You haven't played much holdem in Florida, have you?

Before July 1, the date when no-limit games were legalized in Florida, a form of holdem called "action holdem" was very popular with the action junkies. It had a $2 ante (yes, before any cards were dealt out), and a $2 bet + 3 raises structure on each betting round. 10-handed games frequently saw 10 players seeing the flop with $100 in the pot pre-flop. This was a $2 game!

Now these action junkies play 2/5 NLHE with a $100 capped buyin.
