Arrow List of live O8 games

I inferred from discussion on this thread that there really isn't a good listing of live FLO8, PLO8, and NLO8 games. Jeff Hwang has a general Omaha list including some O8 that appears to be pretty old. For example, i currently play in a semiweekly LO8 game in Detroit that moved rooms about a year ago, but i don't see Michigan even listed on there.

So, maybe we should compile a list. I'll start. All fixed-limit unless otherwise noted.

USA

VEGAS
Last summer I played a pretty regular $8/16 (can't recall if a kill) at the Venetian during the WSOP. They also had an even more regular $4/8.

I think the Bellagio has $30/60 pretty regularly, but I haven't hunted down the appropriate B&M thread to verify this.

CALIFORNIA
Buzz says Hollywood Park, Inglewood, has a $40/80 and a $20/40 mix with stud 8. I played in a $6/12 with some sort of kill last summer at the Bicycle.

MICHIGAN
Greektown, Detroit:

$5/10 full kill
Saturdays, 7:00 (yes, 7 am) to somewhere between 20:00 and 24:00
Tuesday, 11:00, usually breaks before 17:00

Snookers, Utica
suiteddeuces runs a $1-2 PL game multiple times a week.


MISSISSIPPI

Tunica Resorts
I used to play in a $4/8 half kill at the Horseshoe, which had moved from the Gold Strike. This as of 2009.

NEW JERSEY
The Borgata thread on B&M seems to indicate that $10/20 goes pretty regularly. You can track it yourself at http://www.theborgata.com/poker_live_data.cfm

Re: List of live O8 games

WISCONSIN:
Potawatomi Bingo and Casino in Milwaukee runs a 3/6 LO8 every Saturday starting at about 9 AM and breaking anywhere from 2 PM to 2 AM the next Sunday morning. Call 414-847-7605 to reserve a seat up to 2 hours in advance.

ILLINOIS:
Hollywood Aurora saw several consecutive weeks of a Friday night 5/10 LO8 with a full kill this spring, but it hasn't run for a number of weeks now. It might be gone until next winter. They used to run a 10/20 game, but I'm told that most of THOSE regs do their own home game now to bypass the rake. Definitely call to check before making a special trip 630-801-7471.

Pair-a-Dice Casino in East Peoria runs a 1/2 PLO8 every Saturday starting at 7 PM, and Tuesday starting at 6 PM. Tuesdays sometimes even see 2 tables running if there's enough interest. Demand for NLHE prevents two tables from running on Saturday. Call (309) 698-6693 early on Saturday to get on the list if you plan to sit at 7 PM.

INDIANA:
Horseshoe Casino in Hammond, IN often sees a 40/80 LO8 game on Friday nights. I'm told that 5/10 LO8 games occasionally run on Saturday nights, but I've never seen it. Call (219) 473-6065
before making a special trip. (As far as low limit players know, Horseshoe spread BOTH kinds of poker, limit AND no limit holdem!*)

*Blue Brothers reference to their interaction with the bartender at Bob's Country Bunker.

Re: List of live O8 games

TUCSON, AZ

• Desert Diamond runs a $4/$8 LO8 game (with a full kill) pretty much daily.

• Casino Del Sol runs a $4/$8 full-kill mixed game (Stud H/L and O8, with occasional forays into H/L HE) most nights. Lately, it's been pretty dead on Mondays and Tuesdays, but hopefully that will change when the new poker room opens this summer.

Re: List of live O8 games

Ah yes... IIRC Casino Arizona runs like $4/8 and $8/16 pretty regularly, maybe higher.

I forgot one in Michigan: Palace Poker Room (charity) in Burton, near Flint, runs a $3/6 FK most days that starts around 15:00-16:00. The show from an octogenarian named JR every time he wins any part of a pot is worth traveling from wherever.

Re: List of live O8 games

Casino Arizona confirmed to run 4/8 and 8/16 daily with a half kill. Nothing higher unless it's part of a mix. Fort McDowell has 4/8 daily and Wild Horse Pass has 4/8 sometimes. WHP got a 2-100 spread limit O8 game going a few times after Black Friday but it seems to have died off now. Harrah's Ak-Chin regularly has a 3-6 Stud8/Omaha8/CrazyPineapple8 mix. Poker Nation, a strip mall card room, had an amazing 1-2 NL O8 game on Wednesday nights but they got shut down...not sure if the game moved somewhere else or not.
