Live game, low min/max buy-in question

    Default Live game, low min/max buy-in question

    The local card room I play at offers $1/$2 NL tables with a min/max buy-in of $60, I also believe as soon as you're at $59 or less you can rebuy to $65 total. There's no kill, and the rake is 10% up to $4 max.

    I play online almost exclusively and I'm thinking of trying out the live games. When I sit down at a ring table online I usually buy-in with about 75bb, so with a set buy-in of 30bb seems a little light to me.

    Is there any advice anyone can give me about playing in a game set up like this one?

    Thanks in advance

    Your place or my place
    Go All-In a lot and rebuy liberally. Read my shortstacking thread in the SHNL forum. Basically people will still have the "OMG ALL IN MEANS SUPER POWER ACES" even though its only 30bb.

    Where is this? We had a similar structure at One Eyed Jacks in Florida.

    Yeah, that's the place. SKC.

    Even LA formats are better than this.

    Yeah, GAMB00L it up and felt top pair until you're at least 100bb deep (which is still not very deep given the action those games give.)
