Meh. I'd want to keep playing, but it sucks being the only holdout to a chop. If you're comfortable with being singled out and having people gun for you, then keep playing - otherwise...

Re: Harrahs in New Orleans, strange rake method.
Search for time charge or time rake. There's a lot of posts about it. At 2/5 I don't think it's detrimental. You will never convince me that HNO didn't implement this policy because the 1/2 NL...

Re: I think rake by the hour sux
I agree with this. A $6/down charge is equal to 24 hands/hour full rake at the $5/hand typical around here. Even at $4/hand is only 30 full rake hands.
1/2 NL generates a lot of less than fully...

Re: Best 2/5 games in Vegas
You might want to consider the 1/3 $500 max games also. Caesar's and TI offer the 1/3. Maybe a few others. (Wynn?)

For limit that's correct. For NL it's $6/down + $1/hand JP. They may not take the JP at 5/10 and 10/25 NL.
I'm not sure $5+1...

Re: 1-2 NL Rake
You need to move up to 2/5 to be even against the time charge. $12/hour against a 300 stack is brutal. 2/5 is a little tougher, but the structual advantages greatly overweigh the slight increase in...
