Re: Lucky Chances / Oaks / Bay 101

Re: Looking for a San Francisco Home Game
Hi
I moved to SF last year and am trying to start a game. It will be pot limit, casino games only. People seem leery about pot-limit, so I am starting with 25/50 cent blinds and a $50 buy-in, so...

Re: Dealer puts young punk in his place

Re: Vegas or LA? Where should I go?
Well if you've never been to LA, it would seem to be a no-brainer. But even if you had been, I'd choose LA.
Golf in LA is better, cheaper and more varied than those sterile surreal $120-a-round LV...

Re: Reno - is it worth it?
I have only played at the Hilton, Cal-Neva and one other downtown in Reno, and thought that Harvey's in Tahoe was much softer than any of those.

West-coast PL B&M games
Anyone know of card rooms or casinos in California/Nevada or close that regularly spread pot-limit Hold'em or Omaha? I have been to a number that claim to do so, but when asked, they say they haven't...

Re: 99 in MP- 1st time playing party 3/6

Re: Where to play in SF bay area

Re: Cache Creek?
I went to Cache Creek once. I found my 3/6 table (w/ a full kill) to be very soft in general, although looking at the other tables there seemed to be a lot of old fellas with big stacks of chips.

Re: Vegas Golf
The Desert Rose is decent value (for Vegas) at around $65-75. It is a county-owned course on the east side of Vegas. It isn't bad and most other courses will get you for $120 or more. They have a...
