Re: Why 6/12 but no 5/10?
It has to do with the number of chips in the middle.
In a $6/12 game that uses $2 chips, a $120 dollar pot would contain 60 chips.
In a 5/10 game with $5 chips, a $100 pot would contain just 20 chips.
When you are sitting at the table, a pot with an assload of chips looks "bigger" then one with a lesser number of chips. The hypothesis is that the increased number of chips in the middle creates more action.
