Normally it's 1/2 Deep and meta wise it usually runs with 5 straddles, if gazzy and bena are there cracking the funnies I can see why the 10 was being put on a lot

it's usually 1/2 deep or 2/5 deep, but it always seems to get mandatory straddles. Probably cus they know i'm such easy money and will fold aces every hand

Saw clients today and got football/busy tonight. Put in a session and booked another win at 200z. The difference between 200 and 500 is absolutely mental. Feel so so comfortable there. The main difference is donations. At 200 they're frequent but at 500 they're few and far between

        Been waiting for some green for a very very long time. Even though i got SUCH a long way to get out of this downswing, i won't complain

        Yeah, it's not a cooler. Me and the reg actually spoke at the table that it was too thin
