150$ for 2/4 @ foxwoods not enough?
I have a personal rule to never use any money I make in real life to gamble, only internet profits. Anyway I was going to get to Foxwoods with a friend today and I'd much prefer to play poker with 150$ than craps. Can I hold up with that? Also the reason I can only get 150 out is because this is last minute and all my cash is tied up elsewhere.

its fine. variance is ultimately what will determine whether its enough.
i'd bring $300 though. |

Alright cool. I just got off the phone with them and it seems like the rake isn't too bad either. Variance will prove to be the factor, we'll see how it goes.

I play $2/4 quite a bit and virtually never run through a rack of yellow ($200), even on the worst days. The real question is, how big a disaster is it if you bust out?
And use white for $2/4, no matter what they tell you. This is my little activist project. $2/4 with $2 chips is absurd. (FW wiki page) |

Why would you want to slow down the game playing with white?
Are your suggesting the 4-8 be played with white as well? I've played 4-8 this way and the game is much slower than using the $2 chips. |

[/ QUOTE ] 4/8 with white is the nuts. Its not slow at all (now, I'm not talking FW, but this is how Canterbury runs it). Now, if you've got morans who don't know how to count 4 chips, then 8 chips, maybe it'll go a little slower, like one hand per hour less, but that's not much to give up. |

I break a stack of 20 into 5 piles of four beforehand, so slinging out 4 or 8 white is as easy as pulling out two or four yellow. [ QUOTE ] Are your suggesting the 4-8 be played with white as well? I've played 4-8 this way and the game is much slower than using the $2 chips. [/ QUOTE ] With $4/8 I'm fine with either. 2 chip/4 chip doesn't create tiny-looking pots like 1 chip/2 chip. Sometimes if I have a few stacks of white (from moving up from $2/4), I make piles of eight. I'm not as adamant as some on here (see above) about maximizing physical pot size, but it can't hurt right? |

How can you play more than 5 minutes craps with $150?
