I'd probably be able to scrape together a buy-in for 1/2 for one game... sounds interesting.

Bankroll? It's only 1 game. Just save up enough for a buy in. 25BB. You're not going to be risking 300BB. Unless you reeeaaallly have a bad night and tilt madly.

What you can learn on this type of table is easily worth it.

Sounds like fun.

I am pissed that I got talked into giving away $80, but I can actually say now that I was in a capped pot with 62o and K6o. Enjoy my money, sucker.

Just a note on this. I didnt drag either of those pots. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

There were a couple early on when you weren't there yet that I played pretty poorly,

Eventually i will be going down there. A bud of mine lives near pasadena. So i will definitely let ya know. Unless you've moved to vegas by then. Next time your up here ya oughtta be able to get into mucks.

One of the best bets i saw you make was the AK 2 pair value bet on the river after a 3 bet turn on a 4 flush board. And the guy paid ya off.

It really was a great game. 2+2 vs. the table maniacs.

Default A funny story on open limping and a stupid rule we found out about.

Next time im in the hideaway im going to ask the main floor guy about this rule. 10-20 Let's put it on the river. Supposedly if you bet($20), someone raises $19 ($39) all in, someone has to complete that bet before it can be raised. This came up in a hand GoT was in and none of us could believe it. They let his raise stand (keeping the action going) and confirmed it afterwards between 2 dealers. Along with the 4 of us protesting the rule. What a stupid frickin' rule. I really hope they were mistaken. If they weren't, and i played there regularly, id lobby like hell to change it. One guy, who wouldve won, got bumped out of the pot with this raise. He was a little perturbed about it.

Open Limping

One hand came up that caught everyone's attention preflop. Even the dealers. Our table, oh, im just guessing, was likely much more aggressive preflop than the main game. Especially our group of 4. There basically was no open limping. BUT...

All of a sudden Dude open limps in EP. Everyone stops almost in a collective 'Whoa!?!'. GoT, slavic, me down to the dealer all have questioning looks on our faces. GoT made some comment, i think slavic mentioned 'very nice hand' or something. Others were openly wondering what he could be limping with. Dude just grinned, saying, 'What!?! What's the big deal!?!'

THEN GoT limps!?! Another collective, 'What!?!' is uttered. slavic raises his eyebrows a bit then HE limps!?! Albeit, cautiously putting his chips in the pot.

I had a nice fold.

I cant remember how the hand played out, but it was a pretty funny reaction from the table to the abrupt gear change by them.

That rule above still bothers me. It can't be right.

I'd come up from Oly for a mad 2+2 1/2 game. I could probably scrape together that buy-in as well [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Buyin for 1/2 would be 50, right? I'd be cool with that.
