Escott said:Gee Larry thanks for telling me you weren't going to the Casino in Sosua. Breezes is in Cabarete. I won 800 pesos while waiting for you to show up so I am not mad!
I hope you mean they have a $50 table and others.Larry said:at Breezes resort. I don't know if it is technically Sosua or Cabarete but it just past Sea Horse ranch. The game is nightly at 9 pm and is in USD with $1,$2 blinds and a $50 minimum buy in.

Mango Larry has a nice ring to it. Man I think I am going to use it from now on. I got there at about 10 pm. Was out real late unfortunately. Now I have to play with Patrick which is difficult.Larry said:Scott, I WAS in playa chiquita last night from 8 until 8:30. You said you were taking a nap and 'might' drop by the casino later. Had I known you were coming, I would have waited.

I agree, the concept is not a scam. (However, it could be a scam if they are playing with bunch of shills). I played in a similar game a few times in Boca Chica. It seemed legit.duhtree said:Malibook, If the texas holdem game is played at 1,$2, minimium buy in of $ 50 WITH three raises maximum there is no scam. Often times a player will buy in for a fixed amount and when the heat builds and they tap out they will buy in for more chips. These are not texas hold em, no rebuys, all in games or tournaments. At least that is my experience. John
This makes sense.duhtree said:Malibook, If the texas holdem game is played at 1,$2, minimium buy in of $ 50 WITH three raises maximum there is no scam.

Malibook said:Okay, it is not a scam.
I would assume the blinds do not go up in this format and is it really no limit?
It doesn't seem right to have people going all in and just buy more chips if they lose.
The potential scam of it is that you can have a few associates with extremely large stacks working in concert against the much smaller stacks.
I have only played tournaments and with friends.
When a player is doing well in a game and builds up a chip advantage, it is a big advantage but it is earned and deserved.
It hardly seems right that someone would be able to buy such an advantage but if you don't mind, go ahead.
If it is no limit, why not just continually play with low stacks so nobody can force you out with too big a bet.HOWMAR said:You obviously have never played in a casino regular nolimit game. Remember, if you are the low stack, you are only puting that at risk.
If you were to join a game in progress, you expect all the other players to lower their stacks to your buy-in. I don't think so.

I have never played in this format.
Are you claiming that Duhtree doesn't know what he is talking about with regards to his experience?
You're not making any sense.Malibook said:If it is no limit, why not just continually play with low stacks so nobody can force you out with too big a bet.
Duhtree says there is no all in and there is a maximum of 3 raises.HOWMAR said:He is saying exactly the samething that I am.
At the Paradise resort in Playa Dorada, there are often a few amigos with several thousands of dollars in chips at the poker table.rellosk said:You're not making any sense.
Malibook said:Duhtree says there is no all in and there is a maximum of 3 raises.
You say it is no limit.
So you think these are exactly the same?
You have no idea where I play and for what stakes so what makes you think I would give a sh!t about your asinine suggestion?
