Garden City 3-100 chage
I headed out to GC last night to play the 3-100. From what I have been told/read, the game had a 1-3 blind structure with a $4 drop. Meh, plays a bit different than 1-2, but I hoped the usual 1-2 donks would make up for the tweak in structure. Sat down at the table only to find out the 3-100 was now 3-2-1 w/ a $5 drop, even if there was no flop. With a buy-in capped at $100, that's a starting M just over 15.5. Seems a bit rediculous, even by low-limit standards. Also, the players were definitely not the normal 1-2 caliber fellows.

I discovered this week that they've raised the Stud/8 drop again as well, to $6 for a full table (7 or 8 players), $4 or $2 for shorthanded. 7 players * $1 ante = $1 left in the middle. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Re: Garden City 3-100 chage
postoak, I went down to GC last night to play, and just sat at the 3-100. I didn't realize the structure was that awful now. If you open-raise and everyone folds, you win $1 because they take the full $5 drop out of the $6 in blinds.
If it's folded to you on the button, your choices are to be FITA with or without lube. You can just surrender your $1 and let the other blinds chop, or you can raise and hope to net $0 on the hand instead of -1$ if both of the blinds fold. You might have been unlucky with the quality of your table, the play last night was pretty bad. Of course I think a weekend makes a difference over a weeknight too. Honestly though, my advice now would be to go up to the Lucky Chances $1-1-2. |

But then you buy 3 gallons of gas. The 10 bucks equals out if you win 10 pots in your session.

meaning they are better i assume? [/ QUOTE ] Yes, they were much better; mostly tight PF, aggressive when they did play; making good, sensible laydowns (if anything, maybe too "big" of laydowns). There was one spewtard who must of rebought 4 or 5 times. When he went to go play 2-5, literally 3 or 4 players from our table followed him. Of course amongst all of these savvy players I managed to try and semibluff the one donk who didn't understand that top pair 2 kicker on an extremely drawy board didn't quite cut it (well, obviously it did cut it, but it was a sickening call; I was muttering "J2" for about 3 hours). first and last time I go to GC, especially during the week torello; my buddy and i were there on thursday night, just missed you |

They need more drop to pay for the new artwork (Michael Godard).
