In general, I have been getting some e-mails that detail some casino companies intention of extending offers, status, deadlines and expirations, etc. Nothing really firm yet, since its all up in the air still.

Lowest limit available at Borgata is 2-4. Wife did play it on her brithday trip w/me 18 months ago. I don't think its 2-4-6, but I could be mis-remembering. What I do remember is her hitting a high hand for $300.00, so for sure its worth it for you playing it for fun.

It used to be 2/4 LHE at the Borgata, I remember as well.

But when I was in AC in February, it seems all the poker rooms in AC had abandoned 2/4. It was 2/4/6 not just at the Borgata, but at Ballys etc. as well.

ummm...i'd imagine they'd extend the offer. Borgata has the best phone customer service, when they're open they'll be able to figure that out for you.

I think 2/4/6 goes at borgata most days. 1/1 nl might go at ballys?

Atlantic city responded with a local covid 19 center at the convention center I'm not sure of the % usage but south jersey is on point to deal with our local issues. There is a testing location at the Hamilton Mall for those who need it with a Dr .prescription. Patience and social distance are factors that are working stay vigilant wash your hands wear a mask and give 6 ft. Stay safe and take care.....

I remember that 1/1 game LOL. I used to play it when i was 21 - 14 years ago LOL.

That's when they had the poker room upstairs. I used to love going to ballys when I was younger. I don't think I would enjoy it as much now that i'm older LOL.

Their sports book area is super super nice. When wild west is busy its kinda cool vibe. The other 5 days of the week ballys/ww is super dead, and creepy.

Just a thought for the Gov and local lawmakers, with the area watching the pulse and crest of this scourge I stand by the importance for safety of the tourism value of the beach community of A.C. Reopening should be slow and limited with the merchants and restaurateurs proving their ability to provide a safe spot restrict the # of sit-down's in the Baltimore grill(eg) to 20 keep the 6 foot distance to stay safe The casino machine will be slow and distant to reopen but this town has heart... and in a month or so walk on the boards with a slice of pie or dinner in Los Amigos with some social respect will be a welcome start to a return to antes and blinds please

I have a 4 night trip booked in the middle of July - hopefully poker will be on by then.

After listening to the Governor of NJ talk, there might not be anything open by mid-July.

And that really sucks. AC as we knew it will never be the same

I actually really liked Bally's. I acknowledge that it's old, dirty and in much need of improvement in different areas but it had charm.

The combination of being on the boardwalk, great diamond lounge, poker room, new sports book, Dunkin, cheap rooms with large soaking tubs, etc....made it awesome, imo.

I'm glad Bally's got sold, it's been a long time coming. Will be interesting to see who makes it through this and reopens. I'd like to see Bally's get knocked down, too

I figured ballys would be next to close prior to all this.. good for city if they reopen as a different casino. Hopefully they'll do ok and give city some competition. Caesars keeping their renovated part in w.w.. wise move on their part.

It'll be interesting to see how or if it affects the poker room since being in the Wild Wild West Casino that kind of straddles Bally's and Caesar's. It made sense when both properties were CET.

Also only Harrah's for WSOP circuit events in AC now unless this causes Caesar's to (re)open their own room; not sure how likely that is.

It says WWW will be part of Caesars. So I guess they're selling pre-expansion Ballys.

Ill give a trip report of AC post 3/12 since i have been here since that time.
I have been basically been self quarantined with my wife since mid February and been home in nyc for 2 out of the last 50 days (3/10 through 3/12) . My wife really wanted to play the harrahs o/e event and I gave in and that's the last time we did not social distance.

Ac has been super empty since late march as not only casino hotels closed down , so did all the hotels on pacific ave were also forced to shut down unless they had lt tenants.

the boardwalk and beach have been open the whole time, and it had been very spaced out and not full at all, (its a wide boardwalk so that helps) , but they closed down the Ventnor boardwalk , so now they are coming to the AC boardwalk , so its been a little more crowded the past 2 weeks. I still do my daily bike ride with no problem .

whitehouse has been closed since late march (i know they had takeout around 3/24) , they closed the outlets around late march as well.


its been empty but boom super market and villita open, even though i have had to avoid villita because they dont know to to social distance.

ive never seen pacifiic ave so empty. just security guards around the casinos , and the casinos did not bother to bring in their sandwich boards so sometimes it feels like they are open when on the boardwalk.

Just to consider, for the love of our neighboring states we all want to get out for some rec. How ever with a populous of 9 million or so with cabin fever from the big apple and 2 million from philly, the gaming houses on the beach will become a mixing dish for a catastrophic re- laps The businesses are wanting to open restricted, just give it some time to allow the health personal to work on a sane path forward. How about opening the board walk with guidelines for a burger or a beer to take a stroll on 6 feet away of course
