Comments
The cash games are juicy and plentiful. This is the list from the November Series.
For the tournament week here in Regina, the Poker room gets moved into the Casino's Show Lounge. Tournaments and cash are held in the same room and they even set up 2 $25 min/ $500 max black jack tables this year.
Cash games were available from 12 noon until 6am for each day of the tournament, and depending on the time of day there was 20 or more different available to be used. More as the tourney dwindled down
ofcourse. The games that were offered this week in the show lounge were:
1/2 NL
1/3 NL
2/5 NL
5/10 NL
10/20 with kill
10/20 DC
15/30 with kill
15/30 Omaha high/low.
There were also single table and extreme sattelites available for each event of the tournament series. The poker room staff were well organized and kept the list moving along. If one was to miss 2 sets of
blinds during peak times chips were removed and seats made available. 1 hour dinner markers were available with a max of 2 at one time per table.
I like it!
I assume these are limit......any PLO, or NL/PL DC?
The omaha games are soft even if FL. I know some locals who won't even play the tourney's cause they are raking it at 15/30. Like one maybe 2 solid players per table. I played 5/10 Hi Low, made out good, trust me, you would mop floors.
And there are TONS of cash games. 1 hour tops wait, they are organized.
