Monday 10th April+Tuesday 11th April HORSE/DC Cash Games Discussion Thread
peripheraldecision:
As stated in the WCOAP discussion thread there will be cash games running on Monday and Tuesday before the HORSE event on the 12th.
I got clearance from work to come up and play and I'm yet to book the trains and accommodation because I need to gauge whether or not it's worth coming up for cash games prior to the HORSE event on the Wednesday. I'm already booked into EventBrite for the HORSE.
I'm very excited because it might be the only time England will ever see a live fixed limit HORSE cash game!
I made this thread so people can register their interest in these games, discuss whether FL or PL is preferred, what kind of stakes, and what sort of time people can be expected to show up so we can all convene to play together etc.
Personally I would like to play 2/4 limit with 50p ante and £1 bringin in the stud rounds but there has been mention of 2/2 DC also. A lot of us aren't made of money and anyone who has played PL DC knows it can get expensive fast, and I'd prefer to keep the games going over the course of the two days rather than people running out of money because they got stacked, hence why fixed limit is the way to go.
Not only that, it will be great preparation for the HORSE event which will be in the same sort of format.
I will be in the casino early Monday afternoon.
If you see a guy who looks like this:
Yeah, that's me ;D

I'm sure you'll have interest in this Adam - I'll keep my eye on it and if the desire is there, just let me know and then I'll only be too happy to discuss it with the venue to get it off the ground for you guys.

What kind of buy-in do these games need?
peripheraldecision:
Optimum buyin for £2/£4 limit is going to be 16 big bets plus 1 ante, so £64.50. But nobody in live poker reloads as soon as they go 1 chip under unlike online so it's probably best to sit with between £80 and £100.
Reason: in the stud variant rounds of HORSE if all streets are capped you would have bet £64.50.
You could sit with less than optimal amounts but then you would be denying the opportunity to profit by the maximum number of big bets.
Pretty sure the minimum would be 5 big bets so £20 if it's anything like online.

Interesting thanks Peri. Thought it would be much higher, never played it live but would definitely be interested in playing a HORSE cash game. Oh and definitely FL for me. Have already spent £400 buying in online to these events and would definitely like to keep the cash affordable, definitely
