Thanks for the replies guys. I guess i will start with 6-12 and go from there. I am sure i can always observe both games and their "wildness". Also, how long is the typical wait for those games. I know there is 50+ tables but have never been to a cardroom this big...well besides this years world series with 200 tables.

Thanks again,
IaHawk

Canterbury has around 30 tables. 6/12 list can be hours on a friday or staurday afternoon.

33 I think, and DEFINITELY get there early with the combo of weekend and Fall Classic traffic.

I'm thinking about dropping in sometime, I'll post if I do.

Canterbury has a total of 50 tables. Nineteen are "casino games" which you don't want to play unless you just hate money. The other 31 are poker (they're numbered 1-34, and there's no 11, 13, or 18). During the Fall Classic they set up a separate tournament area, which I think had twenty or so tables last year.

Waits on Friday and Saturday nights can be 2-3 hours. If you're playing cash games during the day, they start up as people bust out of the tournament, so you should never have to wait that long.

I have found the 4/8 more profitable than the 6/12. Mind you, the 6/12 is a very good game, but I often find it filled with the same faces, some of them at least passable players. While I'm generally one of the better players at 6/12, I am almost always the best player at 4/8. This translates into better hourly profit. In general, I prefer a table I can dominate to a table that I can just beat.

Of course, I've never been here during the Fall Classic, so I have no idea how the games are then. Fortunately for me, I had leave coming to me, and will be taking off the first week of the event. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
