Default Re: 150$ for 2/4 @ foxwoods not enough?

I don't understand why you wouldn't want to have $1 chips at a $2/$4 table. The small blind is $1.

When I played 2/4 (and the first few times I played 5/10), I made sure to buy some $1 chips to go along with my rack, until I realized that it was easy enough to get $1 chips from either: change from my folded small blind, from other players, or from pots won.

It really is a pain in the arse for the dealer to have to constantly refund money and keep track of who put what into the pot.

Although many Foxwoods dealers are idiots, most can handle the above two tasks.

For my first time playing live, I was surprised at how much money I gave away to the dealer. A $1 tip per winning hand seemed pretty standard. Probably won 20 hands, so probably tipped $20. Made a big difference at the end of the night.

You probably spent as much on gasoline, food, and tips for the waitresses. Besides, if twenty dollars makes a big difference to you after 6-8 hours of play, then you probably should ask your mommy to increase your allowance.
