I consider 5 BB playable, 6 BB good, and 7 BB juicy.

only reason I ask is that I was just watching a 20/40 that was 10.5BB [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I would have sat in if my first foray into the game went a little better over the weekend, but alas.

LOL. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

By your standards, that means Cryptologic stud games have three categories:

1. Juicy.
2. Squishy.
3. Slip 'n slide.

Well, I don't play there. Yet. Do they have games $5/10 or higher?

the 20/40 was running at 10.5 BB, from which my original question arose.

I realized that; however it is the same site I was referring to. If you look at the question he asked, it seems to be of the type that could be answered by anyone who happens to know said answer.

On another note, the 10.5 seemed to be a freak occurrence as yesterday there were 2 tables going in the 6-7 range.

As PoorLawyer already stated, they do.

Let me elaborate further. There is usually one 5/10 game going and sometimes two. Occasionally, there is a 10/20 game going and/or a 20/40 game going. I only play 5/10 and below, so I can't give you a first-hand account of the 10/20 and 20/40 games. However, just from observing, it appears that quite a few of the same players that frequent these games are the ones that also play the lower limit games. Hence, the quality of play is about the same at almost all levels. PoorLawyer has more experience with this, so perhaps he can elaborate.

Having said that, notice how I did not attach currency markings to the games I mentioned. That's because these games are sometimes not being played for dollars, but instead these games are sometimes in British Pounds and sometimes in Euros, which inflates their dollar equivalency value. This also means that the 2/4 and 3/6 British Pounds games, which both run frequently, may also be to your liking, inasmuch as they roughly equate to $3.50/7 and $5.50/11.
