Stud 8 / H.O.R.S.E. Live: Where to find a game?
 

I specialize in Stud 8 and HORSE and I wanted to know if someone could help me out and let me know where I could find a Casino that regularly spreads either of these two games. I play online and I want to branch out into live play but everyone I've talked to said its impossible to find a game. Any help would be appreciated.

Where do you live?

Well I'm from Cleveland, OH so that'd be east coast. However, I want to make a trip somewhere in December so close would be nice but it does not have to be. Hoping for a commercial area tho like LV, AC, Foxwoods, etc. I'd rather not go to some redneck area in Kentucky or anything. That's about the only restriction I have, just need something to do when I'm not at the tables.

OP, be aware that you can't yell profanities at your opponent live... maybe it's not for you given your spasms online

I just made an account finally to second this point. I believe you called me a monkey [censored] for playing 3 to a straight flush in stud8 to crack your aces. It was cute.

You won't find HORSE or stud/8 as such, but in AC they have 0/8-Stud/8 mixed games. 15/30/45, 3/6, and sometimes (mostly during tournaments 50/100 at the Taj. 10/20 at Borgata and maybe 100/200 HOE.

Bellagio in LV has a 40/80 mixed game, with stud/8, badugi, triple draw low, 0/8, and stud high. Most of those games are illegal in AC. It ran all the time during the WSOP, and I think it runs fairly regularly otherwise. They also have high stakes and very high stakes mixed games.

During the WSOP at the RIO, they often have 50/100 stud/8.

In Europe, there are sometimes pot limit dealers choice games that include stud, stud/8 and Omaha variants.

Remember, live you are single tabling with half the hands per hour, so you play higher stakes than online.

The stud/8-0/8 games in AC and the stud/8 game at the WSOP have mostly players past retirement age.

A year and a half ago I played in a 50-100 HOSE game one night in a week I spent at Foxwoods. They spread 75-150 half-stud half-stud/8 regularly too.
