Lucky Chances 2/3/5

[ZManODS]

Any 2+2 regulars play in this game?

How beatable is it? How does it compare to the 1/1/2 game? How is Lucky Chances in general?

Any information would be usefull. Thanks!

I'm a regular in the 2-3-5. It is beatable overall, but not always a good game -- simply depends who is at the table. They usually have between 2-4 must-move tables going. The "main" game is often the toughest. Should be interesting to see how the game plays after Jan. 1 when the $200 max per bet cap is removed and it becomes true no limit.

It was my understanding that the buy-in is not capped in the 2-3-5 game, but the 1-1-2 does have a $200 buy-in cap.

The last time I was there on Oct 28, they did not have 9-18 limit or 20-40 limit going. The biggest limit holdem was 6-12. Seems that higher limit players are going elsewhere or playing the 2-3-5.

Is it a rock fest or something? What makes it boring / retarded?

[ZManODS]

I forgot to ask, is it $500 max buy in?

Also why is it sometimes not a great game? Too rocky? So would you recommened playing the 1-1-2 instead?

I've played the 1-1-2. It was weird. Everybody knew each other and the dealers. I felt like I was barging into a home game. I was mostly down and cashed out when I had a comeback and finished +$1.

2-3-5 as of right now is a horrible pot limit game. 1-1-2 is pretty bad too. Pig4bill any cardroom is like that cuz its always the same people in there.

You are right about the 2-3-5, it sucks with the $200 max bet. I actually found 1-1-2 to be quite profitable as there are MANY more tables with a lot worse players.
