I hear that there's a $5/$10 NL (that's right - NL!) Omaha game in WV somewhere that gets crazy.

You know anything about that game. I'm only 3 hrs away so if the money is deep and the game plays big (as I imagine it would) I wanna be there.

Never heard about that game. Is this something recent that you heard about? At the racetrack, they'll spread 5/10 Omaha sometimes, but I don't know about NL 5/10. You might call and ask them if they would deal a 5/10 NL Omaha game if they got a lot of players that were interested.

In my three trips these were the games they had going:

Limit Hold'em
2/4 - My wonderful home right now
3/6
4/8
5/10 - Where I hope to be someday

NL Holdem
1/2
2/5
5/10

Omaha Limit
3/6
5/10

Seven Card Stud
I can't remember the stakes

Had a dealer tell the table that if you wanted to play with "gamblers" then 5/10 NL HE is where you could find them and if you wanted to find "real players" then 1/2 NL was where to sit. I think I gave him a look like he was from another planet. He said it so seriously I didn't know if he was being serious or joking.

In October, they are opening up the other games too, roulette, blackjack, craps, ect. They also say they would have some 3 card poker games too.

Players Club card nets you $1/hr played at the poker tables too. Heard a lot of people going on and on about how great that is.
