On a drunken night a few weeks ago, I discovered there was some sort of poker in the only casino in my city. No limit is apparently illegal or something in this state, so they only have limit or pot limit.

The biggest game they have is a 2.5/5 pot limit with $300 max buyin. The players are over the top bad and I've since been back and booked a few small wins. I was just wondering if its worth playing this for a few hours a week as the players are so bad, but the bad part is its such weird format with the 300 buyin etc.

What are the main adjustments I should be making? Considering I'm used to grinding nl50/nl100 6max online

Not playing while drunk, is definitely a good start, heh.

Looks like the blinds are high for the buy in and this game could get out of balance quick. It will likely play very high variance. If you are the one with the big stack, you can gobble up stacks like no ones business. So be careful if you are going to play this short rolled.
