Oh yeah? I don't care what you write or what pictures you show or any other so-called "factual" evidence. A redbird is a $5 chip, period. Whatever you have to say to that, my response is "FU."

Ahh. So you really WERE calling me cheap for the $4 toke!

Heh, I don't win what you do. Keep that in mind... [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Lestat,

My experience at commerce is that since everyone is ordering potstickers + steak + salad + kalbi + a sandwich + ice cream + 3 bottles water + coffee + whatever else, they just always tip $5, so that's what I do too. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

What do you play there, El Diablo? Did I play with you a couple weeks ago in the 1-2 hold'em?

Lestat,

I haven't played there in a year, but next time I go I'll be playing 10/20 to 50/100 NL. Maybe a little 40-80 or 1-2 if I get bored of playing challenging games and want to meet some dumb LHE players. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Not to hijack my own thread, but...

I saw those NL games when I was there. Didn't really pay too much attention though. There was an ex bench warmer from the old Championship Bulls team who was in the game and looked like he was donating. The 50 game started just one day and broke shortly. Other than that...

It didn't look like there were too many chips on the table for that game. I mean, even a 10/20 no-max is supposed to play pretty big, right? But it didn't look like there was much more than 40k-50k on the table. I honestly think the 1-2 limit played a little bigger. But I'm sure I'm wrong. I hear that NL is a really big/good game. I've got to start learning NL one of these days. gl.

A couple of months ago I was visiting LA and played a night a the Commerce. I had been playing 6/12 HE chips and was getting a burned out, but didn't want to go back to my hotel so I decided to hop over to a 3/6 Omaha game. The didn't want my $3 chips there for some reason, only $1 chips. I sent my gf over to the cage with three racks of the $3 chips and said "get two racks of white, and the rest in cash". She comes back with 9 white chips and I'm thinking she stopped at the table games on the way back or something and then I see that they're $100 chips. All the old people at the table had a good laugh at us. "You're from the east coast, aren't ya?"
