PS @jimk and Bersicker

So everyone working in a poker room has to go out of their way to be nice to you? Smile atcha?! Say "hey fella how are ya!" I've never once had a floor be rude to me there in fact, I pointed out a random card on the floor behind my table there to a floorman and he gave me free time at my 2/5 game for that down.....OMG they didn't rub your shoulders and tell you how happy they are to see you?!....well maybe their "businesslike demeanor" or rudeness comes from dealing with pleasant and understanding people such as yourself on a daily basis...

lastly, sweet unsubstantiated generalities and comments saying "they are so rude, and so bad" while providing no back story or evidence...

/Pardo Rant
wow someone has a lot of down time...and no no one has to be super nice to me but cussing at me under there breath, calling my name for a seat, taking my card to lock up the seat then saying there is a problem(ie a regular moved into that table for better "luck") these are some issues that i can tell you would write a 40 page "rant" about..and since i can tell you are a binions player for the history of the game(read i been playing looong before the hold em boom) im sure you could relate to this "backstory" so....pardo your rant

Stan,
Can you explain something for me?
Got a mailer the other day that says
"Your place is ours. Free room just for you Sunday - Friday 2 nights per week March 1st - April 30, 2010"

Sweet, so I log into my account online and for those months it lists Sunday-Thursday as comped on the calendar but lists Every friday at $79. I could understand if some were listed at 79 and some as comped if there were special weekends or something, but every single friday says 79.

Any reason why mailer says SUn-Friday but calendar has 79 for friday? I called customer service and they said, it could mean that comp rates were all booked already and that they could only give me sun-thursday. I got the mailer 2 days ago. What gives?

I'll be up Monday the 15th through Wednesday the 17th. I'll be staying at the Showboat the entire time (including playing the tourneys there), but want to hit the Borgata to check it out and play the 11am the Wednesday on my way out of town.

Other than playing the tourneys I'll probably also just be killing time on pennies too, since I won't be taking too terribly much with me this trip. That, and I don't like putting much money into a game that is 100% luck and has a -EV, just a time killer for me

Heh yea I hear ya pennies are a solid way to just kill some time. Let me know for certain if your going down/want to play that Wed 15k tourney and I'll let u know if I make it down there in time to play it or not.

because friday night = saturday departure, and therefore does not qualify for Sunday-Friday promotions. its a little confusing, since Sunday = check-in day, and Friday = check-out day.

Glad you received the offer. I have said countless times on this thread that the online offer could show up incorrect and to call customer care to make your reservations. See you on Fridays!

Friday is part of the offer. Sometimes the online offer is not correct. Once again if you offer says Sun-Thu, please call customer care to make the reservation.

Stan, has Borgata always had the Spring Open? I cannot make that event either as I will be graduating at the end of April. I can't wait to become an actual reg at Borgata, rather than just going during my breaks.

I am watching the Poker Open ME on tv right now. Most tournament directions get a little face time during play or a small interview, so I am hoping I see you or TAB!

There's an expectation that Borgata does things right.

If the online offers are sometimes not correct, and, if the online comps are sometimes not correct, are these issues being worked on so that things are as they should be?

Sorry to put you on the spot in front of the 2+2 world, Stan. But I know that you're the guy who can handle the tough questions.

Worst snow is to be north and west jersey. The later you leave the better you might be, actually. Just a matter of waking up at 9am and looking out the window.

I have a flight tomorrow at 5pm.. I got a lot more at stake than you!

Pardo,

The problem is that once we cancel and let the staff know not to come in, it's hard to change it on the fly. Not to mention the CCC and the other departments we have to inform of the cancellations (cage,Security, etc.)
