Default best 18+ cardrooms in california?

i'm from california and usually play at jackson, but lately i've felt the urge to go play in so cal somewhere (or even stay up here in nor cal if there's a place thats 18+ 'sides jackson) and try to beat the games there.

also, what (nl) limits spread? i usually play 1/2 or 2/5 but would play in a 5/10 if some casinos spread it

Casino Morongo & Pechanga are your best bets, they spread everything and anything.

Morongo will be your best bet. Nothing but teenie boppers there. You will be in good company.

Kind of like a watered down Palms.

They're 2/5 is uncapped.

Pechanga 21+, Morongo is F'ing awful since it's way out in the middle nowhere (out on the way to Palm Springs). In San Diego there's 3, 2 of which I would recommend. Sycuan has a nice atmosphere and the games are ok. They're slowing down a bit lately but they're supposed to change the 1/2 game from 100 max to 200 max. They have a 2/4 NL game with a 300 max BI but if they up the 1/2 game they may change the 2/4 one too. Very good food there too, it's about 30 minutes from downtown.
The other I'd recommend is Viejas which is also about 30 minutes from downtown where the atmosphere is horrible. It feels like you're playing in the pit rather than in a cardroom. However, the games are good. There is a 1/2 with a 100 max but also a 1/3NL with a 300 max buy in. I heard while I was there that the 2/5 game was a 1000 max buy in (seems unlikely although 500 seems likely) and a 5/10 is on the board but I've never seen it go. They have great structures on their NL games but like I said, it's a pretty crappy atmosphere.
The third is Barona which is even further outside SD and I've never played there.

Well First lets say iv not lived iN San Diego since 01 so i left before the NL boom

But Id Rate the three
as
Viejas(has a Factory outlet mall right across the street)
also Right off I8

Barona Hate the Drive But I liked it alot

then Sycuan
drive as bad as Barona's but a bit closer to San Diego.

Thoe again that was Six Years ago now so the games and stuff might have changed but I dont think all that much

The 2/5 at Viejas is in fact 200-1k buyin. In the week before Christmas up until a few days after New Years we got it running almost every day from what I heard. I got sick of the casino because they never got a 20/40 game started, I didn't want to play 8/16 and I hate NL, so I've been playing Ocean's 11 since then, knowing Viejas they probably managed to [censored] up the 2/5 game somehow. It was always a much better game than the 1/3 nitfest. If Navarro is playing then sit on his left and profit. I think the 5/10 got started like one time, whenever I was there I would be either the only person on the board for it or one of like 2.

The only places I have played are Viejas/Ocean's 11, so I don't know about other places.
