Default Re: What would you like to see covered in the upcoming SSNL book?

Let’s face it at the low limits we are mostly talking about online play.

a couple people have mentioned this.....and certainly you cannot find live $.25/.50 NL games being spread at casinos (at least not to my knowledge)......however, the low-buyin $1/$2-ish NL games being spread all over the place are incredibly popular......

I remember when I lived in Vegas I one time went to the Riviera to see a comedy show....I swung by their "poker room", which was two tables of $1/$2 NL 200-max buy in - it looked like the best poker game I'd ever seen......there were more beer bottles on the table than chips, and I must've seen 3 preflop all-ins in the 5 or so hands I watched......

another time when my dad came to visit me, we played in the Wynn's uncapped 1/3 NL game - off the hook action.....the Bellagio game was already mentioned earlier in this thread.....Commerce spreads a ton of low-stakes NL games that feature crazy action.....the 1/2 NL game here at Harrah's New Orleans always looks totally bumpin'.....a month ago I went to St. Louis to watch the Mets play the Cardinals, and my buddy and I went to some riverboat casino.....the poker room had only 4/8 limit, so we convinced the guy to start a list for 1/2 NL - within half an hour we had a full table and a waiting list.....

it's amazing, two years ago you could never find games like this being spread at casinos and now they're all the rage......
