1/2 is still my most profitable game considering only bbs, which is interesting bc rake affects bbs/100 the most there.
The brutal aspect is the players not being familiar with poker. Like in 5/10 if the dealer is dealing and flips an A
to someone, someone else makes a joke and we all just continue talking or whatever. In 1/2 the floor needs to be called to explain to the person the A
is not his and is now the burn, then they berate the dealer, then an Ace hits on the flop (this is guaranteed 100%), more berating, then table discusses this bad luck and poor floor ruling and bad dealer skills for the next 8 hours.
But bb/hr wise nothing beats 1/2. Someone lead/called it off the other night into me on AK5cc with red 33 because "they thought I was bullying the table" (I had raised like 2 hands in the 15 minutes I was there)
I hope this doesn't out me but I most enjoy 1/2 because it adds to the leveling factor I have with the 5/10 regs who probably think I'm scared money because I don't play it full time (40% 5/10, 55% 2/5, 5% 1/2)
