Close to 200. I'm thinking it'll go down to around 35 by end of year.

You need to look at the sample sizes required to draw meaningful conclusions in LLSNL. 200 hours is nothing. You should pay much more attention to reciprocalities/tangible reasons or observations that demonstrate your superiority.

About 500 hours can tell you if you win or not most of the time. But a 500 hour downswing is not unheard of for winners. Someone must run on the left side of the tail and it could be you someday. 1k hours is a minimum to get anywhere near your long term winratre. And by then, the game and your skill level will likely have changed.

I've played 4 of the last 5 Sundays there, and have seen 2-3 names max on the $100 SNG list, and have never heard of one actually running.

Where can I ask questions about specific players? What are the rules on that? There is a particular young Asian guy whi wears a black leather jacket. I just wonder wear he gets his money because I have seen him drop $1,000-$2,000 in just a few hours with his reckless play.

How is the PLO action? Right or good games?

WTF? No more bad beat?

I asked the Jack Cle account on twitter and got no answer-what's the rake breakdown in the Poker Classic?

I Believe it was $100 on the last $750

Is there any way to find out for sure?

Customer service has really gone downhill at this place. I hope we get another place to play.

Was there today printing money like usual. The suits are going around to all the tables and removing the red decks and turned off the shufflers. Found out later someone had marked them with some sort of fluorescent device.

This guy was a solid poster. Gonna miss him.

Um, is this for real about the alleged (attempted?) cheating? Can anyone else corroborate?

Apparently Jack Cincinnati had a card in the red deck that had some sort of blemish. That’s why they took out the red decks in case they were bad as well. At least, that’s the official version. I suspect foul play. There have been other incidents.

Can anybody tell me how many players they usually get for the 12 PM tournaments on Fridays? I'm going next week and I'm just wondering what to expect.

Expect every pot to be a family pot regardless of pr flop action.

Lovely. Should be interesting then.

You going this Friday? I may punt the $100 for the LOLs then jump into a cash game.

Yes, the 12 pm tournament. Any idea how many people they usually get?

Not many. I almost only play cash though I shipped the Wednesday noon tourney for just over $2,000. It has a lot of old people as hey get a few extra starting chips for being old and decrepit.

or young and stupid...

Anyone here about the new 2/3 game they will be spreading? Anyone play in this yet?

Honestly this is where I play the most and in general the toughest 1/3 game I’ve ever played in is in cleveland

I agree that 1/3 in cle is tougher than elsewhere. I have been out of town, haven't heard about a 2/3 game. Played 1/2 in Tampa on Tues afternoon and my god was that an easy game to beat. All the games there looked so good.

Best floor ruling ever at the Jack. Player goes in. I call. Cards run out. Player shows one card, which has paired the board. Refuses to show second card. Floor tells me I have to either table my hand or muck. I inform them I need to see his second card before I can make that decision as I don’t have enough information to know if I have a winning hand or not. Floor kills my hand. Prior to that a player announces all in. I can’t see his stack. Dealer says it’s $80. I put in $80. Cards run out. His hand is best. Turns out he had a black hidden behind the $80. Floor tells me the all in is for $180. I refuse to pay the additional $100 as the amount told to me pre was $80 and I may have made a different decision. Place is worse than nautica was.

Lol so that's what happened at 19. I'm at table 20.
