I like the stream, especially when you can hear the players chatter at the table. The hosts are pretty good, but the action on the table is the most interesting. These guys tell each other flat out what they're thinking and what they had. Place is awesome!

Glad to see this room getting evolved in the streaming platform.

i played there this spring and it was a nice well run room and enjoyed playing the 2 5 holdem game.

the part i found atrocious was that the bigger games are called private games and run by a couple or single player that decides who plays and who doesnt. two bigger games went for a couple hours and broke as soon as the action player or players left. then the players who run the game left together. looked really bad to the general public.

i dont fault some players wanting a private game to lock out others they may think could get some of the easy money. but to have the house in on it is wrong.

i do understand florida law allows it but why would an establishment allow it and not just spread the game itself. i asked if i could spread one and the floor person said no. so obviously they are in on special benefits from the players who lock out the public.

i play with some/ multiple florida players that have been told they cant play in those games as well. and they are not winning players. but players that will play all day and night.

nothing better than to have some like that in your house to keep games going. but they also were locked out.

Some people are dicks. People don’t like to play with dicks.

None of them are “dicks”, it’s a Private game that they run and PBKC agrees to host the Private game to receive a good piece of the action. The part you guys are missing is that this is a Private game. If PBKC didn’t allow this Private game it would be held elsewhere. Unless you are “in” with those running a Private game you don’t have a right to play in it regardless of where it is being hosted. These aren’t public games.

yes but they wont start a bigger game with that one going. so in effect it limits the upside of all the games in the casino. and of course creates bad blood with the players that want to move up.
its their business so they can do as they please. and since its open to the public anyone can voice their opinion on how its run.
the only reason it can take place that way is if the employees on the shift are getting paid under the table to allow and promote it. the owners at the top probably are not aware of what is really costing them long term money.

What other bigger game are you referring to? There is an occcasional 5/10 1k max that will go when the Private game is running. There aren’t any other bigger games that ever go regardless of whether there is a Private game that day or not.

well i was there and the 5/10 was private as well. maybe just that day.

the reason i believe you dont have regular bigger games is because they are private and players cant get to move up. and when i tried to start one the house wouldnt let me.

That was probably on a Friday when there is also a 5/10 1k max Private game. There rarely is ever a game bigger than 2/5 running that is a public game.

You guys stream is actually pretty watchable. I don't give a crap about your supposed big names. Just watching the regs play and seeing the junk and solid plays are fun to see.

I check this thread from time to time. The live stream sounds interesting. I watched this video https://youtu.be/Kvh7TivkvRc of a 5/T game. I watched the first ten minutes and had to come back and ask this question: Is the poor quality of play the norm at PBKC? These players would stand out at 1/2; and it was blowing my mind.

One person's poor quality play is another's just for kicks on a Thursday. That said, action at PBKC is a bit atypical in that people come here because they love to play rather than to grind out and pay rent. This is a highly recreational environment with a few quiet pro's mixed in here and there. Please keep watching the stream and feel free to let us know what you think!

Thanks,

Visiting friends in late April midweek. Is the room on bravo? Hoping to play whatever the biggest PLO that would run. Any insight appreciated. Thanks.

it is a disgrace to poker that the 5/10 game is private. that is wrong by itself but the fact that you cant even start a list for 2/5/10 or 5/10 is disgusting. not going to this place again until this is fixed.

You can start whatever list you want. There's a 2-5-10 and a 5-5-10 on the board rn with no names on them.

Ya I saw the same list. Try joining it and watch what happens. They told me we don't spread a 5/10 game only the private game and you have to know somebody, i leaned over the guy at the podium and said 'hey guys I suck at poker can I join in' they said yea but there is people on a list that are coming. Nobody else ever came. Sickening.

I got to play one night and wasn't allowed the next. If you aren't a stone loser there's no way you're getting in the game. On the plus side, I haven't played NLHE in years and the 2/5 action was outstanding. Would rather of played PLO and higher but it was a solid room to gamble imo.

What action can I expect to see here mid week? I can’t find anything on bravo or PokerAtlas so not really sure what to expect.

Will be staying nearby for work

500 max 2/5. cant make a list for 5/10. if you break from a table you cant take stack with you.

Imagine if the room was 1500 max 2/5, allowed 5/10 that isnt some weird private bs and cut all the rules that make no sense.

this place would be crushing.

The rake for the $500 max 2/5 $6+$2 is hard to beat long term. Stacks aren’t deep enough usually. Been this way forever tho prob won’t change

having games that are hard or impossible to beat and no larger games to get in to build a bankroll, means a club cant really grow its business.
so just milks it till its customers are gone or business shrinks.

I think they are aware they can do whatever they want because they’re the only poker room In that area. Hard rock holly, coco, and isle are a ways south so they have no incentive to improve buy in structures etc
