board on turn is 910J 10 then the river was the Q which negated the BBJ, because both hole cards no longer played, there was quite an uproar as I was in the room at the time, it was during the September tournament series

my friend was at this table, he drove home in tears. the table was counting the impending bbj on the turn when the unthinkable 1 outer came

That should make the lists at Caesar's even longer

Is the caesars poker room full most of the time?

Somebody please explain how the Q negates the BBJ?! The one guy still has a straight flush with two of his cards. (It's no longer the nuts, incredibly, but it still plays, doesn't it?)

the guy on the low end is now only using 1 of his cards (need to use both) for the best 5-card hand possible

Yep it hit at, of all places, the $2-$4 limit table!

360k: 180k loser, 90k winner, 11k+ everyone else.

I guess everyone is running over to Caesars now (565k). I called and the 2-4 limit wait (they are only spreading 1 table) is 9+ hrs long, 1-2nl is about 4-5 hrs long.. and that's not including the 200 people heading over there from Harrahs.

Is there somewhere to check the Borgata's BBJ ? I can't find the link on borgata's site. It used to be in promotions but now I only see stuff about tournaments there.
