Re: 44 Set in the SB

At Bay 101, the caps comes off in any betting round, once only 2 players in it. Don't need to start a round heads up.

Re: Nit Procedure Question

At Bay 101, if you move away from the Blind, you either wait x hands, where x is the number of players you jumped, OR you can optionally post. No penalty for moving toward the blind.

Re: Oaks Card Club Emeryville Ca

Their 15-30 game is their highest limit. So it attracts their "high rollers". I often saw people sit down with 3-4K$ which is a bit much for that game normally. From what I could see, it tends to...

Re: Get used to it

I agree it is unfair, but every casino I have ever played at that doesn't have electronic boards has this going on. I don't think it is going to change, even though most of these same casinos have...

Re: Reno trip in December. Where to play?

There are no big rooms. If you are look for limit HE, then about the best you can do is 4-8 with a kill at most casinos. Peppermill has 10-20 during peak times. Everyone offers NL, albeit mostly...

Re: Live 4/8 KK -- Preflop I Cap Multiway -- Postflop I Call Call Call.

Both BB and UTG have been betting/raising at most every opportunity. You don't think one of them has AA red?

Re: Bay Area Omaha hi/lo games?

Bay 101 plays a 4/8 half kill Omaho hi/lo. I have played it numerous times and it is very variable. There are a bunch of regulars. If they are all there, it is NOT a soft game.

Re: 1/2 foxwoods ratholing question

Re: San Jose: more tables and No Limit action in 2008?

Mike mentioned that all poker games had to be on one level of building. Though this didn't quite make sense to me, because at one time Garden City had poker on main floor and mezzanine.

Re: San Jose: more tables and No Limit action in 2008?

I talked to Mike, the shift manager on Friday nights. The issues to changing are as follows:
1) WHile Bay 101 has plenty of room to add tables, Garden City doesn't have the room. So he thinks they...

Re: Dealing as a part-time job in retirement?

It can be pretty decent pay as well. At Bay101, the dealers make minimum wage, get health benefits and a good dealer takes down about $300/day in tips, only part of which is declared to the IRS

Re: San Jose: more tables and No Limit action in 2008?

It was mentioned to me by the main board guy Friday night that they will soon get approval to add more tables as well. The old rule was maximum of 40 tables of any sort and max single bet of $200. ...

Re: Showing One Card (after everyone has folded)

At Bay 101, if you show one, u don't have to show the other even if requested if you are NOT called.

I know I will probably be lambasted for saying this, but I personally think showing one card is...

Re: The quality of play @ 8-16 and lower, and EVEN @ 20-40

Thanks for some thoughtful responses. I unfortunately have been misread about my comments about fancy plays. This isn't an ego thing.
The point of the plays, other than just building pot equity or...

The quality of play @ 8-16 and lower, and EVEN @ 20-40

I play regularly at Bay101, and I have found that tricky plays at 8-16 and lower are totally wasted on 95% of the players and that they won't even notice they have happened. As a result of the...

TAG vs LAG play

I play mostly 8-16 or 10-20. I had a 3 month stretch play SSHE type TAG play where I won everytime at a rate of 1.5 to 2 BB/hour. I am not telling you this to brag, but rather to set the stage for...

OF course they cash checks

All the major casinos in Vegas will cash personal checks. They use one of the check services to do so. Last time I was there, I cashed a check for $1000 at Rio. Next day went to Bellagio, and cash...

Re: Weird hand at 20-40 @ Bay 101

Garland,
I take your point. Standard SSHE says you need AJS to make this call. I wouldn't have called A-10o; however I felt A-10s was close and because the table was so passive, I have been...

Weird hand at 20-40 @ Bay 101

Table is full of tight fairly passive players. Player in EP+1 is the only exception and I would describe him as somewhat loose and agressive.
I am particularly looking for comments pre-flop. Post...

20-40 Bay 101

I moved up from the 8-16 table. I expected to find a bunch of LAGs, but instead I found a bunch of TAPs. Really surprised the hell out of me. Most raises in EP caused everyone to fold out. So I...
