Default Is pineapple a low-limit only game in CA and VA?

They just started spreading pineapple in the Midwest, and it looks like a) lots of fun and b) a gold mine. There were several players who came down from 20/40 HE to play bad 3/6 Pineapple.

I know this game has been spread out west for several years, but is it typically a low-limit only game? Do you see 30/60 Pineapple games?

They don't, I'm a moron. I'm multitasking and was answering a question for a client in Virginia.

I got a good chuckle out of that as well.

As for pineapple, doesn't exist here in town, unless a group of players get together and want to spread it. I did play a 5/10 mixed game at the Aladdin a few weeks ago that had Crazy Pineapple inserted in place of holdem. I couldn't believe how many of the players had no clue how to play stud or omaha.

In Los Angeles, for the first two years the games was spread, it was an absolute gold mine. Its the first game I was really able to absolutely kill...run the table by value betting and raising HARD!. The fish really have no idea how to play and trapping the whole table for a raise on the turn is just outstanding. I found the best hands were A2s or A3s As the scooping potential was insane. I don't think I ever played low cards that lacked an Ace or any high cards that did not hold an Ace except KK, KQ, KQs and then only continued if I hit the flop very well.

Default Pineapple in FL, too

I played some $2-$2 Crazy Hi last night in north Florida. Lot of fun, but I'll stick to Hold'em and Omaha and Stud, thanks.

The Wynn has a weekly Crazy Pineapple 8/b game now, if I recall correctly its a 4/8 game. Its rather wild, a lot of fun.
