I wish I had the balls to play for that much $$ lol. Obviously I don't play it enough, I try to arrange a game once or twice a month. Usually 20 $ a buy in. Sorry, i'm not contributing much to your original question, just contributing in general

That's a great way to play. I used to have a weekly cash game with a minimum $20 buy in with blinds at .50 and $1. You could also do sit and go's with the below structure:

1000 in chips = 400 in 25's and 600 in 100's.

$20 buy in. Blinds go up every 15 minutes. Final 3 decide payouts or if they want to play to 1 person.

gotta start somewhere man, i started playing in college $5 buy ins at the dorm, then we all started playing online in the .10/.20 NL tables with like $10 or $20, but i still play the occasional $20 game at home with friends too, its always a good time

indeed it is. I'm so bad at keeping my emotions in some times though. haha. Pressure amounts really fast. That's why it's so impressive to see these players put all this money on the table and they bluff their way out of it. Very impressive
