Board people in LA are mostly break ins and may possibly be not too familiar with poker in general. NL games are called by the buyins here. They should know what 1/2 NL is, but most do not have English as a first language so I can see problems arise.

Even though he was Chinese Bike board person Benson (sp?) had about 100 years experience (they actually had a Card Player article about him ten years or so back). In any case a competent board should be able to figure out the OP meant blinds not the size of the buyins. Besides, average age of 1-2 holdem players (if they even spread it) is about 90. 1-2 blind $40 fixed buy NL players average age is about 23. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
