Default NL Cash games....Vegas vs LA

What is the most profitable in your opinion, Vegas or LA? I am mainly talking 5/10nl but also 10/20nl as well.

If LA, which casino? I know Commerce has a $400 buy in max which means there is definately going to be much more gambling. Do people still gamble like crazy when they get there stack up to $2k+?

I saw pretty soft NL cash games in Vegas at least at 1-2 obviously, but limit LA has to be the way to go, and NL is probably even softer in LA since more moneyed folks around. I was wondering to add to what OP asked, Is Oceans Eleven in San Diego fairly fishy in NL and like mid limits (10-20 and 15-30) or is there not enough rich donkeys around like LA? SD is fairly wealthy too just not like LA, but I'm sure there is money there too I was just wondering

OK, so in LA, which casino is best for 5/10nl? Which is best for 10/20nl?

Are there good 5/10 NLHE games in LA that don't have ridiculously low maximum buyins?

The best structured 5/10NL game in ANY LA casino is the 5/10 game at the Bike. $500 min / no max buy-in. $4+1 drop. No jackpot drop. Just be warned/encouraged that on most nights, this game usually plays fairly deep = average stack size around $3k.

By comparison, the 5/10NL game at Commerce is a $400 capped buy in, and they take $5+1 for a drop plus $1 for the jackpot drop = rediculous. Granted, the fish in the game are what makes any game worth playing, but as far as structure alone goes - the Bike has the best 5/10NL game in town.

5/10 games are soft everywhere most of the time. LA is definately better but the only 5/10 worth playing is the bike in my opinion. That game sucks balls like 2 nights a week though. As for 10/20 commerce is the only place where there will always be 10/20 spread and the games are ussually amazing.

I read this, but how soft is soft? Who's sitting at these tables? Construction workers with $400 x2 to burn? Those were the saps I'd see at the limit tables in AC when I was still up North, but is CA NL really that sloppy?
