Did any of the NH rooms do $4/$4 NL, or is that too prohibited? I know there were $4/$4 limit games back before NL cash was allowed.

Even allowing blinds at 2/5 is an improvement, and hopefully up buy in limits also; especially for PLO games which play much better at 250-300 BBs than shovefests with 100/150 BBs.

2/5 is not on the table, neither is 5/10. $10 is on the table for poker and table games. I have seen the proposed legislation and just like (lol) the rest of the law, it looks like the room operators will decide blinds as long as they do not exceed $ 10........

7/3 NL?

5/5 PLO

**** sidebar. The buy in limits are not on the table....baby steps...

Allowing the room operators to pick the blinds up to $10 is a big win!

Did you say 5/5 PLO? You teasing me Dandero?

I honestly can't even imagine what a New Hampshire $5/$10 would look like... might look like a normal $5/$10 with a mandatory $20 straddle??? It'd be maniacal. And being a recreational player I love it. Hit and run baby.

Also, if there is a change in the law to allow $10 max bet, there should be a consideration for running it twice.

Also, have you given any thought to allowing a straddle from any position?

$10 max bet is good for these rooms, because they will clean up on the table games.

All kinds of great ideas, need to save some for promotions but open to all of ideas.

If $10 is max blinds, and 2/5 is short of $10.... Maybe 5-3-2.... Button posting $2 ? Could be novel?

Isn't it max forced bet $10? Not that all the blinds can only add up to 10.

Right now the max bet in the blind to post is $4.00. The law will be changed to $10.00.... And I assume the Room will interpret and get state approval for what is allowed

Not novel actually. Was playing in that exact game at M8trix in San Jose a couple of weeks back. It's a fun concept though, and I know I'd play it here if offered.

Besides 1+2 doesn't equal 4, so why is 2/5 not an option for $10 max bet?!?!

Can you confirm what this means? Is the room now 100-percent a go? If so, when will it open approximately? Thanks.

It means we have 100% the legal right to open Cheers Poker Room & Casino at 286 N. Broadway in Salem NH.

Web cheerspokernh dot com

The process now shifts to local building permits and typical site plan review. I bet that we would win and green lighted the engineers to do all plans necessary back in January.

Our goal is to be open June 1, however, many detailed, but boilerplate permits need to be obtained. No different from any business...

The buildout is by far the easiest and fastest part of the project.

I'm super excited and super tired. Like many other projects that I have permitted, it is a major and extrodinarily detailed process and very draining.

Leaving for Vegas vacation in less than 2 weeks.....

River allows a button straddle fwiw.
