    SD game in NV - *very* easy

    Just came back from a playing trip in NV where I encountered a beautiful single deck game, $2-200 tables, 70-80% pen, DOA, h17, bj 3:2. Played heads up for a couple of hours spreading 2-100. Good dealers, no noticeable heat until back-off. Any guesses where I was?

    Haha. Good one. I thought the same when I walked in. Let me clarify: I played a *total* of two hours heads up, four hours in all. Intermittently, there would be between 1 and 3 more players, meaning I would switch between one and two hands. But I did get away with 4 hours of perfect game, totally undisturbed by either pit, dealers of ploppies. Until I returned.

    Sure, I know where you played. It's a place with no black chips.

    So if you won $10,000, they have to give you 400 green chips?

    Conditions and heat vary. Sounds like you were there at the right time. I had a dealer nearly run out of cards one time. She was alarmed. That's an exception though.
    There are days/shifts that I'll avoid due to crowding.

    yep. that's the one. how long would you leave it before returning (if at all) there? that is, after a back off? do they know what they're doing?

    A place that is often very smoky, and is related to a much-nicer place about ten miles southwest of it. I played there many years ago when a 200 max game was still acceptable to me. The place has changed little over the years.

    Since you were able to get down a good spread for a while, why not go 2-200 instead of only 100?

    Didn't have the bankroll with me to absorb SD fluctuations. When I returned the same evening armed, it was too late.
