[ QUOTE ] HOE = Hold'em, Omaha High, Omaha High/Low [/ QUOTE ] HOE= Hold'em, Omaha/8, stud/8 At least that is the normal definition. I guess in IA they can call it whatever they want. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah - For some reason the E has always been O8 around Iowa, someone just named it that and it stuck is my guess |

Re: Trip Report: Isle of Capri - Waterloo, IA
2nd half of trip report:
I returned on Friday about 4pm to play some more cards - sat down in a 1/2 NL game while the list for a 1/2 blind pot limit game filled up, around 7pm we got a 1/2 blind pot limit HOE game going (100-300 buyin), smaller than the 2-5 uncapped game i was hoping for but still better than being stuck at the 1/2 nl all night, lots of great action, people just dumping chips and not being able to make a laydown if their life depended on it... also people calling to hit non nut flushes in omaha was amusing as well... i won $700 and felt i played badly and should have left a few hours earlier as i was pretty tired and not able to think as clearly as i probably needed to for 4-5 handed play, we also got rid of holdem and went to straight omaha games at midnight which was a plus for inducing more stupid action Not sure how much money people have around here but the PL HOE game will be juicy for awhile I have a feeling, so many 8 way flops in Omaha H/L... |

Re: Trip Report: Isle of Capri - Waterloo, IA
You're right the 1-2 HO game is pretty crazy at times. This casino is only minutes away from my house and it's were I play most of the time. I wasn't there last night as I had other plans. The game is very good, but alot of times it only lasts a 3-4 hours because most of the people that play it don't have the bankrolls to be playing the game.
