the 5/10 nl game i was in a few weekends ago was sick ..i played for 2 hours and won 4500. good sesh...fatburger to top off a nice run

What does everyone mostly play here - what limits? I only play 2/5 NL after moving up from 1/2 when I was younger. Just graduated college here and was wondering what HORSE stood for? Thanks

I personally love the Borgata and only play there exclusively. 2/5 can be very fun and profitable some times, and others the cards don't drop your way and you lose your first buy in or 2. happy holidays everyone

Game report please?

FWIW for those who wanted to play that pink HOE game - the entire starting table was a group of us (degen friends) that arranged to get together and meet up.

That was a HUGE portion of why it went, there was never more than one "local" in the game until we broke off. That being said, I'm not sure if its sustainable as a long term option (look how fast the 4/8 HOSE dropped). I'd love to see sustained low limit mixed games, as I'm not a big holdem fan, but I'm not terribly optimistic.

The game is normally played with an eight game rotate. This means that eight hands of each game is played and then change to the next game and play eight hands, and so on and so on.

I was very surprised to see the 4/8 HOSE game resurface on both Fri. & Sat.
Who knows, maybe it can develop into a Sat.-only game like it did for 4-5 weeks in the spring ?
Anyway, I think it's a step in the right direction.

You will def. see a mix of chips in the 5/10 game. I usually just buy 4 sticks of green and color down enough to play between paying time (unless they are time potting it which is pretty standard) and the rare pot I drag

blacks are certainly welcome in the game. The regs will b1tch a lil bit if you are constantly cutting out a $275 raise with reds but other than that you won't hear any complaints.

Isn't that the one of the best parts of playing in a 5/10 game though?

Lol. Just buy in w/ greens and at MOST 1 stack of reds. There are usually enough red chips on the table that you'll be fine w/ just buying in with greens. Don't buy in with like 500+ in red.

I like cutting huge stacks of reds though it makes me feel like a baller lol.

JK JK Buying in for stacks of green is the way to go.

How about whites and reds? Then I can 4-bet my standard 483 dollars. ALWAYS gets the regs off big hands like 10-9 suited.

I personally would like to see the 4/8 or PC HOSE going weekly. We actually almost got the 4/8on Saturday switched to PCG. I would like to try to get a game going on Saturday mixed game lower limit. I enjoyed playing the 10/20 2way game but was told that game no longer runs on the weekends because the FOPs have determined they want O h/l only. These are the same folks trying to stop any pcg O h/l from starting on the weekends because it breaks their game. I prefer 2-way games. Can we start a list of interest here to get people to come on Saturday to get the game going?

Can we try to get nineinchal to promise to come and play HOSE so we can attempt to figure out who the man behind the mystery is?

I tried to get a list going over the weekend and the gal at the podium said they cannot add a list for pc multi-way games.

What is the structure for the PCG again? (e.g. Blinds, betting limits). Are the blinds $7.5 & $15? Is it limit or no limit?

FX

Blinds are $5 - $7.50 (2 chip/3 chip)

The game is a 3/6 game....using pink ($2.50) chips.

It's Limit

You can bet and raise in increments of $7.50 pre-flop and on the flop and increments of $15 on the turn and river.

Yes I know Exactly who you are talking about and for the life of me I forget his name. On Friday he was c/c'ing me down and checked the river. I checked and flipped up AK UI. He then throws out a bet and said he never checked. I know he checked and I also know the dealer know that this guy pulls this crap so I say, "you checked, I showed" and then sit back and go silent until the dealer does the right thing and says the river is checked his hand is Ace high. He mucks.
He does stuff like this all the time and no one says anything basically because he is fantastic for the table. If I am sitting next to him though I switch seats and do not get up from the table until I get to change seats.

Make it a charity game for my favorite charity, I'll show...

I can see their (Borgata's) rationale.

As far as pink chip O8/stud 8/2-way/HOSE go, they do bleed into the player pool for the 10/20 2-way game. Which should probably be spread just as 10/20 half-kill O8, which leads me to...

...keeping pink chip LHE thriving, a 4/8 HOSE game getting spread every Sat./busy times, and spreading a 10/20 O8 game seems to make sense.

I also noticed a 5/10 O8 game in one of the live game reports from the weekend. IMHO, it's a good idea to develop a 'feeder' game that won't directly interfere with the 10/20 O8.

Whites do not play in 5/10
sorry no $483 for you.

okay but how bout in 2/5? can i pop it up to 192?

LOL, yes you can "pop it up to 192" in 2/5. I will be myself playing the lovely 2/5 at the borgata this weekend. cheers, nova 09

I Feel that whites should not be in play for 2-5 either, except to post the small blinds, I had this one idiot last week who kept on betting $31, $36, $17 etc, it made no sense and was annoying everyone on the table

hey Stan, what stakes did the BBJ hit at yesterday and what was the hand if available, thanks

there's your answer as to the reason why he was doing it. And it obviously worked.
