Hey all. I'm looking for roomate(s) up in the Sac area. Posted here but haven't had any luck. Mods said OK but I hope no one is upset that I post it here also. Drop me a PM if you might be interested in renting a house in Sac area. Would absolutely love to live with fellow grinders. Here are my stats fwiw. hope to find something soon.

Rent is about $1000 for a nicer studio up here. From a poker point of view the another option is Rocklin/Roseville/Lincoln so that you can play at Thunder Valley without commuting the 20+miles from downtown. Capitol Casino is downtown and has regular 1/3 and 2/5 games (maybe 5/10 also) but most people prefer TV these days from what I gather.

For the time being though, I would still be playing 90% online (on merge for as long as that lasts). Really, I just like the idea of living with other poker players and I think the ultimate scenario would be to make / join a grindhouse with multiple people somewhere.

How is the cardroom at thunder valley?

Does anybody here play at Folsom Lake Bowl at all? Any advice on when the best days/times to play are or when (if ever) they run 2/5 or higher?

I think I saw someone buy in for $60 once. When I play, which is at the beginning of the day, many buy in for $100 to $120 or so. Very few buy in for the $300 max.

Probably coincidental but this thread has died since it moved to this forum.

I've noticed this as well, so I'll ask a question..

How is the phoenix card room? Never been there, but was thinking of trying out some of their promos.

Play for 24 hours straight and they pay you a 24 hour jackpot.

. I was wondering where the informative brick and mortor threads had gone. I just now noticed the regional link. Not so sure about this change. Seems to be a graveyard type section.

Has the 5-10 game at TV been going lately?

5-10 at TV goes sparingly. It went last night but broke quickly. It's been running often at Cap.

Moving this thread was the worst thing to happen to it. I could hear crickets in here

Err, no I meant better.

Better structure, less rake, and the players are a bit worse.

are you talking tournaments or cash games? The tournaments are way better in Reno than sac and it isn't close- we have no casinos that focus on tournaments here. I would imagine the cash game action is better here though especially if there aren't tournaments running in reno at that time.
