    Low limit suggestions for midwest.

    Looking for a $5.00 or $10.00 shoe game in the midwest. (OH, IN, KY, MI) or (WV, KY, PA) I'll be traveling on business in those areas in the near future. Now.. I know $5.00 or $10.00 tables are not usually all that great but for this I am more interested in taking a few co-workers along for fun rather than doing serious play. Suggestions?

    My suggestion is don't play at the same table with them unless they want to help you. They could spread to multiple hands in lower counts and pile their bets on one hand in juicy counts. The can request lammers to hold spots for periods of time to prevent crowding or won out requesting lammers when the count goes really good. All these things can hurt them a little but if you can get a dinner comp at a nice place or a free room they may be happy to take the small hit.

    Good advice. This will be more a social session for fun and drinks. I rarely have a drink when I play so this for me will be entertainment and social aspects.

    Any suggestions on good locations. I know it is a big area but I will be traveling as I look for potential locations for to open a business location.

    In Pittsburgh, there are two casinos. In suburbs (Washington County), The Meadows Casino has a lot of $5 and $10 tables, most are ASM. In downtown Pittsburgh, The Rivers has only two $15 tables with ASM and all $5/$10 tables uses CSM. And the $15 tables change to $25 after 4 PM.

    The Meadows is your best bet but you need a car to get there. No bus.

    & to add Wheeling isn't far from Meadows and they have low minimums, $5-10, just be prepared to be the only person in the whole casino playing Tables.

    PS: Wheeling's games are terrible, but certainly would have the sitting room for you and your co-workers without a doubt Mushin.

    Thanks! Wheeling may work out quite well! Too bad the games are terrible but so long as they are good enough for some socializing and not overly loud. This may be the way to go.
