Default Re: Any Garden City Stud/8 players?

[ QUOTE ]

You are probably right about the game structure as I haven't played there for 6 or 7 years, but I used to stop in there on business trips to Silicon Valley and the game was a better structure and profitable due to poor players.

My recollection is 4/8 stud/8 with a 0.50 ante and $4 taken out before the deal. A stiff rake for sure, but a high percentage of players saw 4th street, much higher than current online games

I mistyped, it is indeed 4/8 not 3/6, but it is $1 ante and $1 bringin. Ocasionally they run a 'scoop' table where the stakes rise to 6/12 after the pot is scooped, which I find somewhat silly since the ante size doesn't change.

The quality of play doesn't seem to have changed, at least on my previous two trips there.
