Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa (Atlantic City, NJ) -- FAQ in OP, updated 2021.08.16 - Page 1003 - Venues & Communities -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Trump plaza has no poker room and the showboat tournament players
Will prefer the lower entry fees of the Harrahs/ballys properties, despite the better
Food. And lower amount taken out of each pot, the
Cash players are tied to the Caesar's promotions for low limit players:
High hand, diamond card, cash back, etc. Outside of the bbjp promotions, Borgata has not shown much
Interest in low limit players and is unlikely to attract them

I also leave my car at the Trop when I go to Borgata but its not really to save money. Even though the jitney upset me last Friday with its new route. Takes an extra ten minutes.

soon enough, you'd rather lose with quad 2s than quad Js.

So, if the big BBJ hits now, is the reset amount going to be bigger than what it just paid out?

The dollar raked goes a portion to the main jackpot and a portion to the reserve, right? And the big hasn't hit in a couple months, so the reserve is probably pretty healthy. Meanwhile the main jackpot is down to $85k from being quartered four times in three days. It'll take about three weeks to get that over $200k and set off the Frenzy again, if it can go that long without hitting.

Wow $85K BBJ I guess that bad beat frenzy won't go into affect for awhile now, and I bet that reserve is getting skinnier

Damn, is it that hard to buy a pack of Red Bulls at Walmart and keep them in your trunk?
On another note, I do not understand Borgata not giving out Red Bulls in the main room. Doesn't the Jameson I drink (they typically give me 2 shots worth at a time) cost more than a Red Bull? And players drinking Red Bull are likely to play longer resulting in more rake(time)?

Be careful on the casino wi-fi.

My home email started spewing spam on Thursday (someone logged in with my password, not spoofing the address), and my admin suspects sending mail from my phone when I was there last Saturday as the likely point they got it.

If you bet $2 you can get a drink ticket and get a bunch of stuff not on the menu in the poker room.

Really you guys are bitching about not getting red bull....Whats the big deal they give you everything else. In PA they give you nothing maybe draft beer with a couple of choices.

Settle down with the Red Bull. It's garbage and bad for you. Order a bourbon. Bunch of punk kids trying to act like the Cincinnati Kid.

Your reference to The Cincinnati Kid would be completely lost on the young guys since the movie was released in 1965, right around the time their parents were born.
