Action was good enough to overcome rake. Last hand of my night sitting in front of $300, wild player potting pre every hand and had just rebought for 300 and 2 others that were way over 1,000 repoting. I have AKJ 10 double suited. Pot pot pot pot 3 way all in. Flop Q 8 3 two diamonds, so i have nut flush and gutter for nut straight. Turn blank River A. My ace bested deep stack, guy that rebought beats me with 10 888 and flopped a set.
Twin Rivers has become the easiest to play at, 30 miles door to door. Foxwoods offered me no rooms or points so no point in going there. Booked every Wednesday and Thursday in Feb. Just got March so i'll try to book those.
Rock is alternative since the Game of the Future at Foxwoods is 2-5 plo, and I'm not nearly rolled for that, and that game can be wild too. But as I've said 1-2 plo at the Rock can become a 1-2-8-28 game with the right players.
There was a funny mother daughter team that one was getting felted every other hand. When the daughter got felted, she would wait to rebuy and rail her mother and tell her what to do in arabic, such a violation of one player per hand, and when confronted she would say they were talking about something else. On one hand she was screaming at her mother to table a winner, but for the most part her helping her mother was not much of an issue based on her own play.
Sometimes the rules are not quite followed based on I think people who are regulars or favored to the room. But that can happen in most rooms. In general the floor is ok, and the dealers in PLO are very very proficient.
MJ, have you played up there?
Occasionally players are giving advice while in a hand, but its usually those who are fairly clueless anyway. The better players are not colluding, and are following appropriate protocol.
A few weeks ago, the board came down AAx-A-A. It was checked to the river, and I lead out with 99xx. I get insta-called, and someone else folds JJxx. The insta-call shows her naked Kxxx thinking she has the nutz.
