Hi,

Anyone here (im sure there are some) that play regularly or semi regularly at crown? What limits?
I occasionaly talk about 2p2 at the tables, to see if anyone else is a 2p2er, and i barely ever get a knowing look.

And by talk i dont mean "give away what and where"...dont worry your secret is safe, just using it as a way to identify any other potential 2p2ers.

Hi Dark Mace,

I play at Crown about 3-4 times a week, mostly grinding $1-$2 NL and sometimes hitting $2-$3 NL.

How about yourself???

hey Dan,

Im very much the same. Mainly grind out the 1/2 occasionaly play some 2/3. Im there as much as i can be, but across work its sometimes hard.
Normally there 3-4 times a week, and normally later at night, after 11pm.

Maybe we've played together. Maybe i've taken money off you? (hopefully not the other way around)

How does anyone make money playing 1/2 there after rake? I mean you can make money, but it's hardly worth the effort.

made 1k not a week ago at 1/2. Took a whole...4 hours. I wasnt running neccesarily hot, but ive come out with numbers of 500-800 on a good ranged sample. Equally ive lost 200-300 per session, but the winnnings are typically greater.

The terrible players more then make up for the rake.

I tend to play 5/10 Limit (mostly Fridays & weekends) & tournaments (occasionally during week, but again, mostly weekends).
Occasionally play 1/2 or 2/3 NL & liked the 2/4 PLO game a few weeks back on Tuesday.
Managed to win this Thursday's tourney too, so its been a good month!

I will be there next month. Assuming they will have juicy games going during the Aussie Millions, what are the usual or highest NLHE games spread regularly night to night? 5/10, 10/20, 25/50?

Have they indicated what cash games? (NLHE, PLO) will be during the tournament and at what levels? Thanks and look forward to playing with you guys for a couple of weeks.

bdub, they will run whatever games there is interest for. During the vic champs and pokernews cup they had 5/10 - 25/50 and i think there was interest for bigger games

i've no doubt that i've played with some of you here, and i'm sure if you've played with me you'll remember me too.

I played crown for the first time on Fri. 2-3NL.

Joe Hachem, Jason Alexander, Peter Hallier, Mick Malloy and some others were playing at a table right in the very back corner. Is this something that regularly happens?

Is there anywhere else to play poker in Melbourne?
