VIP Tables — Who Should Play and When
VIP tables mean higher blinds, stronger opponents, and bigger swings. At Baatryn Öröö, blinds go up to 10K/20K, with Omaha 6-max VIP tables running alongside high-stakes Hold'em. Ulaanbaatar evenings and weekends see the most action.
VIP is not status. It is a stake level. Move up only when your bankroll and skills justify it.
Stakes overview
| Type | Blinds | Table |
|---|---|---|
| Micro | 250/500 | Hold'em 9-max |

| Mid | 5K/10K | Hold'em |
| VIP | 10K/20K | Hold'em, Omaha 6-max |

Downswing reality
At 10K/20K, losing 5 buy-ins in a week is 10 million ₮. Strong players experience this. Weak bankroll management turns a downswing into a disaster.
Stay at stakes where that number would not end your poker career. Responsible gaming and bankroll management matter more at VIP than anywhere else.
