The new Buy in is $40-$200. If someone already posted this, sorry I missed it.

Sounds reasonable. What was it before?

$40-$100 a couple of weeks ago

I was there when it changed on the 15th (tax day-- a coincidence?). They started a new table and we all bought in for our $100. A couple hours later, a new player sits down with $200, chaos ensues, and we find out that the rule had been changed but not all the staff knew about it yet. $100 bills came flying out of the pockets of everybody under $200...

It was a great game every time I played the week I was in Vegas... too bad I still left town stuck [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Interesting. Thanks for sharing. That's an odd buy-in min/max actually. I'm not aware of any other poker room with that mix.

I like it because you know quickly that someone is FISHY if they buy in for less than $100, and when you see their K4o at shutdown in a raised pot with them UTG, it's confirmed, but already knew that!

On the other side of the coin, try buying in for just the $40 and then after 1 orbit, ie. broke, rebuy for $200, the other players will be quite confused.
