Toronto - Page 11 - Venues & Communities -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

I read previously about people wanting to get together and start a study group. I would love to host a study group and discuss limit hold'em and possible limit Omaha high strategy. Pm if your interested. I live near Keele and 401. I have a private loft we can use with lots of parking. Would like to start this possibly early next week. - Cheers

There has been a lot of talk about a strategy talk so here we go I'll take a shot at it:

Limit Holdem Strategy (and whatever else comes up) discussion meet and greet August 25th 7:30pm

Tim Hortons
1 Paisley Court, Whitby, ON L1N 9L2 (right off of the 401)

Let me know if you are in
I'll put together a short list of Limit Holdem discussion points geared towards $4/8 through $15/30 cash that might be interesting....

I'm new to the area so it would be great to just meet some fellow 2+2ers

Maybe we could meet up at CNE by the casino there? That seems like a more central location....any feedback? anyone?

Rama is a hole! The big warehouse up north with nothing else in the area!

I've got to say, I went there last week and was seated right away. Those extra tables have actually helped out. Maybe they got a new floor person as well because the lasy was actually helpful!

The reference was to Fallsview - I can't speak for Casino Niagara.

Very kind, received. Is there at least a Toronto skype group if the IRL meets didn't fly? If there is still interest, I'm msblueberry4l on there. If you add, just note you're from the TO thread.

At Fallsview last night. Played 5-5PLO until they called me to 2-5 NL.

New rule: You can only ask to see your opponents cards at showdown if you're in the hand.

I was there around 10pm, got onto 2-5NL at 12. By 1:30, 3 tables had closed. WTF.
They're running sats for the Fallsview Poker Classic right now.
