Casino Arizona Regulars Thread - Page 7 - Venues & Communities -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

The debate at my table over the weekend on multiple days is an interesting one for those at CAZ.... The more profitable option for the regulars who play NL...

2/3 or 3/5 more profitable....

My opinion & strategy is playing 2/3 on weekend nights because of the wild amounts of players and money that gets filtered into the 2/3 game.... otherwise I feel the 3/5 is the better game but since I don't have the bankroll for 5/10 maybe I am missing something..

I hate the fact that it is a topic because for me there is no debate, 2/3 is more profitable. It is even more profitable for me than 8/16 and I am the best player at any time in any 8/16 game I sit in (which doesn't happen often).

I just wish all the wannabes would stick with 3/5 and keep grinding it out at a breakeven clip.

Hold'em BBJ is at 80k as of 4am (Wed morning)....

If your in the mood to see a room full of 3/6 tables then today is the day..... People watching is prime in my opinion!

To be fair, however, I have no problem with existing regulars discussing off-campus events with each other -- just not out-of-the-blue ads for games.

Seems like the "Call security for drunk guy" button is being clicked faster than before...

Thursday night (yes thursday) They had a kid escorted out who had clearly been drinking but was having fun not being loud and to be honest everyone at the table liked him there as he was donating and fun for the table...

They want to sell alcohol and allow people to gamble I kinda wish they wouldn't step in unless it was disturbing others or danger to himself...

Anyone have info on the frequency and quality of O/8 games? I've never really paid attention to them.

The Situation

Join Date: Oct 2007 Posts: 3,465

Can someone tell me the best way to get through Phoenix on the way from Tucson to LV?

My GPS and AAA direct me to take I-10 to 101 to 60 through Glendale to 93. But getting through Phoenix and Glendale is like driving in LA or DC - I was wondering if it would be better to take I-17 north to Flagstaff, then I-40 over to Winslow.

Any advice appreciated.

I've cross posted this to B&M Arena thread hoping to catch one of the reg's who's on line -sorry for the duplication.

You've got a couple of options, and depending on time of day, the I-10 then 60 (Grand Ave) route isn't bad. You've got 2 other "real" options, all of which Google Maps can detail to you.

If you're doing this at 6-9am or 3-6pm, don't take Grand. Otherwise, you're fine. Lots of overpasses and tunnels on that route now.

Or, you can take I-10, I-17 and then cut over at 74 just north of town. 12 miles longer, but avoids Grand.

Or, you can take I-10 out to the West side of town and cut up Loop 303. Also 12 miles longer, but avoids Grand.

Try searching Google Maps for "Ahwatukee, AZ to Wickenburg, AZ" to see your options.

This is Carefree Highway? It's the way I go. I took Grand once. I must have hit 50 traffic lights.

BTW, I-40 to Kingman is heavily patrolled and the cops have NO sense of humor.

I'm not sure if I have had less than or greater than 50% of my posts in the B&M CAZ thread deleted by Rapini.

Yeah, the Glendale/Sun City thing on US60 is worse than going out from DC on Route 50 at least the couple of times I've done it.

The I-40 from Flagstaff would have been a last desperate choice. At least for those 20 miles from 93 to Kingman that highway is in the worst shape in terms of repair of any US interstate I've ever seen.

I'm definitely trying the I-17 to "Carefree highway" the next time.

Sounds like the right strategy. What did they delete this time? If it was the "lol" at my idea for taking I-17 to Flagstaff that was probably a good response.

You've never been through Oklahoma then...

I haven't driven through Oklahoma in a long time, must be at least 10 years. And I-40 was in unremarkable shape in those days, but sounds like that's no longer true. I guess that change in status applies to a lot of our national infrastructure.

You're fortunate to have never driven through Detroit.

Also, the highway I take to work every day has been in a state of repair in one part or another for over 20 years, but it's not an Interstate.

Not sure if its just me but I have noticed the 2/3 game after 3:30pm playing much bigger than it did this spring... it seems people have no issues with re-buying max 3 times...

I think this is what we were hoping the 2/3 would be when they changed the levels... So far so good!
