Been noticing I can't book rooms anymore. I'm a black label and always could book 2 room during the week for the past 3 years.

My hours of poker have actually gone up this year as compared to the last 2 years.

Has any other black labels experienced this?

"I'm going to be in town tomorrow, it'd be fun to pay some affordable stud!"

NYCNative, this is a poker forum, I think we should keep the discussion to poker related topics.

What you do on your own time, with handsome cost-effective guys, is nobody's business but your own.

Does this game run on Mondays? I'm going to be in town tomorrow, it'd be fun to pay some affordable stud!

it seems from the past 2 weekends the 20/40 stud runs quite regularly. the 10/20 less so and i don't recall ever seeing a 5/10 stud. not sure what you classify as "affordable", but depending on your game and the table, stud can be far less swingy than holdem.

I am a $1/2 NLHE player and a buy-in of $300 or so is great for $5/10 and I have played the $6/12 OE game at Parx but much higher than that and I need to put more on the table and I don't have the bankroll for that.

Just saw bad beat is at $85K, it must have hit twice?

Perfect time for Razz then.

I'll be down today. Start the list and I'll get on it too. See if we can't get this thing off the ground again. Or i could hit the BBJ since I am only at the table when it's under 100K. Lol

He won't do anything that, in his opinion, might jeapordize the 15-30-45 OE game that he worked so hard to bring over from Taj.

I highly doubt that a razz game would interfere with a two-way game of O8/stud8. Two completely different games, and, tbh, most people that play at the borgata(and even the the ones who enjoy mix games and such) don't really care for razz all that much; if they did, you would see it being played in the mix. I can't tell you the last time I played the game and I play mix games all the time.

If you guys can gather up a enough people to fill a table, then more power to ya. This weekend would've been the perfect time for it---very busy and there's all sorts of crazy games goin on right now.

This is a game of "Lodden thinks." It's not a matter of whether any of us think the games would interfere with each other (fwiw, I don't think they would) but whether the poker director thinks they would. And since he's made made a series of head scratching decisions in that regard - the refusal in 2013 to allow 10/20 OE players from Harrahs to bring the game over to Borg, the 4/8 O8 double comps drama that killed the 10/20 game for a while, the 15/30 O8 can only run in the middle of the night decision, etc - who knows what he thinks about mid-limit Razz on a weekend.

I was not feeling well this weekend ended up slumming at 1/2, would have had no chance to follow a Razz game. 8/16 seems low, did you ever put yourself on the list cause I didn't get a chance to look, as well the 2/5 player who was interested in a Razz game was not there.
