I think 1-2 would get more people, though. > > Like you said, the 5-10 is tough, and even though I’d actually like to play it, I need to manage my “poker bankroll.” I’ll be entering a WSOP Circuit Event in March in Atlantic City ($300 buy in) and I have other things around to pay, so a lower buy-in would make me happy, anyways :love: No… standard tip would go to the dealers… if you have a rake box and PA’s finest decided to show up, then your in trouble… no rake = legal. The thing about 5-10, is your hand is respected a lot more… there is basically no sucking out… well I shouldnt say there is no sucking out, but its a hell of a lot less than 1/2 or 2/5. If you have a good night, there is no reason you shouldnt be able to walk away with 2k plus with a $500 buy in. $500 buy in at 10 people is $5000 on the table… and thats at min buy in… down at wheeling when they start the 5-10 there is $15,000 on the table… one night some guy had $26,000 in front of him alone… it gets crazy. Hence why I think if this happens we will only proably see $2-$5. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/poker-interest-texas-holdem/194950)._
