As for the fact they refer to the game as NL 40, NL 80 etc. that is the gayest thing I've ever heard of. I thought only online players (with no B&M experience) called the games names like that. I play in B&M rooms very regularly and I have to be honest, I'd have been as confused as you were. I probably would have just ended up in a limit game so I could ask around to some other players and/or the dealer to find out what the deal was with the crazy names.lol

I think these names are probably better. In the past the blinds were what determined how big a game played. Now the limit on the buy-in determines how big the game plays so it would make sense that the max (or fixed) buy-in is what would be noted.
