This grabbed my attention and I was thinking of coming and playing this week until I saw you have a max buy in of £200. Is that right? 50bbs only?!
Ridiculous imo, if you're going to propose a cap on buy in 200bbs or £800 should be the amount.
You can't play down the streets with 50bbs, which is what cash poker is all about. |

| Agreed, £50-£200 is fine for 1/2, for 2/4 you can't have players sitting down with £50. £100-£400 at least. If that is too big for players, then 2/4 is too big for them, and keep it at 1/2. |

| No issue with a £50 minimum, it encourages fish, but certainly max buyin for 2/4 should be at least £400. Other than that, looks very good value and I will be visiting. |

Yeah I'll definitely make an effort to support this, if the £2/£4 buy-in is a little higher. How about a nice round £500? (If its not going to go as high as £800) _________________ http://www.alexbowler.com |

Encourages fish but minimises your edge against them. |

| Industry standard. 5% capped at £10, no flop no rake. |
