First time ever to AC coming in May. I can get any Harrah's property comp sun-thur. I got one free room at borg sun-thur. Wife and I play mostly 1/3 some 2/5. Like long sessions. Will play light pit games if hammered.
So questions are....
1. Are the games worth a dam during the week? Big tourney series would help?
2. Which Harrah's property? I'm thinking borg first night then Caesers the rest of the time?
3. Boardwalk. Anything to do or see?
Thanks for all the help.

1. Games during the week are fine. Be selective in what tables you play at. If you play a wide variety of games, you'll do a lot better. For instance, I love playing the Borgata's 10/20 O8 and LHE games. I've never been in a bad game for those.
2. Harrah's in the marina for sure. Borgata then Harrah's is a good plan. Getting to the Boardwalk is as simple as taking a jitney over or even an Uber if you'd rather ride privately.
3. Walk the boards, enjoy the beach and the sea breeze, people watch, casino hop, grab a drink or a meal or hit happy hour at the bars and restaurants in the casinos, e.g., Morton's at Caesar's and everything in the Quarter at Tropicana. When you see a store that has a ton of weird statues in front of it, go in, act like you're interested in buying something, ask how much something is, and be absolutely shocked by how expensive it is. Those places have to be a front for something else because there's no way they're selling a weird statue of an eagle for $2.5k.
And of course you can skim the rest of this thread for other ideas. It might look daunting, but it won't really take you that long because you know what kind of stuff you're looking for. Have fun!
