Only $2-4 hold-em' is as boring and unprofitable.

Why do you say this? I play 2/4 all the time and I like it. I've done pretty well, although I haven't been playing very long. I'm interested in your thoughts on this though.

$2-4 is usually the lowest hold-em' game you'll find in a casino. I think the Excalibur in Vegas has $1-3.
It has a lot of the same folks who typically play $1-5 stud, plus a lot of people who are new to the game who either play very loose or passive. It might not always be boring, but you will see a lot of suckouts on the river with your top pairs when someone gets their inside straight on the river. Ever hear the term no fold-em' ?
The rake is tough to beat in that game as well. $4-8 is probably the lowest limit where you'll see a profit. Although I heard that there are $3-6 games in AC that are very, very profitiable. I'd like to play $3-6 at the Borgata on a Saturday night at 2AM or so.
