Why do they have 2/2 NLH instead of 1/2?

Also, a few posts back, someone mentioned that a person was followed from the facility and robbed. Has anyone else heard of things like this?

Dunno, wish they would spread 1/3 NL for those of us who don't want to jump up to 2/5NL.

Been like this for years - it's the norm. No one asks why, just plays.

Sounds like an isolated incident. I've never heard of anything like this happening at this location.

Managed to get creamed playing the 5/5 1k last night. Happily drinking and grinding 2/2 today if anyone is around I'm at table 32 -- standard Bose headphone Internet jabroni.

Sorry to hear that slowcheetah1...but it sounds like you're not too down about it, and that's good.

How many 2/2 tables do they usually have going on:

1. Weekdays
2. Weekend nights
3. Weekend days

...and what's the approximate ratio of good players to bad players?

How many 2-5 or 5-10 games run on a random day here? Thinking about driving down 6 hours but not sure if its worth it.

There's usually between at least 3 and as many as 10 or more 2/5 games going. 5/10 usually takes awhile to get rolling, but by mid-afternoon there is at least 1 or 2 tables of that.

Was on an interest list for 5/10 all day yesterday, it never happened. Dealers mentioned to me that the new deep 5/5 games were where a lot of the regs tended to play rather than 5/10. Seems kinda silly to me, don't know why they would prefer to be 200bb deep sitting with 1k when they could be sitting 300bb deep and 3k with the same lineup (assuming they are winners or w/e).

A floor guy told me they expect to meet the guarantee easily. So more than 250! 5 flights @ 50 each seems lol easy without one. I'm sure they'll get way more than that....

Example from November at 5/10 table behind me: "Hey, if everybody is cool with it, let's all throw in a few hundred and let the dealer deal everything face-up." WTF

Based on absolutely nothing more than me just thinking about it, I'd be really surprised if they don't blow way past the guaranteed amount. I'd lay the over/under on Saturday alone at 200 entrants (for both flights combined, not for each flight).

Any more news on the new 5/5? How many games are running in the evening/on weekends?

Recently moved to Jax and glad to have such a quality room so close. Pretty sure I saw the payout sheet on their website.

I saw some PLO running last time I was in there. Anybody know how good those games normally are?

Sounds very nice. Would be nice to sit deep against something other than a bunch short stackers.

Cool thing about the PLO game is they always do it on the raised floor, so you can look down on everyone else condescendingly. hahaha

Probably 4 or 5 of us.

Maybe I will see you down there.

Anyone know if the 5/5 game has been running during the week? Good game to play in?
