Question for Sky mods regarding cash game BIs
Hi guys,
Just wondered if there is a reason why the cash game BIs vary so much; for example:
2/4p you can sit down with £10 max or 250bbs
5/10p you can sit down with £20 max or 200bbs
10/20p you can sit down with £20 max 100bbs EXCEPT on the GANTON table which is 50bbs
anything above I think you can only sit with 100bbs max
Why is this???
Surely if you are a site that like to promote good BR managment, you would limit the lower levels to 100bbs like the higher limits....this makes more sense to do it at the low levels because these guys are more likely to be casual players with limited rolls...
Also is there an option to bring deep-stacked cash poker to the higher limits...I'm sure most of the regs at 50nl + would welcome having a couple of tables with 200bb max BIs.
Cheers.

here is the news from the poker guys...
"thanks for pointing that out... GANTON was an error on our part and has now been resolved.
with regards to max buy-ins on other cash tables, the standard is 100 BBs however as you have pointed out at the micro limits the max buy-in can vary up to 250 BB. this is a decison taken by the poker team a while ago and is enjoyed by many players"
thanks again scotty
Rich
