for some crazy reason 1/3 plays a lot bigger than 1/2, but that's always been my experience.

MGM had the best chair I ever sat on in michigan. That there ends the glowing review of MGM. Whats the best night to walk in there? Might give it a third chance since its been about 6 years or so.
I think fri/sat nights are probably best, the club goers come to the tables after 2am, drunk and ready to gamboool.....but have not played there enough to say this is where its at, gotta be here, just my 2 cents.....and those chairs are like a little slice of heaven....dealers were meh, kinda slow, but knew what they were doing atleast...honestly the next time i'm gonna put in a 8hr+ session i'm going to mgm just for the comfy chair

Grats on the cash, bro.

Idk I think calling there is probably fine, but I also think most passive players are not shoving without at least two pair.

I would agree. I think 1/3 is closer to 2/5 than to 1/2 ime. I would be glad to have either 2/5 or 1/3 being spread in my local room. It would probably mean the local poker economy was doing good.

tyty I had ~340K chips vs ~290K and ~240K. We chopped $2391/$2291/$2141 I think. Blinds were about to go up to 10K and everyone seemed to have a good understanding of push/fold so probably a fair chop (?). And I won the flip for the hat!

It was my first tournament at Cada's and I thought the structure was perfect throughout. My stack was all over the place but I don't think I was ever below 18bb. Yes the girl who finished 4th was very good and relentless. I was fairly aggressive opening but my 3-bet bluffs were not working at all. I think I had 4 light 3-bets and every time I was insta 4bet jammed on. But I made up for it winning flips and hitting a lot of flops.

Cada PLO8

Great game tonight with good guys.

Good depth and everyone playing hands.

The new chips only fit 19 to the rack. Hand counting all the cash outs.

Cadas PLO8, I run good with drunk blondes. Her boyfriend took a pretty bad beat today to the tune of 300-350 I think. Good times, good times.

Congrats!

My read on you is that your light 3 bets suck, but your light cold 4 bets are gold.
