Re: Weekend of October 12 games and last week\'s report
[ QUOTE ]
I'm a new Illinois player (just south of the state line by the Lake). No live experience to speak of, but I'd like to try it.
So what limits do the spread, and what buy-in tournaments do they have?

NL HE
$3/$5 - can't remember buy-in I think $300-$600.
Limit HE
$2/$4
$3/$6
$4/$8
$6/$12
$10/$20 sometimes
$20/$40 sometimes
All the games 6/12 and below are pretty much filled with clueless retards. A decent understanding of SSHE will allow you to do well in those games. Play $2/$4 on a weekend night if you want some 8 players to a flop action.
Limit o/8
$5/$10 with kill on Wed/Thu
$3/$6 with no kill on Sat
Neither of these games are tough by any means, the hands per hour are just so low that if your good hands don't hold up it can take a long time to reverse a downswing.
PLO
Round by round (HE Omaha) when requested. Dealer said $5/$5 blinds and $500-no max buy-in.
Stud
$1-$5 I think?
Tournaments
They had one when they first opened and one in August. The one in August was "invite only" for players who had accumulated the most hours in the room. $200 buy-in, 150 players, $40K payout so $10K was added. Last months "ANTE" magazine said stayed tuned to their website (paysbig.com) for more tournament listings.
