NL Cash Games drying up, Players Busto?

[BusterFlush]

Hope this is the correct forum. I live in a major midwest city without a casino for legal games. The cops busted a few of the underground clubs but it is very difficult to keep a NL cash game going as many players have gone bust. Is the a local phenomenon or happening else where?

I would think the majority of players in this type of area have other sources of income, and will never actually go "bust." And for the few pros, well, it probably would not be in their best intrest to go bust. Maybe people in this area are just afraid to play in illegal games for fear of the law

NL home games have been tough to fill.

there are fewer fresh faces showing up in mo-limit game.
While they are still running OK, I am seeing more and more go BUST or move to less variance games.
Others on here will SCREAM and YELL about this but they are :
1. Living in a fantasy world
2. Have no clue just how much they are down
3. Are afraid to tell the truth.

Most major midwest cities do not have casinos.
Cops bust underground games where poker is not legal.
Fish go bust the fastest at NL games.

So I would say this is happening pretty much everywhere, yes.

If you are talking about filling your home game, then this is the wrong forum. Try home poker although I don't know if they talk about finding players also.

Regardless of the game or stakes (within reason), there are nearly always players in any well populated area.

NL Games aren't drying up.
