Nice pic. I saw a half-kill pot hit $500 there. Some guy folded the river for one $12 bet closing the action.

Ok, I stand corrected then, but I thought I remembered from both the Wynn's and Venetian's 4-8 that the 4th dollar came out at $80. Maybe I don't remember correctly or these rooms are not standard.

This is entirely possible. It could be 1 at 10, 1 and 30, 1 and 60, 1 at 80 or something similar.

Still no matter what rake in Las Vegas you run into, it's still on average, lower than anywhere else (legal) in the U.S. which pleases me big time.

4/8 holdem: 1 on 10, 30, 50, and 80 -- Bellagio, Wynn, and Venetian.

I've had the same experience with the small O8 game in my casino: Resorts, Gary IN.

[/ QUOTE ]

I play $5/$10 and $10/$20 HE at Resorts every couple of weeks (although, Mrs. Lossage was quite incensed when they started charging $1 for bottled water: ''They drop over $100 per table per hour, and they can't comp me something that falls from the [expletive deleted] sky?''). When that O/8 game is running, I always mean to hop over there and have some fun with the old nits, but the waiting list is always a mile long.

I like the dealers, on average, much better at Resorts than Majestic Star (nee Trump). If I drop a ''sup bro'' once per down next time I'm there, will you give me a hint as to who you are?

Probably not, because I'm not there very much recently. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Those young kids! They see poker on TV and think they know how to play haha!

Not like me, I lose 3 buy ins a day! Cuz I'm good!

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah. All that Omaha/8 on TV is ruining the game.

I decided to dress up before sitting in the Orleans O/8 game for the first time. That shirt started out as a Halloween costume, but worked it's way into my regular rotation.

I bought that for $6 at a thrift store in the Mission (San Francisco). For all I know it was in dozens of pornos before I got it.
