hey guys i'm heading over to vegas this weekend for some gambling and this will only be my 2nd time heading over there (as i'm from VA, i just hit up borgata for poker)
now i've only played 1/2NL at the tables and i've always done decently well, and i'm just curious about the 2/5 games. I'm only taking about a G for poker and do you guys think it's worth it for me to go into a 2/5 with only two buy-ins? if i lose a G i don't care but i'm not planning on playing with more of my money that i'm taking.
I have a good grasp on 1/2 and i know i'll be alright if i stay in those stakes, but 2/5 just sounds so filling to my appetite. my friend says there's less donk playing at 2/5 which would help my style of play out considerably.
last time i was at the venetian i had a nice little 6 hr grind and the feeling of having a pyramid stack of red nickels (4-3-2-1 style to make a G) always feels nice.
So I'm scared for getting a couple bad beats at the 2/5 table and losing two buy-ins, but at the same time i'm interested in a more thought-provoking style of play...
what are your suggestions? and also how are the 100-150 dollar buy-in tourneys? which is the softest? i expect the tourneys to be at 40-50 peeps?
