Chicago area poker - this weekend

DrPublo · #1 05-16-2006, 09:08 PM

I'm quickly discovering that I have absolutely nothing to do this weekend and haven't played live in about a dog's life, so I'd like to make it out to any of the Chicago area cardrooms this weekend. Any 2p2er's headed out there this weekend for a possible meet-up? Probably looking to arrive Saturday mid-afternoon and stay v. late.

What are you looking to play? I've been spending a lot of Saturday's at Resorts recently, but will be out of town this weekend.

NL at any level really, but preferably 5-10 and above. I left my destination ambiguous in the original post because I'm open and would go to any place that people were going to be at.

I'll be at Resorts Friday and Saturday night, playing 5/10 limit. Also, I don't know how high stakes you're looking to play, but Resorts runs and uncapped NL on Friday nights that (from admittadly only watching maybe 10-20 hands) looks pretty good.

I'll be at Potawatomi (Milwaukee) Friday and Saturday as always. 3/5 NL 600 max. Softest game and best structure in the Chicago area.

If you are closer to downtown/Indiana, and you are rolled appropriately, hit the Trump (now Blue Star) 10/25NL.

edit: 10/25NL @ trump/Blu* is uncapped

Since when is Resorts uncapped?

Last time I was there (not too long ago) it was either 5/5 or 5/10 (players choice) NL 500 max.

Edit:
I just called the poker room @ Resorts and confirmed that the structure is indeed still 5/10NL 200 min/500 max.

Anyone have any info on the 10-25 nl game at the old Trump? Looking to play next weekend and wondering if it's a good situation. I'm adequately bankrolled, but will only play if it is a weak game, and would prefer not to fight friday afternoon traffic to play in a $200 max game.

I haven't been for a couple of weeks, but they were running one table uncapped on Friday night for at least 3 weeks straight. I figured it was a regular thing, guess not.
