Default Crazy Pineapple at the Wynn (Short Trip Report)

My buddies and I went on a trip to Vegas this weekend and last night I ended up at the Wynn expecting to play a little 15/30.
However, after putting my name on the list I saw a table with at least 4K in blue chips in the back. As soon as I saw the sign for crazy pineapple I knew that I had stumbled upon a great game filled with plenty of fish.
I don't remember all of the 2+2ers at the table but we had a great time and really donked it up. I don't remember too much but I am sure that there was at least hand where it was staddled, blind 3, 4, and 5 bet and then 6-bet by the next player with everyone calling. There was also at least 1 hand where I forgot that the game was hi/low and I folded half the pot. And at least one more that I was sure I had a low when I really only hand bottom pair bottom kicker. That one was great. I made quads on the second hand and then pretty much managed to break even despite playing at least 75/40/3 for the rest of the way. I had a great time and it made we wish that I lived in Vegas. Just wanted to thank cardshark again for the ride back to IP.

is it standard in vegas that if straddled it can be 6-bet preflop? can anyone 6-bet or only the straddler?

straddle does not count as a raise in most rooms.

Somebody needs to figure out enough of the action to post the 5-bet blind hand. it was insane.

was in vegas this weekend, and while I was playing the 5-10NL game at the Wynn I kept eyeing the pineapple game on the monitor, cause i could see it over in the corner - looked fun. Almost came over.

were you one of the 4 at the table when I walked by and the dealer told me there was a seat open and I looked at him like he was crazy?
