hey bwillie want to get stacked?
 

I'll be at Harrah's KC in April. It would be fun to stack you in a cash game. You gonna be around there around then?

I'll stack you in Omaha if I have to bro.

Come play in the Thursday 5/10 NL game.

Eat ribs at the table. No moist towelette.

I stack quite easily. Just don't make it hurt too bad.

CP meet up game?

Meet me by the statue of Doyle Brunson!

Double Bomb Pots!!

Bring extra condoms because you just never know.

Are you guys gambling your remaining brain cells?

Screw that!!

Raw-dog!!!

#YOLO!!

There is nothing fish love more than double board bomb pots so they can be raked twice and not have to worry about preflop selection. The goal of poker rooms would be to get everyone to do them every hand so they can make more money on rake.

Does Harrahs consistently get a 5/10 game going now? I played in it a few times back in like 2010 and made money each time. It was a lot of fun because everyone had massive stacks of $5 chips.

KC poker is weird. It's usually nothing but 1-2/1-3 games that can sometimes play big, but then out of nowhere a $200bb game will pop up.

Yes we've been playing every Thursday. Its 2/5 NL with 10 UTG mandatory straddle. PLO bomb pot every dealer change. They usually get the same going on Saturday nights but my GF never lets me play weekends unless I make up an excuse I have to travel for a tournament series, which I suck at tournaments.

They also have a Wednesday 2/5 NL with a $10 rock at Hollywood which means the winner of every pot has to straddle...which is one of the dumbest ways to play poker as it disincentivizes aggression preflop and penalizes the winner of a hand but it can be a big game. That essentially starts as a private game though as they manipulate alot of bad players playing with a certain group of people.

Thursdays is really the only day I play in KC. I travel to Joplin on Tuesdays for a 5/10 NL game that many times turns to 10/20.

The bigger games up at Hollywood are all bored regs trying new shit it seems. One day they'll all play plo, then the next day 1-3 and then the next day 2-5.

Where do all the giant games in KC wind up going? Do the players go broke or do they move back to home games? Hollywood used to have a 50/100 mixed and 5/10 NLH and ive seen 25/50 PLO and up to 100/200 omaha (limit?) run consistently when ameristar still had a room.

We used to play 25/50 NL on Wednesdays around 2015 or 2016 but PLO quickly destroyed it and took over. I do not play PLO but there were a few whales that big PLO revolved around for a few years. Pros would fly in even to play in it. Whales are attracted to PLO cuz they feel like they have a chance. I do know there are a couple of pretty big PLO private games and some 5/10 NL private game in Leawood.

Nowadays NL is kind of back in KC. Usually there is some form of 2/5+ available always Wed and Thurs and most Fridays and Saturdays.

If I could ever convince my GF to move to LA, Vegas, Tampa, Ft Lauderdale, Chicago, Philly, PHX I could make alot more money playing live poker since they always have some sort of big NL game.

I've noticed a resurgence in KC poker lately. Unfortunately i don't have the time or money to play anymore. I only playsd live 2 times last year.

U ever gotten a blow jay under the table?

Have you seen the regs in KC poker rooms? No thank you

It is a competitive advantage to roll around in pig shit and not shower for weeks.

I don't know the lingo, but this seems akin to "meet me on the other side of the glory hole."

Sometimes i wonder how these guys have so much money to burn. My favorite is watching the Asians who look like they just got off shift at Berry Plastics playing $500 hands of baccarat.

Is this gay dirty talk?

I think this thread is about 'gear'

They're going to weightlift together

How you doin??

I play 1-2 on Mondays and Saturdays about twice a month.. I like Saturdays around 11pm.. Drunk guys just giving chips away..

Where at? Around here?

1/2 is a different animal. People just refuse to 3-bet or value bet their hand.

Harrahs… Haven’t tried the one at the racetrack yet..

Nice. I've probably played with you at some point or another if you've been playing for years. If I'm at Harrahs on Saturday Night...which is rare...I'm probably that drunk guy you are talking about. Stopped coming on Saturday Nights because the place closes at like 430am and I can't play until after midnight on Saturday Nights.

Are we encouraging and condoning gambling here on CP?

THE SHAME, FOR SHAME! ROFL

This is true, but when people open to $25 in a 1-2 game a 3 bet can end up being half your stack LMAO

I used to live up at Harrahs and Ameristar in my 20s and into my early 30s up until i had kids

Yeah live 1/2 is pretty hilarious. I really don't even know how to play it well because I'm not really used to playing people like that and how passive everyone is.

When you play online with 5 pros and 1 rec all the good players are opening 2x to 2.5x max. While it is true you are more likely to play deeper live, even if you are deep you really shouldn't be opening more than 3-4x. When some old guy with a 2% range opens 14x it's just quite hilarious. Makes it a boring waiting game. I'll open to $6 at a 1/2 game and they will make fun of me thinking I'm an absolute reerun.

Poker was not meant to be played 9-handed IMO...yet anytime live they are down a player they start freaking out yelling FLOOR!!! WE NEED A PLAYER!! HELP!!!! If I get a full house I want to make sure I get paid!!!!! Then it will get down to 5 or 6 players and they will just quit and say they are bored.....even though at that time it SHOULD be the most exciting form of poker because you can play more hands and not have to sit there twiddling your thumbs for so long.

I remember playing 2/5 6-handed up at Harrahs during covid and thought it was great. But yeah, there's also nothing like opening up KK utg to $10 and getting 7 callers.

I’d come to KC to play poker sometime. I’m more of a 1-2/3 guy though. I’m not playing for farm payments.

What casinos have the best games 2/5 and 1/2 on weekends?

Told you there dudes ****in other dudes on here

The entire Arkansas basketball team is going to register now.

Only casinos that have poker now is Hollywood in KCK by the racetrack and Harrahs by the hospital north of the river. Ameristar got rid of it and Argosy hasnt had it in years. Your best bet for 2/5 is Harrahs on weekend. Hollywood has deepish 1/3 on weekends.

If you play tournaments the Run Good series will be here in mid May
