Other than the 2-way at the Taj, anyone know if they spread Stud8 in AC? How regularly?

the borg will spread it if there's interest and a table open...so almost never.

I was at the Trop in December and there was a good $15/30/45 stud/8 game.

I played in the 15/30/45 game at the Trop last month. It does not go off every day. I played it on a Friday morning. Depends when the regulars feel like. Call ahead if you plan on playing.
The 10/20 2-way game at the Taj now goes every day. Great alternative. |

Has anyone told the management at the Taj about Kem cards yet?

How many are proficient at one, but not the other? I am very interested in playing (I've only played stud/8 a few times but I've made a substantial profit each time, and I feel like I'm making good decisions. I would love a chance to play more and try to improve my game. My Omaha/8 is solid without being spectacular, so I'll just grind that half of it. -Yarney |

There are usually 2-3 sharks, 4-5 loose passive players, with usually 1 rock tossed in. You'll be fine with the Stud8 as long as you make basic good decisions. NJ Chick, a full table runs everyday? |

From what I have heard from others the game goes every day. I know it used to be just a weekend thing. I have played with a few guys from the 15/30/45 Stud8 game at the Trop who have migrated over to the Taj from time to time. Might be the reason the game runs more frequently.
You are correct. Its a pretty loose passive game. I know pretty much who to stay away from and who's going to light their money on fire. And yeah throw in the token rock! Great game overall. I play it exclusively now when I play at the Taj. I've convinced others to play in it as well and they have had terrific results. Much better than the 5/10 O8 game imho. NJC |

Stud/8 is a split pot game that often features head up or three-way pots. When a heads up pot gets split at 3/6, the rake will often take all the possible profit and then some. This obviously discourages even the most collection/rake oblivious. Although Omaha/8 is also a split pot game, the urge to see the flop (at lower limits) is so great that there is sufficient action to avoid the above dilemma. Note that I have seen very small (1-3 spread limit) stud/8 at Indian casinos. My guess is the games at this limit are so small that tight players just aren't interested. ~ Rick |
