inquiry
San Manuel allows it, out in San Bernardino. Dunno if you can re-straddle there, as I wasn't aware it was a possibility when I played there. They spread some 6/12, 9/18, and often a single 15/30...

Re: IS this were the 20/40 players go?
Yep, along with 15/30 hands that didn't get enough answers in mid-hi, and got noobs like me to reply in SS.
Here's hoping PokerBob posts 5 hands a week-- when he plays bad, I learn.

Re: definition of a live straddle?
in most places that allow a live straddle, the straddle does not count as a raise towards the cap, meaning a 4-bet house can then go 5 bets for a cap (6 in vegas, where I've seen it happen at 2/4).

Re: Rank low, mid, and high limits
A little more specific: 6/12 is low-limit, 8/16 mid.
20/40 definitely mid, 30/60 and 40/80 debatable, 50/100 high.
Forced to draw a line, 30/60 mid, 40/80 beginning of high, mostly due to rarity of...

Re: Low-Mid Limit at Pechanga
The 8/16 there is as loose as 4/8, but not as weak-tight. If the 8/16 is going, sit in it-- it's awfully loose pre-flop. All Pechanga games above 3/6 are full kill, so $800 swings in this game are...

Re: L.A. Card Rooms
Morongo is 18+, about 75 miles east on 10 fwy in Cabazon. You'll find plenty of 2-4, 3-6, and 1-2NL, and often a single 4-8 and single 2-5NL.

Re: Crushing live 2/4 tables
I'll leave the "have to tip" part alone, but Morongo rebates the rake for very small pots or no flop, and only takes $2 rake (plus jackpot dollar) at 2/4 unless the pot is bigger than $40 unraked. ...

How about 4 on both? This makes the P(8) highest, while also decreasing p(7), since 4 is weighted higher while 3 is weighted lower on each die, so when one die hits 4, chance of 7 is reduced even...
