I've been that guy before. It's not that bad. You are pegged for a fish by default which is juicy.

Debating heading up today.

I will be in AC next weekend, does the Borgata ever spread at stud hi game lower than 30-60? I would like to play stud live, local casino never spreads it but 30-60 is way to rich for my pockets.

I've heard stories about the once-legendary pink chip game at the Taj that was action-packed. Was this the same for the Omaha H/L game?

If so, you combine that with the fact that there are so many bad O8 players... Yummy.

That's exactly what I did. I got a Harrah's diamond card and asked to be upgraded to black. It would have been impossible for me to get it by playing 1/2 at the Borgata. I should be able to hang onto it now that I'm playing 2/5.

And, really... $5 is NOT a big deal. If you're hopping from room to room, you just ask for a parking transfer (a receipt) the first time you pay. That gets you free parking at the next place. Now, you're down to $2.50

I know all about the parking transfers, but it's still a big deal to me. I have a condo in AC, and sometimes I have guests and might eat at the Canal Street Deli (Showboat), stop by the shops at Caesars, show them around Borgata, hang out at the beach and boardwalk for a while, then gamble in a couple places at night. It's nice to just go wherever you want without having to worry about parking.

When pink was spread at the Taj, it was started because of, and usually only during ATLARGE. And, those games were waaaaaay above the rim. It played 2-way sometimes, LHE/O8. It was like playing 30/60 with pink chips. I believe that the Taj can/does still spread pink... it just doesn't have the luster over there.

I can see where all varieties of pink will do well here at the Borg, though.

There were multiple PCG games going last. After the PLO game broke I sat down at a shorthanded OE and the action was fast, furious, and fun. I know at the other tables they had a lot of big stacks as well and the dealers who ran our game kept it going at such a rapid fire pace, we were easily getting in 20+ hands a dealer. Hopefully PLO going again tonight, cause I'm headed back down. GL ALL

I don't like to give estimates on numbers but it should be a good one.
