Default Breakroom game with a different structure

I play in a NL game at work. $50 buy in, $2 SB, $2 BB. I've tried to get them to either raise the buy in or lower the blinds, they simply won't budge. i was lucky to get the buy in raised from $20. yikes!

A typical pre-flop raise is $7 up to $12. 5 to 8 players. i do well in this game, but was wondering what, if any adjustments should be made.

I'd just play your normal gam and be ready to buy back in if you get stacked. If you aren't buying back in then you have to play pretty fast because you only have about 12 orbits before you're blinded out.

You'd need to be playing a loose game. Also, I think stealing blinds would be more productive.

but like you said if you're doing well I wouldn't change till you stopped doing well. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Those blinds are terrible for that buy-in. We run a game where most players buy in for around $50, and we play it .25/.50 blinds... Even dropping from 2/2 to 1/2 would be little easier on the players.
