Was worried it was my poor vision or that the computer display was going. Called the poker desk and Sunday 6/21 and 6/28 they run their regular $80 + $20 at 2PM and 7PM. Monday $125 at 2PM and 7PM. Tuesday $240 at noon and $125 at 7PM. Wednesday $180 at 12:15 and 7:15. Thursday $100 at 10AM Senior's, $125 at noon $100 at 7PM. Friday $345 at noon and $125 + $25 at 7:15. Saturday $110 satellite to the main at 9AM, $1000 ME at noon, and $150 at 7:15. I apologize for any errors in my transcription of what he said.

The last time I played in one you register with a partner and switch after each level.

Thanks. Guess it will be cash game that night or a Pirates game if they are playing.

Will see those turning out Tuesday through Sunday. Pirates are playing the Reds during that week.

Anything special planned around July 4? I'll be in Pittsburgh for an extended long weekend visiting my Mom and hope to get at least one day to myself.

Following up on this, does Rivers ever have anything besides the steady diet of NLHE, PLO, and 4/8 limit HE? I'm in PGH for another week and would love to time my visit to Rivers to play something besides those three.

What's the buyin for the 1-3-6 PLO? Is that the smallest? Is the $6 a mandatory button straddle?

The BBJ is now over 300 K, 1-3 games must be really good.

Yes. You can also completely avoid traffic by taking a walk along the river.

This statement is self-contradictory. A game where nobody respects your raises is a great game.

Just an advisory for anyone not a regular there.

Rivers has introduced new chips with a "First Five" decal and others with a "Year of the Ram" decal that are slightly thicker than their ordinary "Rivers Casino"chips.

If you sort your chips by decal and stack 20 "First Fives" and 20 "Rivers" chips (redbirds at least) you will find the First Five stack is almost a full chip taller.

Count your stacks down - all of them - every time.

I guess they're the same ones, I don't know, I don't get there that often. But sometimes when things are slow I sort my chips out by the decal and that's when I noticed the difference.

Trying to decide between playing in the PPO Summer Main Event in August, or the Main Event for Heartland Poker Tour at Soaring Eagle in Michigan which is later this month.

How soft is the field here? I've played/cashed in the weekly deep stack but never played one of their series. I assume they get some other/stronger players for the series?

How many runners are normal for this event? I can find some past info that shows like 80-90 runners, which seems really light. Is that normal or did I just find an exception?

Thanks!
