In general Deep stack poker is defined as when the stacks are relatively deep when compared to the blinds. I personally would consider that 200 BBs or more is playing with a deep-stack. In general, my games buy-in will range between 80 BBs - 250 BBs Deep stack games are not easy to find in a home game and at the local casinos, deep-stack games are generally fairly high stakes. CA card rooms drop $5 every hand, roughly $150/hr. The vast majority of players in those clubs can't beat that rake. Eve …

(Please note: This is a women-only gathering) Ancient Belly Dance was once a sacred, sensual dance, made by women for women, to honor and invoke the mysteries of life. It was a space for women to safely express their wild beauty and desires, and sacred emotions of joy, sensuality and even grief. The ancient dance was a pathway to invite and channel the Divine, and prepare and celebrate a birthing mother-to-be. I teach ancient belly dance as an embodied spiritual practice of sensual movement, med …
