Re: Commerce During the Week?
I play at the Bike during the week a lot - mostly later (9 PM till about midnight or 1 AM).
Usually there's two or three 80%+ VPIP fish, one or two solid players, and one or two bluffer/LAG types. 5 and up to flops often, cold calls with any two suited, etc. etc. - your standard fare, really. Not too many table drunks or super maniacs. The Bike also has a $40 buy-in NL which is absolutely hilarious. I'm certainly no money bags so this is the only NL game in which I can play crazy and super loose and not worry about losing my buy-in (which I generally don't - took $400 from it last time, which I was quite proud of for a $40 game). |

[/ QUOTE ] Yeah I think it's relatively new - and fantastic. It's not uncommon to see 5 or 6 to a flop here either - I've never seen that in a NL game. Smart value betting can pay off lovely. In fact, I think I'm going to go play for a while right now! |

Re: Commerce During the Week?
I think he was joking about the game drawing young players - but to answer your question, I've never been carded in any casino ever. Granted, I'm 29, but I look extremely young for my age, and I certainly get carded in all bars, whenever I buy alcohol, and even used to get carded for cigarettes occasionally until I quit last year.
So I would say that you have a pretty decent chance of pulling it off. However, that doesn't mean I'm recommending that you try it - I'm just saying it's probably easier to get into a casino in LA underage versus a bar. |

Oh and, ENJOY! |
