Just finished a 16 hour session playing 40-80 LHE in Los Angeles. For about 10 hours EVERY pot was 5+ handed with 2 or 3 bets in preflop. AT LEAST 4 players dropped $4000+ while I was there. Yep, holdem is dying...

posting full articles is a no-no. When it's from another long time 2p2ers blog, it's just gross.

http://www.joetall.com/blog/ is what you're looking for.

OP, what is your opinion about FTP being rigged and TT flopping a set more than any other pocket pair.

No limit betting is sexy. Limit betting is boring. It's ridiculous to think that we're just a few years away from the $50k HORSE's prize pool eclipsing that of the Main Event.

As the ME declines and the 50k HORSE increases, I like my chances.

Well the 50k HORSE got only a handful more players this year than last year, but the 5k and 2.5k events drew very well and drew lots of the "TV" pros that get people interested. Long live limit games!
