Default Re: Foxwoods 1/2 NL game

I am not sure if they can go rake or not, but we did get a 1/2 NL game going pre boom. They made us pay time, which we felt was kind of a rape at the time. Not many people were playing at the time anyways, so it died out.

yeah but the times you win 4 pots in an hour you prob payed less in time then you would have payed if they raked the pot.. so I think its kind of a wash.
I play a tight style as well and I know what your saying about having to adjust to the looseness of these games. When I say nitty I mean more the personality of the players that constantly complain about paying time.
I just think 1/2 at foxwoods as so soft I dont get the constant complaining about paying time. and for me I dont get driving another 15 min to mohegan just to play in a game that is raked but I think alot of these complainers will go which will prob be good for the games at foxwoods after the inital "new room" factor dies down.

but to say time only affects nits is silly

Definite sign of a nit here. You should be focused on crushing one of the softest games on the eastern seaboard. Instead youre worried about a buck or two....

Key to crushing 1-2 at FW: Don't be a tight nit. Don't woory about the time charge. Enjoy yourself. Have a few too many drinks. Play a smart lag style and stack or outplay the nits with funny hands. Just make sure you can afford to lose 2-3 full buy ins a session.

It punishes everyone, only the "nits" are aware of it. time charge punishers tight players. But I'm more concerned about other things such as taking breaks. If I want to go get a sandwhich or have a smoke during the NL games. I am losing money because I paid for the half hour. In the raked games, you lose nothing at all for taking a break.

Is knowing this "nitty"? Nah.
