I'm going again Tuesday to play 10/20. If you around stop by. You wouldn't believe how juicy 20/40 was. i.e. 3 or 4 limpers and small blind raises with k10off. It was awesome!

yea that was me, i had like 7 something in front of me, and yea i def had good position on you.
what would you say is a standard BI for 20/40?

This doens't mean you can get the rate. There's a fixed # of rooms at that rate so you might not get it if you wait till the day of. Also make sure you go, as the $59 is charged immediately.

H'mm, I don't think I was quoted such a low price when I called last week.

i usually BI for 1g with the appropriate backup closeby, swings can be sick, but game is good. sometimes the 10/20 has better players on it than the 20/40.

Stan,

Is Borgata going to implement the self sign up kiosk? I think it works quite well at other casinos.

And the 2-5 min/max? Just 40-500? You can see why there's much fewer 5-10 games these days, when they upped the 5-10 from 1500 to 2000 many people dropped down to 2-5.

Strange that the 2-5 max is 100 big bets, whilst the 5-10 is 200 big bets. A much deeper stack game.

Any thoughts to updating it?

maybe offer both table types. 2-5 (500) and 2-5deep (1000)... or just swap it to 700.. why does everything have to be in increments of a rack?

Does everyone buy in deep at the 5/10 game? Also do people just buy in with stacks of green or something else?

All i know is the game got tighter when most people who usually bought in for $1k (1500 max) were now short stack against those who bought in for $2k.

Used to be 5+ tables of 5-10. I really think they need to reevaluate as the drop in tables from 2-5 to 5-10 is so stark.
