Im guessing it is going to be dead tonight after around 10? Was considering coming down later tonight.

From my experience, whenever there is a bad snow storm in AC, poker rooms tend to have way more players than they can accommodate given their number of dealers, not the other way around. The players are usually stuck inside the casino, while the dealers get stuck at home.

Thanks to the two people trying to be helpful with how it works to buy back in, but in fact I was at the Borg 6 months ago and they had no chip runners the day I was there, and the dealers ran out of chips at the table. You could NOT buy back in and were forced to go back to the window the entire night. I am a mildly +ev 2-5 player and did not have to buy back in, but it made the turnover at the table quite high, since every time someone lost a big hand they gave up and left. It also slowed the game down, since it would cause a long discussion each time it happened. The same night they closed the desk where the cards are handed out very early so if you didn't have your card with you, you couldn't get one, and combined with some flaky display machines, there was no way to validate rewards totals either.

That's why it took us 6 months to come back, but I'm glad we did. Everything was first rate this time and while I also like Taj just fine, Borg has won the war for NLHE at least, so there is a LOT more action at Borg.

That is weird. Never seen a problem with empting racks and usually fills do not take more then 15-20 minutes. Usually the floor personnel are good at keeping an eye on the rack and processing fills. Very surprised to hear it was an issue all night long, and not just something that was temporary.

None of the Atlantic City casinos have chip runners.

Stan,

Any news on the Razz approval ?

Last i heard, it will be at least 90 days until the CCC actually looks into the submission.

Same here, I was there for the big December storm and this was definitely the case. They slowly got enough dealers in to get more cash games going, but would have been impossible to run a large tourney. As it was many dealers were there for several days.

Just got back from a weekend of 5/10NL at the borg. I enjoyed everything, definitely run a class room.

There was some good action including at least two 10/25NL and an uncapped 25/50NL that ran until pretty late last night/this morning.

Stan, I sent you a PM with a question.

How long does the 11AM Tournament usually last Stan assuming you win it? How long is the final table usually? How many breaks are there during the entire tournament and for how long?

Thanks!

Stan, are you starting to feel like a factory worker who has been replaced by a robot?

Last 6 to 7 hours, levels and breaks attached.

I didn't know you could do this. Does anyone have details?

I believe it's in $50 increments, and you "buy" them in advance in AC, so you have to use what bring to Vegas.

thanks in part to stan I'll be down again next weekend (thursday-sunday)....anyone interested in getting a pink chip, or lower limit (lower then 150-300 anyway) H.O.E or H.O or whatever, just getting tired of Hold em all the time, and I am sure there will be PLO so I'm in for that too....NEXT WEEKEND(Feb 25th)....

Pardo

game report please! (and my friend BJLTNYK pmed you, stan!)

Stan,

How long does the Thursday 7:00 PM 100+20 usually last and around how many people are in it?

Any chance of a pink chip game running thursday night/friday morning?

thanks
