75 mix starting back up again today at Muck for those interested. Should be going 2-3 times weekly again fairly soon.

HOE BigO is the usual rotation but can be a few combinations including the staple OE.

Exceeding unlikely. That 15/30 has moved around to various places. The key figure in organizing it is pretty adamant that the game should be 10-handed, $3 rake, no jackpot drop.

I think most of us would actually prefer the game to be 9 handed, but I can there will never be a jackpot drop in that game.

Any chance of the 2-2 plo starting up again at the Tulalip? It ran for at least one Saturday

All, what's the best casino for a player looking to play a NLHE game with a 500 max buy in?

How are Seattle games in comparison to L.A, S.D?

Muckleshoot for sure. And worse. But possibly better than Vegas.

Had the Fortune burger again, was as good as i remembered.

2/20 game was better this time. Had a good maniac gamblor who bet the max with K5 on an kxx flop.

I saw there was a list for the 22 plo at tulalip on Saturday. Would really like to see that fire

Thinking about checking out the hideaway big o game but fvck driving there after work

What's the rake for NLHE at muck? What makes Muck a better option than Fortune for NLHE?

Muck has 3/5 blinds, $300-$500 buyin spread-limit hold'em with a $500 maximum bet and a 4-bet cap. Some to many games 24/7 (check Bravo for details).

Fortune has a 2/2 blinds, unlimited buyin spread-limit hold'em with a $20 maximum bet and a 4-bet cap. At most 1 game which seems to run about half the time or less (check their website or app for details).

Choose whichever seems best to you.

Rake is $3 + $3 PSJ ("PSJ" in quotes for Muck) at both places.

Played at Muckleshoot 3 sessions while visiting Seattle this week. I have to say its one of the softest 3/5 games Ive ever played. There's no 1/2 NL game so anyone wanting to play NL (spread limit) has to play 3/5 and most of them have no business playing those stakes.

I'm headed up to Muckleshoot in a few weeks to check out games there. I've heard encouraging things, and I'm more than willing to take a reasonable reduction in earnings to avoid living in L.A.

I'm sure in 99% of the NL games in Las Vegas there is never a single bet over $500, and almost never more than 4 bets per street, so I can't imagine that cap makes a big difference.

$2000 per street...

Maybe you don't actually play 3/5 game to know how little effect those 2 rules have, except bet + 3 raises in pre-flop.

And the proper term you are looking for is "spread" hold'em, not limit.

Yeah, I can only think of a couple times the $500 cap was a factor in games I played, and both those times it was 5/5 with $10 limp, $1k buy in. The 4 bet cap can sometimes rear it's ugly head preflop though.

Also, what does it mean where someone posted a few posts up that people shouldn't be playing 3/5 at the Muckleshoot?

Um...I almost always play limit games, because they are actually fun. NL poker is almost always insanely boring, but if I am going to play it, I definitely want to play it against rich guys who want to gamble it up.
