What were the rakes in the limit games?

10% to $15. Also, we played at a converted blackjack table. Only 7 seats so for everyone who wanted 6 max B&M games this is your shot.

i was on Legend of the Seas back in march and they ran a 2/5 limit game every night except for one night which they ran a NL game. 250min buy in and i think it was 2/5 also. The game was soooooo easy and i took 250 to 550 pretty fast off one guy who was being explained the rules of the game by the dealer before the table got started.

the only decent player at the table while i was there suffered a terrible beat when he called an all in from a really drunk, really annoying woman. The guy had flopped an ace high flush, the girl had an inside straight flush draw. Turn came the 1 outer and a really terrible chain of "omg straight flush i winnnnn" (money went in on the flop)

would have stayed longer but i got dragged away for sex...<3 spring break cruises

oh yea...i cant remember exactly...but the rake was BRUTAL

The softness of the games EASILY makes up for the rake.

If you can't beat that game, stop playing poker.

is this all RC ships?

2-5 Limit, probably can't make enough to pay for the cruise no matter how soft it is.

Im going on Carnival Miracle next week for an 8 day cruise.
I hear its 5-10 limit only, hopefully that is old info and they will now have NL. If they have NL I hope to average $200 an hour [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I sailed on RC last year out of Puerto Rico. There was one table (blackjack table) of 5/10 limit that was running in the evenings. When all players agreed, it went to 10/20 limit. I usually showed up after 10 PM when the day's fun was over, and played for a couple of hours before calling it a night.

The players were generally bad. Some really loose, some wacky aggressive. I suppose it depends who is on your particular trip. The same cast of characters showed up every night.

The dealers and house were OK. I don't recall the exact rake, but it was significant.

I took away about 75 BB in about 8 total hours of play over maybe 3 sessions. My cards were very good, and I had callers almost all the time.

I wanted to give anyone who may be interested an update...

I just came back from a week on Freedom of the Seas. There was 1 Poker Pro electronic table. The only game that was played was 3/6 nlhe; the rake was 10% up to $15 max. I didn't play at all, but I only observed games going at night after 8pm. Most of the games I watched were short handed 2-5 players. The play looked very soft.

Two single table tournaments were advertised daily, but I never actually witnessed one.

Sorry, but this is all I have.
