Around 40 in the 11a, 40ish in the 2pm qualifier, and 98 in the Main. If we don't get 98 in the main tomorrow, we will have to add enough to make it like there was 98!
There was an Open Face Chinese game going yesterday at Running Aces. It was short handed and only lasted about an hour but it's nice to see something other than Hold Em running. It does raise the question on what games are they trained and authorized to spread. Could they deal 2/7 triple draw, razz, or draw poker?

They have run HORSE and Big O before, in tournament play at least.
If somebody ever wants to organize starting triple draw they could PM me. Ideally at least several days in advance cause I don't play live often enough to keep a cash bankroll.
Been playing at RA a bit after a few years off of poker. Enjoying the card room and staff so far, the regularity with which you can find a 2-100 SL/SL straddle game is really nice.
I have been out of the area for half a year and see on their website they are now offering SitNGo Tournaments - are these 9 or 10 handed and how often do they run?
Just back from WSOP and saw a lot of the big MN pros and better players down there so this might be a great time to try a bigger tourney locally like the Running Aces Easy Money or Team Battles in June while they are all absent.
PS - Also saw many RA dealers at the WSOP and chatted with a few of them as well.
Last night was my 2nd time at the Running Aces Poker room, and I really liked it a lot! I don't have a lot of experience in live poker, but the competition at the 2-100 table didn't seem too reg-heavy.

Yeah you can definitely find a good 2/100 spread game if you are willing to move around, especially now with most of the pros in Vegas. If you ever wanted to step up and try 2/100 spread now through early July would be the time!
Oh, yuck, gross, max bet $100 just sunk in, for some reason I was only thinking of it with regard to Texas holdem, didn't consider Omaha. So there are just no big NL or PL games in casinos there. Ouch. Guess I'll have to find a good PLO home game (in another forum, I know).
Yeah 2/100 spread Omaha High running almost every night. Also, they have really got more Limit Hold Em games going lately. 4/8 runs almost every day and they are even getting 6/12 LHE and Omaha8 or better going many nights a week as well. If you live on the east or north side of the Twin Cities and want to play limit I would seriously consider checking out these games as well as the great promotions RA has daily.
Well, the promotions are a joke and the room has steadily dwindled...the only action game left in the house is the 2-100 Omaha. They just instituted a $200 min-buy, uncapped. Basically draws the same group of people plus a random shot-taker (I wouldn't know anything about that...).
Lack of interest in spreading other limits/lack of interest in other games kinda makes it a losing proposition for me. The 2-100 HE is fairly loose still but the action has moved to Canterbury.
Someone help put some life back into this place. Anybody wanna try and get a mixed/HORSE running between 4/8 and 10/20? Or even solid Razz? Hello? Echo?
