Re: Stud in Atlantic City...anybody play there?
Yes, the $1/5 stud games are all spread limit. This means that you can bet anywhere from 1 to 5 on all streets. Low card bring-in is $1, no ante.
I've played a lot 1/5 years ago, moved up to 5/10 & occasionally 10/20 the last few years. 1/5 in AC used to be really good from the mid-90's until 2002 or so. The Taj and Trop had a lot of games every day, and on weekends/late nights they were full of blue-collar guys drinking & middle-aged housewives. Needless to say, they were lousy stud players. Unfortunately, all of these folks (plus the under-30 poker boom/internet players) play 1/2 NL & LL hold 'em now. Today, 1/5 is a senior-citizens social club, even on weekends now. You may catch a good game here or there, but for the most part these games are pretty tight. 1/5 is still pretty popular in AC. The Taj, Trop, Harrah's, & Bally's (.50 cent ante) still spread it every day. Taj has autoshufflers in some of the stud tables now, & will have 2-3 1/5 games going usually. |
