Re: First trip to Vegas
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] The 15-30 is played with red $5 chips. The 30-60 is played with blue $10 chips. Both are 2-3 blinds. [/ QUOTE ] Seriously? I really have to deal with chips that small? Will people look at me funny if I bring 20$ or 25$ chips into the game? Otherwise I'd be buying in for like three racks, blah. [/ QUOTE ] scary tiger, lol! You are going to have a blast playing live. Lots of people are just there to show off how tough they are with their big stacks of chips and long staring contests. My advice: bring more than 6k and play as high as you can. If I knew you better I'd offer to take half of you cuz you will probably have 3+ bb/100 edge even in 60/120. Also, you will probably find that vegas is a bit of a miserable place, particulalry when all ur doing is hanging out around bellagio poker room. Try and get off strip for a while--donk around in a craps game in downtown, go swimming in lake mead, and/or go eat thai food at a local restaurant. [/ QUOTE ] I agree with this 100%. 100-200 live is easy compaired to 30-60 online as long as you can deal with 30 hands / hour and aren't a giant tell box. You won't just get strange looks, but even vocal complaint from the nits at the table. Last month at the Bellagio they managed to run out of $10 chips at the poker cage (had to get more from the main cage) so the floor gave me 1 rack of blue and offered to get me gree or black chips for the remainder. Two regular guys at the table made a giant stink about not mixing chip denominations at the table, I of course just got my chips anyways, but it was like they were personly offended by it. $100 bills play though, and its not uncommon for people to use them in addition to the main chip for the game. Seriously though if you want a lot of BB at the table I don't see why you don't want to just buy in for four racks to start a solid base for your inevetable tower of chips. Chips are half the fun of live poker! |
