Default 5-150 and 10-150 spread limit strategy

5-150 plays almost like a half-pot limit game, it tends to play rather big. These games are only spread at Casino Arizona from what I am aware of, there was an article written a few months ago in the 2+2 Magazine about how to play this style of game. In Arizona the maximum legal bet is $150, hence the hybrid game.

What forum should 5-150 strat posts live in?

Only problem with that will be the flood of other strat posts from the NL players who already get upset by having their posts moved.

It certainly doesn't belong in limit, so I would just go ahead and say PL/NL, since it's like a pot limit game -- at least preflop and on the flop. On the turn you're only betting 1/3 the pot or so, but whatever; it's choosing your bet size.

Spread limit games are still played in the Bay Area as well, they dont have normal NL games either. 5-150 is specific to Casino Arizona of course.

Agreed, but which PL/NL forum is best for this game? Pots can get huge, its far from a 1/2 game yet not as big as say a 5/5 NL. And the strategy considerations are different, I don't think the regulars in Full Ring NL would be equipped provide good advice (I could be wrong, thats why I posted this thread here).

TT,

"Spread limit games are still played in the Bay Area as well, they dont have normal NL games either."

Lucky Chances has a 10-200 spread limit game and a 10-10-20 NL game.

The bet limit here in Deadwood is $100 so 2-10, 5-50 and 2-100 (called Deadwood NL) are popular. I don't think I've ever seen it online since Victoria's Poker went bust.
