Default 5/10 games in AC?

For the most part, I play 4/8 at the Trop in AC. I want to give a higher level a shot. But the Trop goes from 4/8 to 7.50/15 (the pink game). Do any of the other casinos offer 5/10? I know some offer 6/12, but I would prefer trying 5/10 first.

Taj has multiple 5-10 games.

Borg 6/12 is typically a better game than the Taj 5/10. You can sit in either of these games with the same buy-in and be comfortable ($250-$300). Just my own personnel recommendation.

Has the trop finally dropped the 6-12? Does the pink game actually run round the clock now?

Yea, I haven't seen the 6/12 game in a few months. They have the pink game all the time. Last weekend, I saw 2 tables going. I've heard it's a loose game, but I am not comfortable dropping $400-$500 on it yet.

BTW- A dealer told me they'll have the 6/12 game in the summer and the pink game the rest of the year. Don't know if that is true or not though.

Last I was in AC was Columbus weekend in October. The 6/12 was still running, so the pink game was mostly regulars. Most of them still played pretty badly. It was a slightly tougher game than the 4/8, but still plenty beatable. Mountains of pink are tons of fun.

"a loose game" is quite an understatement.

There is some magic in those pink chips that make capping in the SB with Q6os seem perfectly reasonable.

You could pretty easily drop 400-500 in a 5-10 game as well. If that is an amount that concerns you, you may want to play lower.

Uusally, I play 4/8. I sit down with $200 and reload another $100. If I lose $300 in one sitting, I walk away. I would think (incorrectly, maybe?) I can sit down at a 5/10 game with $250 and reload with another $100-$150. But it's not really the amount that concerns me, it's more psychological. I'm just used to playing w/ $200-$300 at a time.
