I had a pretty good session (i.e. profitable) at Commerce Casino on Saturday. I was sitting at a 2-4 limit table and as expected, three or four players on the table were really poor. They were the definition of no fold'em hold'em. At what table minimums do players start to get better?

BTW, I love the big chicks!!! Won the pot with that three or four times!

I've played 3-6 at Hollywood Park and 4-8 in Vegas. In both cases the players still seem to be very poor. I'm not sure when they start getting better.

Yes. Commerce Casino was profitable indeed. I love sitting next to people who don't know how to protect their cards. This guy was practically showing everyone sitting up to two seats from him at least one of his cards every hand.

One time I was heads-up with him with a flush draw on the board. I had AA, no flush, but I knew he didn't have the flush because I saw his card before the flop. Of course, I bet all the way and won the pot.

Yeah, I especially like the guy sitting to my right that would count on his fingers to see if he could make an inside straight, while showing me one of his hole cards. I can't wait to play Hollywood Park this weekend.

omg, those posts are hilarious!!!

yeah, basically everyone everywhere sucks at those stakes. It's too bad the rake at Commerce is so damn high.

I've played Commerce, Bicycle, Hollywood Park, Monte Carlo, Bellagio, Palms, and almost all of the players at stakes 2-4 up to 4-8 were the same - suck ass.

The players are a bit worse than online, but online has a lower rake, so both games are profitable.

it's been my experience that there can be good players at any limit. often times players who are good at lower limit games are too timid in the bigger games and bigger limit players are too loose in the smaller limit games.

I hear that even at 5-10 and sometimes 10-20 you get players that don't know what they are doing, sometimes you get the rare fish at the 30-60 table that everyone eats as if they are parasite or something, my rule a thumb, the higher the stacks the more people play bettor (unless they just have money to burn and are high rollers or something). I have heard that it starts tightening up once you hit about 10-20 or 20-40 I do believe. With no limit I’m not sure that's a completely different story.
