And how many hours did you play "the past few months" good sir? 100-200 and probably ran like god? Yeah, def sustainable. Get back to me when you have taken very close records over the span of 1000 hours

1000 hrs is what, 20 to 25k hands? Ive had 80k breakeven streaks online, although it was higher variance 4max and 6max

live != online, but yes, I agree. This is why some old man on a heater coming in here saying he is making $60/hr at a 1/2 game with a $8 rake over the span of probably 1000 hands is utterly laughable

What is the max buy in for 1-2nl? I live in Wisconsin and normally play 1-3 NL at Potawatomi, but started working in Cary, IL and was thinking about a change of poker rooms but want to make sure it's not some short stacked bs play. THANKS in advance!

I read on poker atlas that the management is highly rated, some dealers are great and others bad. Sounds like the same people who make shill posts on here.

I'm there three nights a week, and there is absolutely no way poker room management is "highly rated". Imposibru.

They just raised their BBJ requirements to AAAQQ. Curious to see if it ever goes to Quads what it will do to traffic.

Wow that will be great. This room is getting better but got to lower the rake and get rid of the high hand

They are actually getting Bravo. All of the Bravo technology has been installed on their tables.

As far as the high hand goes, they should either get rid of it, or make it run throughout the entire gaming day. The fact that it ends at 6pm is BS.
