Oaks Card Club in Emeryville, CA
 

I know it is illegal to have NLHE in Emeryville, but does this place spread one of those NL/Spread limit Hold'em things were the max you can bet on any round is $200 or something?

Doesn't look like it:

MarkT is very thorough; I'm pretty sure he'd have mentioned it if it were spread there.

I was there on 7/14 while traveling. No it didn't spread any sort of NL or (wide) Spread Limit game.

There was discussion about it between a regular and the floor, but no real info to be gleaned about exactly why not.

no, theyd have a tough time competing against several real NL games nearby

Where are these NL games located?

Casino San Pablo and Cache Creek have nl games.

I think Artichoke Joe's is spreading NL again.

Re: Oaks Card Club in Emeryville, CA
 

Just got back from Oaks 10 minutes ago. The spread 15/30, and on busy nights 30/60, but no spread/NL games. San Pablo: yes, Lucky Chances: yes.

Do they have NL here now? This article implies they do.

Anyone have any recent reports on this place? (Heading to Cal game tomorrow and might hit it up)

This is only true in the sense that they can offer it. However, no one is going to play under the proposed structure:

1-1-2 blinds with a $500 min buy in.

Either cater to the lower end players or high end players, but don't try to go in the middle.
