Thanks!!! Have you played in that game? How is the action? What types of stacks do people typically sit down with...If i buy in for 5k would that make me a short stack?

The money is pretty deep there. I've seen people sit with as much as $15k+. With $5k, you probably won't be terribly short stacked, though if they sense that you are playing with scared money (which I have seen occasionally) then you are going to get worked. There is a 5-5 no-limit game that is spread on Sunday if you manage to stay until then...

I've played it a little. 2+2er jen is a regular and GiftOfGab also plays it from time to time.

The game is not the most action game, but I wouldn't call it super-tough either. It's pretty easy to identify who the spots are. There are a number of regulars, most of whom are at least decent. A couple of regulars are excellent players.

$5k is fine for that game. Many will be sitting with $1k to $3k. Sometimes there will be some really deep stacks, but $5k is definitely fine. If you buyin for $5k, their first impression of you definitely won't be that you're playing with scared money.
