If you're playing poker anywhere other than the Muck on the weekends, you're doing it wrong regardless of your reasons... The games there are still the nuts.

Id say the Fortune 1/3 is getting up there. People spewing racks on racks

Does make me question the long term health of the game, but then its only 1/3. No ones forcing u to donate chips

Thank Fortune for bringing the game here. Much better than the Tulalup

Do you think the new Fortune 1/3 game will take away from the Muckleshoot 3/5 action?

You would be wrong.

So you think most people that go to fortune look at 2 + 2 or have heard of it? I go there all the time and I would bet the under.

I'd bet 20% or less of players. But it's probably a lot more like 60% for the dealers.

What is the max buy-in and max bet for the 1/3 Fortune game?

Was looking for a day game alternative, but Fortune is not it. Most players buy in near minimum and play tight scared poker - OMG, it's no limit!

Might get more action off smaller games to lessen the intimidation factor.

Night games might be different though.

Played at fortune a few days back. I would say Tulalip is much juicier, people just want to have a good time, and you get a lot more random people throwing cash around. Fortune felt more like tightish poker, but not terrible. Most people bought in for 300 and there were 3 stacks over $900 deep at my table.

FORTUNE FOOD REVIEW: KUNG PAO CHICKEN

Really bad. Probably among the worst KPs I've ever had. Stingy portion of dried out chicken, peanuts tossed in as a garnish and not cooked. Rice was old and barely edible.

I have a feeling they need to tighten up the menu and make sure all thr food they offer is as good as it can be. Their chow fun noodles are great, but the KPC is utter doody. Hit and miss is not good!

Makes sense. Few other questions while we have you;
1) Why drive instead of fly to L.A.?
2) Do you ever stop at Bay 101 on the way and play?
3) Are the limit games in LA really that much better than everywhere else, or just bigger?

Anyone know the buy ins for Tulalips upcoming pow wow series? I'm sure there's a flier I can't seem to find...but the January poker link itself is devoid of buy in information.

3)Yes, bigger and better in everyway. Though I did hear the Fortune had 4 20s the other day....

What time period were you there? When I was there during the day time hours, players were actually praising one player for leaving with $900 because that's the "smart thing to do" to lock up a win.

Fortune spread game is very likely to hurt the Muck 3/5. Some of the action players might prefer the different game for a bit less $$. Then some of the 3/5 regulars might follow them over. Muck could respond by making some kind of smaller spread option, like Tulalip's 1/3. Overall I've been hearing the 3/5 games got much tougher the last 5-7 years. People who used to play 5/10 playing 3/5 and 3/5 players broke or playing 1/3 etc.

Yup. Always thought a Muck 1/3 would do well. Played some poker at the Muck. My experience is the Muck 2/5 plays bigger than the Tulalip 3/5, as a general rule. Glad Fortune has stepped up. The Tribals need some competition especially now with a major contraction in the Tribal poker room capacity. Go to the Tulalip on the weekend, the demand exists for higher stakes poker.

The Tribes screwed up big time fighting on-line poker in the State. On-line poker drives live cash poker.

If you're a losing player or believe that 3/5 has gotten much tougher in the last 5-7 years, what would you do? Play 1/3.

Spreading 1/3 won't help 3/5; it would simply kill it faster.
