Default What limits are spread at canterbury and which are good?

Now that I think I've figured out where Canterbury is and where we're going to stay, I figured I should think about what to play.

I looked on canterburypark.com for info on what limits they spread, but couldn't find anything.

I'm also interested in what limits tend to be good. Me and my friends probably won't want to play anything higher than 8/16.

Thanks for the help.

-Craig

this has come up a few times -

4/8 to 6/12 are the best games, IMHO - I have heard the 8/16 are good but can pick up some aggressive players sometimes -

maybe bicyclekick or gonores can elaborate -

Great! Those are perfect limits for me! Thanks a lot for the info.

What would you say they compare to online? Party 2/4? 3/6?

yeah, whiskey is right, the 4/8 and 6/12 are generally very good.

8/16 can be, but is typically a step harder.

the 4/8 6/12 are somewhere in between party .5/1 and 2/4 i think. The 8/16 is like 2/4 or 3/6 I'd day. The difference from .5/1 to 2/4 is game selection...

no, there is no NL.

Hold'em: $2/4, $3/6, $4/8, $6/12, $8/16, and $15/30 go daily. $30/60 goes almost daily.

Stud: $2/4 goes daily. $3/6 goes a few times a week. $4/8 and $6/12 go sporadically, generally restricted to a $6/12 game on Friday nights.

Stud/8: $30/60 goes on Tuesday. There hasn't been a smaller game in several months.

Omaha/8 with a half-kill: $4/8 goes almost daily. $20/40 goes on Mondays and occasionally on a Friday or some other day. $10/20 seems to go only during the Fall Classic.

I think that the conventional wisdom has been that the $6/12 game is the best in the room for so long that there is a largish body of decent players who now play it by choice. So I think that $4/8 or $8/16 might just be better on a lot of nights. In any event, there are lots of games in that range to choose from, and the games are almost always very good. The $15/30 game is usually excellent, almost certainly my best choice, and the $30/60 game is usually good as well.

I find the 8-16 easier than the typical 6-12 on the weekends. During the week I prefeer the 6-12. the 8-16 sometimes gets ridicously agressive. I heard a live straddle turned into a blind preflop cap last night. On a busy night there may be one or two 81-6 games about 5 opr 6 6-12's so they are easier to get on for the most part.
