Let's go to the Ex!
Just got my VIP invite in the mail today, so need to get down there next week sometime to pick up my pass.
For anyone not on the list, I believe it is 4 hours play gets you a pass in to the EX and free parking once it officially opens.
Looking for someone to head down with me next week Wed/Thurs aft/Fri.

Yes, 5-10 and 10-20 only.
how do you get that?
hmm i did that last year and did not get said pass... i remember last year them saying you have to play 4 hrs then they give you a pass good for the next day then you come back and repeat til they give you another pass and so on but that could be because the cne had already started
doesn't it also get you free entry to the CNE when the regular CNE starts?
Have fun at the CNE!
CNE is a dump. I've seen horse barns with more class.
Don't even consider buying any of the "food" they offer. Bring something to eat.
Expect a wait worse than Fallsview. Bring something to read.
The dealers are awful (no offense BlondFish). Be careful that they don't push your pot to the wrong player.
The rake is 150% compared to Brantford on the 5/10. $7.50 vs $5
There is one redeeming quality of the CNE.
Fish.
The horrid players makes it all worthwhile.
people actually wait for a seat
3rd time is the charm
Limit is so annoying sometimes but man people are willing to stuff a bunch of money in the pot with middle/bottom pair. (5-10, can't speak for the 10-20 as I don't have the guts or the role to play there)
Get in before 5 on a weekday and your wait shouldn't be long. go on a weekend and you are in trouble. I'd get your VIP this week if you can as they ran out of the parking passes last year.
This is what the CNE is.
24 tables of fish all swimming upstream to spew and then die.
If you *ever* considered playing limit poker. Then this is the time to go.
Seems about 25 works. A lot of people sit down with 20, bust, then buy back in in 10BB segments. 25 should have about any pot covered with the cap at 4 bets (heads up is unlimited raises)
(Again, 5/10 only : )
I should refresh my old post on limit being the devil. Chase or be chased I guess is the moral of the story.
There are so many really retarded players at the CNE that you want to have enough to cover the table.
That way when you get heads up vs an idiot who's drawing dead you can get his whole stack.
Preflop I went 23 bets with somebody when I had AA. He spiked a 9 for a set of course.
But that's not the point. The point is to have the opportunity to get big amounts in. Some of these guys can't read the board and don't know what the nuts is.
Limit is the devil.
You have to go in there *expecting* to get bad beats. That's your job.
But you *will* win in the long run.
Don't have patience for this game...way too slow for my tastes. I guess if you always played NL live, its hard to switch over to limit. The lack of air con at the CNE didn't help either. Hopefully that has been resolved this year .
Wasn't it 10/20? The poker room has A/C.
This is one of those opportunities.
Limit may not be your best game but this is too fishy to walk away from.
it is in Vegas, where do you play?
lulz didnt know that i just play FL online thought it would be the same live... guess not
