brand new home game i have never been to. my friend from my usual game invited me saying its a great game and i decided to check it out. place is shady as hell and didnt really seem too secure, but i was there and i trust him so i went along with it.
its a 1-2 game with a min bet of $5....even if you limp, its $5. its a 200-500 buy in and avg player is in for 250. this is first hand of the night. i bought in for 400 to cover the table and bc i was expecting a deeper game. this game doesnt allow you to run it more than once, so no business and if youre all in you dont have to show until the board is ran out.
villain is on button. is an older (55+), tan, guido with gold jewelry, watch, hair slicked back etc. looks identical to paulie from sopranos. he is one of the guys that runs the game and is sitting in bc we are short, he says he plays from time to time. i talked to him before game started and very nice, friendly guy but have no background on him. my friend didnt really tell me much, just that the game was worth coming to. this is first hand of the night and we are 7 handed at the moment. hes in for 300
