What should the "Seven Deuce Game cost at my stakes? (1 Viewer)

[sup_squidy]

$0.25/$0.25 game where the typical buy in and rebuy is $25 What should the cost be to each player?
bonus question what's a good stand up game loser price?
I want some of them to try these games for the first time and not hate it.

$1 from every player.

We ante a buck to get it started and then rake a quarter each pot.

Yeah that’s as high as I’d go. Those sort of games always seem bizarre to me, where an uninvolved innocent bystander can get hit for a penalty for no reason at all. Four big blinds is more than enough.
There should be some sort of mechanism whereby if a guy tries for the 7/2 bonus and fails, he has to pay everybody at the table!

Interesting I like this only tax the winner wouldn't bother newer players so much. Not to mention the "jack pot" building will create an interesting dynamic the larger it grows. How long does your jack pot usually last before someone claims it? What's the typical payout?

He loses the pot lol

He loses the pot lol

As he should. And now I want him to pay an additional penalty for trying to steal my four blinds!!!

We did 4BB at @Highli99 last game, which equates to $2 per person. We also declared that if a person was felted, they were not obligated to pay, unless they rebought.

I like this. Always felt gross when someone loses their stack and have to go into pocket to pay out some little side game.

Yeah, it's only $2, but at the same time, a slap in the face too.

It’s much worse during the stand-up game when you have to keep rebuying lol

We play 50c/50c and pay $1 per person for 72 game and that works quite well.

My group has always done 4 bb at similar stakes. We tried implementing a rake to build it up but found newer players would focus on it too much haha. It’s definitely interesting when it builds up after a while!

 

[LeLe]

5bb per person at 1/1 to 2/2 stake and the last person to fold pay double the 2-7 penalty as well

I was just watching a Boring Brad Owen video and he was playing $25/50/50 in Bobby’s room. They paid $200 each for the 2/7 game. So that seems pretty definitive to me.

$1 or 1 big blind

I saw this and thought, 'What should the stakes in a duece-seven (lowball) game be?'

I have a dream.

 

[JustinInMN]

2-4 big blinds seems pretty standard to me.

$2 is good if all must play... if it is only those that want to play, then we usually go $10 on a $100 buy in... 10% of buy in, if voluntary.

But 27 game is very 2022... we now have mostly upgraded to 23o... aka "The Dirty Diaper" game! Haha

Hopefully your stack when you get caught trying to bluff with it to win $2 from everyone
