Default Commerce during the week?

How's the action at Commerce during the week? Are some days busier than others? I plan on making a trip during the week, are there mostly regulars there, or can I expect some loose soft action?

Andy, I'm heading down on Wednesday (two days from now) and staying until Friday (we're driving to Vegas on Friday, although I'm not sure if we are going to leave in the morning or stay at Commerce to play for a while and leave later in the day). I'm planning to play 20/40. The games will be good? Is there another limit slightly lower or higher that tends to be softer than 20/40? From what people say, it sounds like the games there are always good, but this is my first time there so I'm wondering what to expect. Thanks.

I have heard from numerous people that the 9/18 is a great game. I haven't played in it yet, but next time I go I am going to.

If you can afford $15-30 or $20-40 don't bother with the $9-18. $9-18 drops $4 per hand + $1 jackpot. $15-30 and $20-40 charge $8 or $9 per half hour and you get free food. The higher limits are generally loose as $9-18, although slightly more irrationally aggressive. You will see players that raise preflop with hands like K10o, Axo, and Q9s in early position as well as three and four bet these hands

I've heard some people say that the 20/40 is softer than the 15/30. Is this true? Is there a jackpot drop in those games as well as in the smaller games? I'm excited about the free food.

Unless it's changed (again) in the past two weeks or so, the 15-30 and above games also use a drop (but not jackpot) rather than a time charge. 20-40 tends to be looser than 15-30, and there will be 2-3x as many 20-40 games going as 15-30 at any given time.

It seems to me that at most LA casinos there are some limits that are very often looser then others.
20/40 is softer then 15/30
40/80 is softer then 30/60
9/18 is always insanely soft.
