I've only tried the 1/2 and I wasn't impressed. Next time I'm out I'll definitly sit at 5/10 and give it a go.

They don't spread 1-2?

2/5, 5/10, 10/20 and 20/40.

I just came in from a session of 5-10

The floor collects it, stop by customer services on your way in next time and they will give you a new one.

I'm thinking of taking a year off from NLHE at Niagara and playing limit at Brantford (starting at 5/10 then moving to 10/20). Any advices?

Definitely a lot of cheating going on in the 20/40 game, so be careful if you do play in it.

A very broad charge. I've only played there occasionally so I have nothing knowledgeable to say but I didn't notice anything wrong, and I would be interested in what you have to say in support of this accusation.

I do know that this has come up a few times in pokerforum.ca threads.

I played the tournament at brantford on labour day long weekend. I heard this story. Alot of people not happy. 20-40 may not run anymore because of that.

On another note, there was a list for pineapple and 4-8 O8. Never ran from what I saw.

Play 10/20. The 5/10 game is so dry and it is a 1 chip 2 chip game IMO that doesn't stimulate great action. The 10/20 game is a 2 chip 4 chip game and that game there seems to generate lots of action. Playing that 5/10 game is boring, although the kill has made that game a bit better. 10/20 game there is where you can make some decent coin if you play good and lots of action.

I will never play in that 20/40 game there ever again, I played a 20/40 session there a few weeks ago..came out a small winner from that session but you can definetly see some fishy stuff going on in that game.

Played the 5/10 kill game 3 times this week, really soft IMO, a lot of passive limp call play.
How's the 10/20? I haven't played still learning limit.

10/20 plays like the 5/T

some regs there vbet a bit better but still miss a lot of lol value.

there is also no rake at 10/20 and just a session fee charge.

If you can sit at the right table 10-20 it's a gold mine. Avoid the regs and stick to the tables with softer players

Send me a message when your going again and I can meet up with you there, semi reg

No, but from my own personal experience, Brantford's comps do not accumulate quickly.

2/5 Limit, 5/10 Limit, 10/20 Limit and I believe 20/40 Limit are the games that are regularly spread.

I'd imagine the 2/5 and the 5/10 run 24/7. How about the bigger games?

I haven't played the bigger games myself, but every time I've been (evenings and weekends) all four have been running. I imagine you could have your choice if game from about 10am until well after midnight.
