San Diego Cardrooms Rated Part I

[The Ocho]

How big of games does Village Club spread?

If you play higher than 4/8, or if you play NL, then you really can't beat Ocean's 11. Huge, clean card room with no slots or smoking. The food is pretty damn good as well and dishes cost 2$.

thanks c-rooni,
do you mean that oceans 11 is the only place that spreads mid stakes limit games? i like the room and games at O11, but i could do without the drive from downtown SD during rush hours. are there any other options for games around the 20-40 range, even if the room isn't quite as nice?

The other card rooms in San Diego that I have been to are in the Indian casinos: Viejas, Barona, and Sycuan.

Viejas usually has an 8/16 game going, but I am unaware of anything higher.

Oceans usually has a few 20/40 games going and more on the weekends. On the weekends they also run 40/80 which usually has two tables.

Yep there are no choices for 20/40 and above besides O11. Luckily its one of the best run cardrooms in the country IMO. Unluckily, the games are tougher than those in LA by a decent amount - which is why I drive up to LA usually once a week to play 20/40 and up. Also, how have I not met some of you guys yet?

i really only play once or twice a week. usually on fri or sat. i think i suck but still manage to do pretty well in the 20 and the 40 on those days (so far). PM me if you want to know who I am specifically.

[scott8]

I play at the O about once every six weeks, really just when I want a break from the internet.

I usually like Fridays when the 40/80 game is swinging.

Yeah. We should come up with an O11 meet one of these days. I'm mostly a 3/6 or 4/8 player, but I"ve been known to drop to the 1-1 NL game to sweat a friend.

[Spaded]

Lots of 2+2ers here, true. I'd like to play some live NL for the first time, after doing well on $25NL 6max online. Sometimes people like to get home games going, you just have to keep vigilant.

[Still the Spank E]

I agree with the assessment of O11's toughness. Even at the lower limits that I play at, I find an unnecessary amount of effort required if I am to make the same money found in the other cardrooms I mention in my original post.
