I'm still thinking about my current live casino streak. I've recently written an article on my website about why I link live casinos vs. playing on the internet. Check it out - http://www.mypalal.com/poker/liveVSnet.cfm
The big reason I like low limit hold'em at casino is that you will get paid off with every winning hand. You just have to be patient to have a winning hand.
Every time I have the best hand going I will have at least 1 or 2 caller to the river just to make sure I actually have a hand. It never fails. They'll say, "I just have to see that you have it."
It's even better while slow playing. You will get maximum value for your premium hand.
It happened to me recently. I had the Jack of Hearts and a rag. The flop came King of Hearts, Queen of Heart and the three of Hearts. There was three of us in the hand. One player was betting out, I assume he had a King. The player to my right was calling and I was calling. Mind you that I'm getting pot odds at this point to stay in the hand and fish for the last heart.
The turn comes a rag and one more round of betting. The river comes the Ace of Hearts. I have the NUTS. The original bettor bets. The player to my right raises (she has the flush) and I reraise her with the NUTS. Surprisingly, the two bettor call my raise. The player to my right says as she's calling, "You must have the Jack of Hearts." I flip my Jack over to take the pot.
This happens all of the time. My feeling is that in Low Limit Hold'em, you see a lot of beginning players. These players like to play and they do. They hate giving up a hand and they are there to have fun.

That is verry true. In low limit poker people always seem to pay tou off when you have the nuts. It's nice to get real value out of your good hands. The real trick it to not give it back!
