On average the 2-5 will consist of 1-2 top regs, 5-6 nit regs, 1 fish. From my experience maybe 1 out of 6 tables is beatable with the new rake structure.
Good job playground
I recently made my first trip to playground in almost a year, and second ever. The above was exactly my experience, and as a 2/5 player, I was quite disappointed. The action at 2/5 is noticeably worse than last year, and the tables are much reggier.
I much preferred the old, brighter, larger room with its high ceilings. The new third floor room is quite dimly lit with low ceilings which isn't a great vibe. The menu has also gotten slightly worse, with the carrot cake and cheesecake gone from the desserts.
However, it is still a positive experience, especially when compared to southern ontario. But is evident that the recent changes are not player friendly, and definitely moving things in the wrong direction.
I found it comparatively quite disappointing. I had been planning to make trips out there relatively frequently, maybe monthly during the summer. However, when factoring the drive and hotel costs, I am not sure it is really worth it over the average 2/5 game in my local casino.
