i played 10/25 plo at the borgata last night... had a win with my partners for bout 33k, and my last session ended something like this... i open up utg with AsKdKh9s for $100... i get called in 4 places... my stack is $2400. Everyone has me covered. flop comes out Ks8s6s.... jack pot flop imo... i check, it checks around. turn comes Jh i lead out 350. get called in one spot. I am 90 percent sure guy caught JJJ... Anyway everyone folds behind.. river comes Jc.... so i check and the guy pots it.... i think about it for all of 10 seconds and say **** it... here is a christmas present... and i shove the last of what i have in the middle.. of course he tables the 4 jacks i knew he had....

I checked at the Kiosk last night, and all offers are showing there. The slot dollars are back, but the rest are not showing up on the website when I signed in this morning. (Other than some sort of room offer that doesn't offer much - it's not the poker room offer, and certainly not the comped offer.)

Looks to me like there is some sort of updating/problem/programing issue going on in the Borgata's IT department, and it is affecting how things appear when we check on line. I have no idea of any specifics of this - just taking an educated guess.

When I called to make room reservations, they knew about the poker rates and comp rooms - so that's not an issue. All offers show up on the kiosk - so the problem isn't there. It's an on-line only access thingy.

Hope that this helps point you in the right direction.

Please do keep up the good work!

Now, if we could only get pink chip games going more often........

Happy holidays!

Lee
I will have someone from IT check this out.

I was at The B Tues night, all day Wedns and Wedns night. Thanks as always Stan.

PLO (1-2) game broke out Wedns night and it was REALLY fun. We started with 6, never dipped below that and had as many as 9. The game ran from about 5:30pm - 1:30am. Around 10:30 (maybe earlier?) it got crazy as we started doing tequila shots with Miller Lite chasers. The game was a ton of fun...Decent amt of $$ on the table as well. Between the steady 6 players (all way above avg) the smallest stack was about $550 or $600.

The game got called at 3pm....3 players showed and the floor (and players) gave up. It got called at 4:15, same deal. I was visiting with Stan at around 5:15 and told him I was dying to get out of hold'em hell and was disappointed the PLO game couldn't get off the ground. He went and started the game himself. He had them announce the game....had the PA announce we had 4 players....had them announce we had 5 players...within 5 mins we had 6 players and it was a go. The guy is awesome. 20 mins later we had 8 and the game was humming.

I'll be back down Sunday. I wanted to play the Deep Stack Triple play but I can't get out of work Monday. Crazy time of year and my boss is out so I have to be here. Blowwwwwwwwwwws. I'll be there for some cash games though. Hopefully PLO, Pink O8 or some pink mix game.

If I played with you in the PLO, thanks for a fun night....hope to see you guys again some time.

Stan, how often has it been hitting there? Does it get up to much before it gets hit? I would think your average is pretty high. What are the details anyway??

Sadly, I'm not going to make it down this weekend (so I won't help start the PCG). I was holding out hope to the end, but stuff just came up that I have to do tomorrow.

There's always next weekend.

best bet is to google robert's rules of poker. borgata's rules are slightly different, but not much.

Weekends in December before Christmas are usually quieter. I usually can not get comped weekends at Harrah's. This month, I have every weekend comped (except New Years).

After Christmas, gambling activity will pick up back through the New Year.

THIS!

I know I probably did not qualify from just my poker play, but I was quite the pit/video poker whore in November - and I got no offers for January/February.

Kinda surprised at the turnout for the triple-play. Expected more today for sure. Then again, there are probably many like myself who have FREE rooms for Sunday night and will drive down tomorrow for 1c. I still think it will get near 1,000. See you tomorrow...looking forward to it.

1a - 222
1b - 206
1c - 572?

Yea Sunday will be easily over double day 1 a, I'd expect around 500 for sure. I'm not surprised at all at the numbers so far.
