Thanks for sharing about the experience. That would be great if Legends did start spreading a 2/5 game. Good luck!
I played the 2/5 game at MCC on May 9th, Monday night. I'm sure it's not the best day to play for action. When I got there, I was part of a new table that started, mostly with players that were in the 300-2000 game (assuming that's 5/10). It played mostly like a 5/10, with quite a bit of straddling, and large pre-flop raises, along with frequent 3 bets.
Most of the players seemed competent, as well as aggressive (sometimes to a fault). I must have looked like scared money, until I picked off the laggiest of players firing 3 barrels, when all I had was top pair decent kicker. That accounted for most of the $800 I ended up ahead that evening.
I assume that most of the games are a little more passive/loose than the one I was in.
