They're also under no great pressure to start, either. They clean up on those 1/2 blind NL tables with the $5/half-hour time charge.

Perhaps this is just a dorky rumor that only us naive Foxwoods yellow-chip players fall for*, but a dealer once told me they have an upstairs room where the high-limit clientele plays bigger games that don't show up on their board. I didn't bother getting details because hey, I'm decades from ever playing those games, but it made me curious.
As others noted, $20/40 is only the biggest hold'em game; Perhaps the OP is unaware that poker has actually been played for years in other variants as well as mixed games, or perhaps they just neglected to say hold'em. When I've looked there's usually something going as high as $75/150 or $150/300, either stud or HOE. And of course around the two big tournaments the side action really picks up. Ah, to have a bankroll.... [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] *Kinda like the rumors that Mohegan's just about to start up again. |

It was great to see you the other day. I went back later to visit with you again, but you were nowhere to be found.

[/ QUOTE ] Don't go teasing me now! I'll be happy to not have to drop the wife off at Mohegan, and drive back to Foxwoods to play and then back to Mohegan to sleep. |
