Got there Thursday night for a Friday morning game, the poker room is small and they do not have Bravo which is why I've never been there before because I didn't know the game availability. The small poker room is fairly nice, the game began at approximately 10:30 in the morning with 6 players. One thing of note with this game, if at any point there is less than 9 people at the table, they play five cards versus the normal for cards that you would get. I've never done this before but it didn't impact my play or my profitability at all. The game was full of very loose gamblers with two or three people who actually were there to make money I was one of them. I just couldn't believe the amount of money that the gamblers kept pulling out of their pockets over and over and over. Some of these guys were into this game 2 - $3,000 and went broke. In the first 6 hours I was probably up $700. again, this game was full of gamblers it is an absolute Gem of a game to go if you're there to make money most of the people didn't know a good starting hand if it hit him in the head, pretty much everybody was playing every single hand except me and another guy. So when we did hit a hand we were scooping some pretty big pots. And the other guys just kept every buying for 500 bucks at a time. One of the gamblers was so frustrated at his losses he was begging the table to go to 30-60. Eight of us agreed one of us said no so it's stayed where it was. without a doubt, I am going back to that game in two weeks. It was even better than the Beau Rivage that I went to last month. My goal had been $1,000 per day while I was there I only made $700 the first day and they didn't know if the game was going to go on Saturday so I left. I should have stayed because the game went later at about noon and it was even better than it was before one of the players that texted me telling me that I needed to get up there immediately because it was a little crazy unfortunately I had left by then. One of the players kind of saw that I knew what I was doing, and bought me dinner to chit chat with me a little bit about 08 which I thought was really nice gesture and I chatted with them for a little while. Just need to remember it a game like this do not get sucked in with the gamblers lots of for bedding prior to the Flop even, as long as you don't get sucked in with the gamblers then you'll be fine play your game don't worry about the gamblers you play your cards like you normally would play but don't get sucked up with ****tier cards just because the pockets so huge that's an easy thing to do.

Went again, it went well. My biggest pet peeve is that most people do NOT understand the concept of being Quartered. They will cap it with nut low every time, over and over.

In the game you describe, I would probably cap the nut low, haha. Sounds like you typically will have more than 4 people at the river and often be called by any low. The times you are the only low will make up for times you are quartered (or, unfortunately, 6thed).

Less likely to do so in Big O, though.
