I too have heard things about LC spreading real NL next year. I wonder how good the game will be, but at the same time I can't help but think that the players at AJs are bad partially because they dont adjust correctly to their own weird blind/kill structure.

DJ,

Like you I just moved to San Francisco, but I'm just a 1-2 NL player online so 5-5-10 NL isn't quite what I'm looking for. Is there a casino in the Bay Area that spreads a good 2-5 NL game, as opposed to that spread-limit [censored] that they offer at Lucky Chances?

PS: Awesome story.

Anyhow, I head to the flop OOP with A9d (I think theres another dude or two in the pot, as usual). Flop comes 9x4c2c, I check-call $160 or $240 or something. Turn Kx, I lead for $360 or $400 or something. He calls. Uh oh, I think I know whats about to happen. I think he's about to get pwned.

DJ,

That is the way NL has been played in NorCal for a long time.

The LC game will likely be the same as before, 10-10-20, 40 to go.

The Palace game in Hayward is 1-2-2, 5 to go.

Great reports.

Have you played the 2-3-5 joke game at LC? I think it's actually softer than the old 2-3-5 no limit, because people STILL haven't adjusted correctly to the $200 max bet. Still I hope it goes back b/c it hurts my brain.
