Professional was featured prominently on one of the old US Poker Championships from the Taj Mahal, I think.
Now, the mods rightly deleted my youtube link, thats OK by me. i actually like rules, and i apparently broke one.
But to find the link, search youtube for professional Borgata poker...it came right up.

Got 6 free parking vouchers and a letter saying I have $20 slot due to the class action lawsuit settlement. Nevermind that I get free parking anyways due to poker play and black card. Maybe I'll get something from the $20 slot to buy a sandwich. Almost worthless.

Much like pretty much every class action settlement ever.

Can you sell the parking vouchers or are they tied to your card?

That makes sense. If they didn't I would've expected Craigslist to be flooded with these but there isn't a single one listed.

What days is the 5/10 PLO spreading? I enjoyed that game. Or has everyone moved from 5/10 to 10/25? Whenever I look at bravo, I see a few 2/5 tables and a 10/25 usually.

will now run every day for the duration of wpt

otherwise it's hit and miss, pretty likely to run for at least a few hours on weekends

at least half of 5/10 players play in 2/5 as well (which runs almost around the clock), so you can go there and ask if anyone is interested in bumping it up

The beginning of every Open is like that. The lowish buy-in/high guarantee brings them out.

Cash Game Strategy Workshop
January 28 - 29, 2017
Someone's teaching the tournament players how to play cash?? That's not OK!

Bravo won't admit it,
But about an hour
Ago 150-250 players
Were waiting to be seated.
Yesterday the regular
Staff appeared quite
Haggard, harried, and grumpy
By five, why not call in
The reserves, about 50 dealers
And a dozen supervisors
So that poker players
Can play cash games?

197 players waiting to play 1-2 NL.
Apparently, they have used their
Limited resources available
In the past two hours
To open mid-limit games.
(Games where the house charges time.)
The games report lists 53
Tables, 12 1-2 nl at 4 pm.

Craps is 3-4-5x odds now. And strict on $15 bets (used to be able to have 125 odds on 6/8).

More and more reasons to not make the drive.

You know, other than poker.

Yes, well, about the poker,
The poker cash games have been awesome,
The bad beat went up by $6,000
In one day, the rake is the best around,
And the overall quality of the product
Is very high. I still can't believe
How good the cash games are
During this poker tournament.
(I woke up at 3 am to get a seat,
And the action never stops!)
I feel some of my opponents
Would play the same way at the roulette table!
I would even wander into the room
This afternoon if they had enough
Dealers so that i don't have to
Spend the better part of the afternoon
Watching the fresh coat of
Paint dry on the walls of
Bread and Butter, while i
Wait patiently and quietly to be called to a table...

Don't get me wrong the games are awesome and I'm pleasantly surprised there's so much cash game action this series. I am just disappointed with the lack of dealers. Usually Borgata's really good at starting tables quickly when there's a long list.

Got seated after an hour which wasn't too bad. Definitely much better than Sands still.
