Vancouver, BC - Page 7 - Venues & Communities -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Hey guys. I haven't been to the new Grand Villa Room yet but I'm planning on going this friday night. I've been looking at their twitter and it seems like they only have 1/2 and maybe a 1-2-5 game most nights. Do they have a 2/5 NL on the weekends regularily or is it mostly 1/2 with the occasional 1-2-5 game?

once..it is very deep stacked. if you are prepared for variance, there seems to be pretty good action.

Anyone in Vancouver need PokerStars money, I need cash and will pay vig. Can meet anywhere downtown. Have 10k but can do smaller trades if needed.

Looking for a room to rent Sept 1st in Vancouver area, preferably downtown, kits, or somewhere central... not trying to live in bum**** surrey. I've been here on and off since May and was renting a 2BR with a fellow MTT player but he's going to Mexico for WCOOP and finding a 1BR short term on cl is kinda tough. PM me!

500 min buy 1500 max, i think its a good game to game select can def make a ton in the right lineup. 1-2 plo is amazing though $200 min buyin no max and full of terrible players imo

NewYorkguy is right the 2-5 at edge is really high variance as everyone is playing 300-500bbs deep and it plays way bigger than 2-5 as opening raises are 25-40 but the play is generally very bad. The occasional decent grinder but LOTS of fish looking for a game and that's usually the biggest they spread there. Def +ev for anyone regularily reading this forum with a brain.

Are there ever any big cash games in the area...maybe a private game? Looking for 5-10+, preferably 10-25 or 25-50 NL or NL/PLO. If anyone knows of a private game or something PM me. I live downtown.

I've seen river rock spread 10/25 NL late Saturday nights. You could call a few rooms and ask, they might have an interest list going

Fraser Downs: buddy shoves all in for his last +\-$80... Gets two callers then proceeds to flop a royal flush which pays +\-$180 high hand jackpot... Sad part is that a 9 turned, with a K high flush paying close to $700.

Only time I've heard someone bitch about a royal...
