I'm pretty sure it's their policy not to comp more than 2 days / week. I'm also pretty sure that people have asked and have gotten around this policy, but there's probably many factors that come into play -- your play, availability, willingness by person on phone, etc. Your best bet is to call them up and ask them.

$150/day hold on a credit card. I've never heard of them going around this. You can use a debit card, but it will lock up your available funds.

they make "one time exceptions" for deposits. if you are really desperate and do not have a deposit, just tell them and they will usually waive the deposit (and turn off room services). I've done this multiple times

as far as locking up available funds by using a debit card, that depends on the bank as well. for example, I have BofA and my funds do not get locked up when I use it for a deposit

If you can't cover the deposit I feel like staying at the Borgata is probably a bad life choice

With a black card, the buffet/Amphora is $10 comp dollars for me + guest, right? Not $10 per person?

Anybody have an issue with the May Bonus Comp Dollars ?
Shouldn't they have showed up by now ?

I played ~ 75 hours in May and no Bonus Comp is showing up in my account, should have $40.

Customers may activate Bonus Comp Dollars by inserting My Borgata Card into a slot machine or open a table games rating 6/5/15 - 6/30/15. No play required.

Have you done this? The bonus dollars don't just show up, you have to go again the next month. The couple times that I got them, I got a "You've earned..." email reminding me of that.

So I went to the customer service area and was told that they should show up on the 6th.

I still confused

, maybe I should talk to Poker room mgr.

Was playing a tournament yesterday at Borg and was told by another player that clock can only be called by players without live hands. He seemed very confident of this and I didn't feel like arguing. Last time I was down there I remember successfully calling clock on my opponent while heads up on the river in a cash game. Is there a house rule on calling clock at borg? Is there a difference between cash and tournaments?

I've seen clock called by both live and dead hands in cash games.

That suggests that you did it before the 5th. If so, they should have said you'd be able to activate (i.e., the system would know it was supposed to do something for you) starting on the 5th.
