I'm playing at FT $0.50/$1 $30 Cap no limit tables right now. Anyone else notice these tables are loaded with donks? I'm finding it way faster to build a roll here than anywhere else entirely because of the short stacked calling stations who are so easy to run big bet value lines on with top pair.
At Stars and elsewhere i've never seen these kinds of tables. Wonder why

Recent trend has been towards deeper tables, so these kind of go against the trend.

Just playing to improve.

Precisely. I think the folks who want to gamble show up there thinking its somehow safer because there's a cap to the betting. Anyway, it's just anecdotal at this point, I'll keep including them in my table selection to see if it was just good luck to sit down with so many donks.

So your playing $30NL with $.50/$1.00 blinds?

gotta suck but I can see how the donks would travel here like they do to the PL tables or the BBJ tables when the jackpot is huge. I play the jackpot tables a ton on party because of the players they attract.
