3-6-12 questions
I've mainly played online but I've been checking into the live casino poker rooms in SW Louisiana. The lower limit that they play has a 3-6-12 betting structure. I went up to the Isle of Capri in Lake Charles to check out their room and watch a very short time. I have a few questions about the betting structure. I know the blinds are $1 and $3. The pre-flop and flop bets appear to be just $3. But what are the allowed range of bets on the turn and the river?
The play at the table seemed very loose with a lot of people seeing the flop and a lot of people chasing straight and flush draws. What type of strategy adjustments do you need to make for such a betting structures as opposed to what you do with the normal two bet structure? From what I saw, it wasn't a game where TPTK would win very much of the time. Thanks for any replies, Doc |

Re: 3-6-12 questions
I would suggest that you play a tight game, and value bet your good hands. They will sometimes suck out on you, but will mostly pay you off.
I play a game of either bet,raise,or fold. No checking. From what I remember playing there, you can bet 6 on the turn, and 6 or 12 on the river. |

Re: 3-6-12 questions
the 3-6-12 game is super loose. and yeah it's 3 pf 3 flop, 6 turn and 6 or 12 on the river. it's counter intuitive but 6 gets a fold and 12 a call from most ppl there. playing tight will get you nowhere. open up your game and have fun. any pocket pair, suited ace, and connecters (esp suited)are worth it a call pf. there are normally 7 ppl to a flop and a pf raise is considered a pot builder and will get more calls than a limp up front.
when were you there? i had heard that the isle and harrahs got washed up during rita..... |

Harrah's is still closed. They reported that they may take two years to get back in operation. I've heard a rumor that they are looking at land near the Port of Lake Charles near the L'auberge du Lac and might build a new casino similar to what L'auberge has. Doc |
