I want to take this opportunity to say how thoroughly awesome the Borgata cash Thursdays are. Its like free money!!!

Congratulations on your $600 win.

Stan

I am glad that you asked this question. Yes, the Borgata will hold the Friday 12pm (noon) $50k Guaranteed tourny. I can understand why you are torn. Will there be an overlay at the Borgata tomorrow? Quite possibly!

Stan

4 10-20s on a Thursday afternoon. Limit is back, baby!

LOL.....don't tease us like that.....I give it about a 1% chance of an overlay.

Last Friday we made the guarantee by 13 players. That was without the USPC going!

Stan

Wow, didn't notice that.

BTW...just got the Free Parking pass for Nov-Dec...Thanks! Also...plan on playing in that Triple Play Deep Stack.....1,000+ players I would think.

Re: pcg yesterday...it was the the 5 handed and breaking mm 10/20 OE that turned into a rocking pcg w/ FULL kill...we should do that more often

And once the pink game broke, about a third of the table migrated to 1-2 PLO, which was a similarly fine game.

I'd prefer not to remember that part of the night

also as an interesting point...we wanted to change the mm 10-20 OE to just omaha to keep players...we couldn't do that (since there was an OE)...so we switched to pink

Really? 1k+

Stan what do you think?

Which tourny are we talking about?

Stan

How late did the game end up going? I left at like 12:15.

Made for an enjoyable first (real) trip to the Borg. Stan, you run a pretty good room.

Stan, will the pokerroom be showing the Strikeforce MMA fights on saturday? They are from 9pm-12am. They are on CBS, so its not like it is pay per view. If I am there and they are not on, am I able to ask one of the floor people to turn it on one of the tvs ?

If it's on regular TV we should be able to show it.

Stan

Hello All,

Long Time browser of the thread ("onlooker" as termed by Stan and Tab) and first time poster.

I was at the big B and met "Stan-the-Man-Ruler-of-the-East" and Tab. It was wonderful meeting them both in person. I wanted to add myself to the list of admirers for the Borgata Poker Room, you run a great room and great tournaments.

I played some 1-2 NL with mixed results and the 11:00 AM tournament (93 entries). Finished 9th. Overall had a great fun.

I thought I would recap both the best and worst hands in 1-2NL:

Best: Had pocket 7's and raised to Seven in EP. Two callers joined the $7 party.

Flop: K,7,J (Rainbow, suits unimportant for this hand) (Pot: $24)
I check (not worried about Set of K's or J's as they didn't raise PF), 1st Caller makes it 15, Second Calls, I Call. (Pot: $69)

Turn: 3
I check, 1st Caller checks, Second makes it $20, Call, Call (Pot: $129)

River: 3
I go all in for $100, 1st Folds, 2nd Calls. (Pot: $329)

2nd Shows: K3 for 3's Full of Kings

I Show: 7's Full of 3's and Scoop!

I haven't seen a guy in my life who was so excited in losing a pot and still be happy. He kept saying that is good poker, that is good poker and left the table.

Worst: Had pocket K's, raise to 15, got one caller with a Phillies Jacket (he bluffed me earlier with Pocket 5's on a 10, K, J, J, 7 board, I had Ace+10 and laid it down for a $100 River Bet).

Flop: all low cards with 2 hearts.
I bet all in for $100 more (no aces on flop), he calls and flips over Ace+King (One Heart)

Here we go on a race, at least no Aces on the flop!!!

Turn: Heart and River: Heart and he gets his King high Flush and jumps with joy. Sorry I couldn't share the same enthusiasm for losing as the earlier guy.

As California Governor says "I will be BACK!" soon.
