Default Re: NL max buyin games? Casino/Floor people please read

Although the sample size was small (one play), the Wynn was the only small NL game where I was in a game where the pot was chopped (i.e., no action, the blinds took their money back) on six straight hands.

This has never happened in any fixed buy game I've played in. At the lower blind levels these games typically generate far more action by reducing intimidation among other factors.

I think your sample is generally accurate on just about given day for the 1/3 game. However the 2/5 and up games it is very rare to see chopped pots, or non raised pots for that matter, unless you get a really bad table, then there will be lots of limped pots.

I typically gravitate to no cap games, and have played in most of the ones spread in LV at least once. I can assure you that it is not typical to have a weak/tight/passive table in these games.

Personally I love the no cap format, but I can definately see the fear that card room management has for busting the fish too quickly. These games are not for a weak, fearful or short rolled. I just hope that the boom keeps going for several years more, becuase surely no cap games will some of the first to die off.
