What's the difference between casino rules and home rules for stud poker?

Anyone ever play at the Chestnut St. Social Club??  Used to be down in Chinatown, I heard it moved to Barclay Street though.  Don't know the new address or phone number, if anyone's got it can you shoot me a PM??

At home usually the high cards leads the betting and has the option to check after the first three cards are dealt.

In the casino game, the low card is forced to 'bring in' forcing some action on the table. Plus at home there is usually a 'spread limit' menaing that you can bet anywhere from, say, a quarter up to three dollars and can raise in whatever increment you want. In the casino it is hard to find spread limit games (although they do exist). It's usually 5/10 or something similar where each round of betting is a predetermined amount.

Casino rules suck and can lick my sweet ass; therefore, next time I am at a casino I will continue to dominate the craps table.

You never know which players are sending cards to each other through FTP when you play in the internets. Don't do it, it's too risky.

I've seen some ridiculous shtein playing online, but the fact is that I've seen equally ridiculous shtein playing live. You can just play more hands and a lot faster online so the number of times you see things that "shouldn't" happen is increased. Whatever. Live is more gooder.

poker is cool and all, but its alittle annoying when its on 10 different channels at all times of the day and night.  id rather play or watch pool.

I agree that we're going through a little bit of poker overload right now, but it's good for me. I finally have people to play cards with.
