Default TI Tangerine Mixer

I just heard about this game offered at TI and want to know how often/when table(s) are opened, what games are offered, how they are chosen and any general comments from anyone who has played it. Thanks!

-Whenever there is enough people on the interest list.
-it is Hold 'Em, Omaha Hi, and Crazy Pineapple. the order is chosen at the start of the game.
-If it isn't going just get a seat in a 2/4 game and start talking it up, that's how I managed to turn a list of 4 into a full game.
-People are not good at Omaha, I made $100+ in less than an hour, then the table broke.
-I would guess that it goes more often weekend nights.

According to one of the supervisors there, they will add whatever games everyone wants to play to the mix. I am not sure what the criteria of "everyone" is, but what are the chances of turning the game into CHORSE?

That's cool. When I was there they seemed to want to keep it to those three games. I would hope that the dealers could deal anything, but consider you probably won't get as many random folks to play O8 or Stud8.

Hey guys,
The mixed games are really fun at TI. They have a huge stack of these plastic circles with different games written on them and you pick whatever games you want to play. When I was there myself and other 2+2'ers plays a mixed game with... Badugi, Razz, Omaha h/l, 2-7 5 card draw, double flop holdem and crazy pineapple.

TI is a tourist based hotel/casino. The only locals base they have is mainly with dealers that play the mixed games. The 1/2NL is standard mix, about 3/4 tourists or more.

This game is awesome, but it'd kind of hard to get started unless you've got people with you who want to play. Mix during the WSOP was Razz, O/8, double flop hold'em, 5 card draw, stud/8, double flop omaha, and 2-7 TD. They've got plaques for badugi, aviator, and various pineapple games as well, but I'm pretty sure they'll spread anything if people will go for it. The 5 draw plaque was just a piece of paper taped to some other one.
