[toddkrit 0]

Anyone ever play at the Turning Stone casino in upstate Ny? Was wondering how the games were and what they offered. Someone told me that the NL tables are a joke and that if you want a good game youve gotta play the 20/40 table!!! dont have the bacnkroll for that! Also wondered how the tournament structure was??thanks everyone

first time i played the 100 max 1/2NL game i cashed out for 650 in about three hours....take that for what it's worth. Never played limit there so can't tell you about that but the NL tables are quite donkish. Personally i really like their NL games, just play a patient, solid style and you'll get paid off.the tourney structure is marginal, not good, not great (i can't remember if the regular daily tourney structure is different that the structure that they used for the turning stone poker classic). But the structure for the turning stone poker classic was decent, no real big jumps in the blinds.edit : for their game selection they have 1-3 limit up to 20-40 (i believe) and for NL the always have a 100 max (1/2 blinds) usually have a 200 max (w/ 1/2 blinds) and sometimes have a 300 max (2/5 blinds). Very rarely they have a 300 MIN game 5/10 blinds (no max buy in)that 300 MIN game got real interesting when Al Krux (2004 wsop final table) was in town for the turning stone poker classic. He bought in for around 10K

He is bang on...except for a few things...the NL games are quite donkish and solid play should pay off...limit games are as well...played 3/6 and turned $100 buyin into $400 in 90 minutes...switched gears from tight to loose aggressive and the table really loosened up..I got paid off nicely...they have high limits as well...saw a 100/200 limit game with 6 players going strong...have a good time and win some $$

I've played 1/2 limit games at Turning Stone several different times and 1/2 NL games both seemed very soft/easy to me. Always walked away with a profit.

Whats this supposed to mean. Are u suggesting the lower limits are tougher?I have played up to 20/40 here and there is not a tough game in the house. The regulars are extremely weak tight and the best players in the house are predictable, so you will rarley be put to a tough decision. Look out for a plump 30 something who is a pro, he is the only decent player in the house and hes not that good.
