4 of a Kind
Alright, I have reviewed a number of other threads, and I think I know the answer. But I want to get input from others (especially peeps that have played with us). For those who have not played with us, here is some general information about our game:
- Up until now, we have only played no limit hold em. I recently fell in love with mixed games, so I am looking for the optimal mixed game fixed limit structure.
- NLHE blinds are .50/$1, but the game plays more like a $1/$2 game, and sometime a $3/$5 game. However, the $3/$5 dynamic is ONLY when a hand full of drunk fools show up, and I am not looking to structure a mixed limit game as a drunkfest. So think of it as a $1/$2 NLHE game.
- NLHE buy-ins range from $40 to $200 with the norm being about $100. It is not uncommon for (normal non drunk) players to be in for $300 to $500 total.
- We like action, so I DO NOT want for the game to feel restrictive when we shift to mixed limit games.
- I also do not want for the limit structure to be so low that half the players just chase everything to the river. That crap drives me nuts.
- Please keep in mind that most of my peeps are new to mixed games, so this will be a bit of a learning experience for them as well.
