Friend wants to go on a field trip tomorrow (Friday) to Lake Elsinore. He mostly plays 15/30 to 40/80 limit but will play NL while waiting for a limit game. When we were at Aqua Caliente a few weeks ago we heard they have a decent size limit game at Lake Elsinore (20/40 or 25/50) but the source didn't seem to be reliable. If I tag along I'll either play the 8/16 to 20/40 limit or NL with a $5 or $10 BB.
What's the chance we will find these sorts of games? We hope to arrive at Elsinore around 2:30 pm and can stay till midnight. We may kill the afternoon catching the new Eastwood flick. Keep in mind this isn't a tournament weekend for Lake Elsinore. All help appreciated. ~ Rick PS Pechanga isn't a good backup. Friend has been there three times and he thinks the games (20/40) are nitty compared to LA. |

...usually I hate to call because I fear I won't get a straight answer but the floor said they have two 20/40 limits and a 100-500 $5 blind NL. Sounds good.

On the weekend the generally do get a 20/50 and a 5/5 100-500 NL game going. Don't know if it would be going before evening though.

I poked my head in there tonight on my way home from SD, I was surprized to see about 10-20 games going, didnt get too close to see what they were, I did see some green chip action near the front rail(6-12 I think), with as many games that were going on there I wouldnt be surprized to see a couple of NL's in there. I was more shocked to see in the restroom they had auto-flushers, auto-soap despenser, auto-towel dispenser, they blew it all on the restrooms?

Mike [/ QUOTE ] I made the call above (where the floor told me two 20/40s were going) around 6:00pm on Thursday. It will be interesting to see what they have going tomorrow (Friday). ~ Rick |

Last night was double jackpot, so it was very busy. The jackpot is up to 35K, so the double brought everyone out.
There is almost always a 20/40 and a 100-500 NL with 5 & 5 blinds. Some nights there will be 2 games of each of these. If it is really humming, they will also have a PLO game going, which is the best game in the house. The 8-16 has been going lately, but is usually not in the lineup. Always good when it goes. There has never been a 20/50 game that one of the posters alluded to. Rick, tell them you also want to start a list for a $500-$1000 NL game (5-10 blinds)...they almost got it going last night. ***Although it's probably too late for you to see any of this...If you need any other info PM me.*** |

Both of us played small and had lunch, then went to the movies behind the casino (The Prestige, my friend's choice, I give it three stars out of five). The 20/40 started around 3:30pm, I played a while then started the 5-5 blind NL. Was feeling sort of goofy/dizzy and was way up in a tight game so went to a second movie (Flags of Our Fathers - I give it four stars) while my friend played on. After the movie I chopped again in the 5-5 NL, doubling through an LA player I've played lots of 20/40 stud/8 against. You seem to be right on regarding games. I may try to make it out for an overnighter on a Thursday. My friend can't play late and it really isn't that far. In general the day games are quite a bit tighter than the equivalent LA games, at the same time you just don't get many moves put on you so its a good place to play if you like it tight and predictable. My guess is that later at night it opens up. ~ Rick PS I also liked the fact that I was one of the younger players [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] PPS I noticed they have some $100 no rebuy tournaments with only $10 juice. That's the way it used to be everywhere. |
