Probably no O8. If they do spread it prepare yourself for a comedy of errors with the dealers.

Last time I was there they had the following low limit games running:

2/4 limit
3/6 limit
5/10 limit
10/20 limit
3/6 PLO8 (runs rarely, always funny to watch the dealers wait to be told who won the pot)

1/2nl (100 max buy in)
1/2nl (200 max buy in)
1/2nl (300 max buy in)
2/5nl (500 max buy in)


They also run:
15/30
20/40
30/60 (rarely)

5/10nl ($20 bring in) (300 min buy in, no max buy in) -- this game runs on some friday afternoons and during tournament times.

The quality of play is higher than in AC but most players are still really really bad. If you are going to be playing one of the 1/2 nl games you should play pretty tight and wait for your monsters. You will get paid off when you hit big hands even if you have been folding for the past hour. Usually there are 2-3 people who know how to play at each low limit game and 7-8 people who literally have no idea what is going on.

The games are best before the school year and during natural academic breaks because they are a big draw to the upstate NY colleges.

For their tournament schedule check their website.
