Lol did you even read my post???
I never said that Revel was in a bad location. I said, that Revel never offered the poker players any incentives or perks that would make any of us wanna leave Borgata to come play there(cause let's face it, almost all of AC's business plays at Borgata). And that's why the room failed.
It's $20 on the weekends to park at Wild West. What is the poker room doing about that? Are they matching tier cards? Do they care?
@ dipce: Revel had a great poker room food menu, too. How'd they do? ALL of the Harrah's properties have a shared BBJ and all their rooms combined don't hold a candle to Borgata.
"The management is competent." Big whoop. I can't remember playing in a poker room where the management made it a deterrent from me wanting to play there. All rooms are pretty much the same, some Floor will be great while others not so great and they'll be a big lump who fall right in the middle of the pack.
You HAVE to offer FREE rooms. You HAVE to make parking free. Those things matter! Way more than 'hey, they have a nice set of shops just down the street for the wives to go to while the hubby is playing poker." That's terrible advertising! Seriously, it is.
When a poker room does something for me, than I will do what I can to promote it. So far, I see no reason to leave Borgata. And before you say, "good, who cares?" If you want this room to be a success, than trust me, you should care because my thoughts are shared by most, which is why Borgata is still WAY ahead of everyone else. I would love to see every table in this place full, and with all sorts of games and limits and not just your $1/2 NL games(that doesn't interest me).
