Trust me, you guys have it good up there and anyone who thinks $1/$2 isnt profitable under these conditions needs to get better at poker.
I know the room that you speak of so don't forget the $2 "preferred parking." Would it be fair to say that this is the juiciest room that you ever play in? Not one player is there for comps, not one player has an issue with rake, not one player has an issue with paying to chop. They are there simply to gambol is up!
Now to be fair, I'm not sure if you have any Foxwoods or Mohegan Sun experience but the 1/2 games up here are not comparable in any way, shape or form to those in any of the FL rooms I've played. If you're a winning 1/2 player in these rooms you'd be a 2/5 crusher down there. I actually know two who transitioned and are actually that. They still have it so so good in CT.
