Those who bust out from the tourney will start a cash game. No-limit hold'em, $1/$2. Uncapped buy-in and unlimited live straddle will be allowed.
7-2 rule will be on in the cash game.
Win with 7-2 pre-flop, everybody at the table pays you $2; win with 7-2 post-flop, everybody at the table pays you $5.
7-2 rule will not be enforced if the player with 7-2 is given a walk in the big blind (this has never happened, but here's the official disclaimer).
In order to play you will have to present your ID of which I will take a picture. You will not be allowed to play if you don't have an ID. Must be 21 or over on game day.
In case of any disputes I will be the one making the final ruling.
Respond yes here AND text your name to 415 261 3940 for an address in Castro Valley, CA in order to reserve a spot in the game.
Folks with no cars – you can take Uber from Castro Valley BART to my house for ~$15.
