He's only half right.

If you go too low then the stakes are meaningless for many players, they either won't play or they won't play 'properly'.

Well, of course he's never completely right.

Agreed - if the stakes are too low, it becomes the same as a play money game.  However, with the range of bankrolls on Blonde there'd have to be games across all levels to suit all players.  Is there a problem with having games available at all the different levels, and letting demand determine which ones are used?

4 tables is a good starting point.

the problem i would have at playing bigger than 10/20 cent is that no matter what the level the games are going to be harder than most games on the net so why play a 1/2$ game against good players when you can play much easier games on the network tables

i think the idea of the blonde only games is to have a friendly game with friends where you can wind each other up without looking like a pompus arse

So just vote for your preference then Jesus, it isnt supposed to be a mensa test. Wink



He's right though.


just so red can be proved wrong

It's certainly better than 0.  But, if for argument's sake we have 4 25c/50c tables - and they don't appeal to the players with a larger bankroll, then these players are never going to play the Blonde-only cash tables.  On the other side of this, if the tables are all $1/$2, then a lot of the people with smaller bankrolls will not play.

Is it possible to cover holdem, omaha and omaha hi-lo across the different levels with only four tables?

Yes, when i play, i play for a giggle (some of you may have noticed!)

I voted for 10/20c NLHE - 10/20c PL Omaha - 10/20c PL Omaha HiLo and 1/2 PL Omaha.

The general idea is to have 4 tables and see how they get used etc etc ...  This will also help us in running little private comps ... along the idea of perhaps added prizes to comps etc, where we might award the top 10 in a comp all $20 and they all sit at a cash table for a winner takes all cash session, or a timed game etc ... the ideas are endless, but I am just focussing on the levels of the tables at this moment in time.

Who is arguing for 4 tables at the same stake?

No one.  But with only 4 tables, and three games (NLHE, PLO, Hi-lo), you're not going to get more than one level for two of those games.

If you're trialling 4 tables for starters, I'd suggest it might be a good idea to have one each of NLHE and PLO at 10c/20c and one each at $1/$2 .... see how it goes.

Aye, drop the hi/lo. Perhaps make the Omaha slightly cheaper than the NLH.

25c/50c and $1/2 Holdem.

10c/20c and 50c/$1 Omaha.

Summat like that...

super idea - keep it small to make it inclusive as well as exclusive.

10c/20c sounds about right.

Can't see why not, they will be the same as any other tables, only difference you will have the pleasure knowing it was a fellow blonde who now has your buy in in front of them. Gives you a kind of warm feeling inside, doesn't it?
