Ocean's 11 or Vieja's are your best bets, IMO. I wouldn't say the action is crazy either place, but the players are definitely bad.

this sweet link I recently found has info on the limits at Ocean's 11 if you scroll all the way to the right.

Vieja's is low stakes altogether, so you could probably find a game you want there.

Viejas has alot of tables with low stakes. I have played there a few times and enjoyed myself. Nice casino and the food isn't bad.

I don't know if any of you know this but Barona runs some decent promotions for their cardroom :

http://www.barona.com/casino/poker.html

- (MRA) Morning Rack Attacks

Every Sunday through Saturday morning from 9:45am to 12:15pm.
One table will be randomly drawn every half-hour (9:45am, 10:15am, 10:45am, 11:15am, 11:45am, and 12:15pm) to have $100 added to the next pot.

- (AC) Aces Cracked, Win A Rack

Every Monday through Friday from noon to 4:00pm
If a Hold ‘Em player loses with pocket Aces and the pot qualifies, the player wins a rack of $1 chips ($100)
To qualify the pot must contain at least $20

- Padres and Poker

During select televised games (see Poker Room Calendar of Events for selected games and times)
Each time a Padre scores a run, one live-play table will be randomly drawn and a $100 Rack Attack will be added to the pot.
Rack Attacks will be awarded after the Padres have completed their at bat in the inning. If the Padres score more runs than there are tables going, then each table will receive a Rack Attack and the remaining awards will be drawn for the tables to receive a second Rack Attack.
A maximum of $100 will be added to any one hand. If a table was drawn two or more times for a single inning, the next award will be added after the previous award has been won.
Three bonus Rack Attacks ($300) will be awarded if the Padres win the game.
This promotion may be canceled if the game cannot be televised due to blackout, power failure, rain out, etc.

* Maybe some of you know this already but several people at my tables didn't know about these. I'm not sure how new they are.

I thought this was funny :

"At 20/40 limit and 5/5 NL, food is free."

I always feel like a degenerate eating at a casino, but today I broke my own rule. I got a cheeseburger and fries and my total was $1.25. I think 20/40 & 5/5 players can spring a buck and a quarter.

Ocean's 11 by far. it is the most direct drive and they spread a large number of games. As mentioned above you can get good food for VERY VERY cheap. The cherries are great for dessert.

The atmosphere at Barona is great during a Pads game though...the rack attack is pretty cool. Lower limits though.
