Because you really need that last card
Since the question “How did you do in poker on your Vegas trip?” is going to come up, let me answer that here.
Bottom-line: I played for 19:33 hours over 3 days and overall I lost but not very much.
I played $4/$8 Limit Hold’em and had a losing rate of -$27.85 per hour.
Then I played the next higher stakes $8/$16 Limit Hold’em and had an earning rate of $44.74 per hour!
So how is it that I was losing at the lower stakes but winning at the higher stakes? See my next post What Poker Stakes Should You Play? for the reason.
