especially if there's a nonzero chance you'd play a tournament or SNG, both of which require it.

What is the play like in the $1-2 PLO game anyway? I like playing about 80% of my hands...are there other idiots like me?

I feel like such a noob.

Stan is in the below video about 2 1/2 minutes into it. For those who have not been to Borgata, the video is a little introduction:

When I watched the game for a tiny, tiny sampling the game was 4 or 5 handed and it was 100% seeing the flop. PF raises were to $5 and got called all around.

Lol the key is to raise your drink and say all hail ruler of the east. Then you look like an obnoxious donk and the money pours in.

To everyone else, I'm writing this in my Borgata hotel room and I'll be hanging around the next couple days.

I'll be the kid carrying around a gallon bottle of water (Gotta hydrate!), feel free to say hi if you spot me.

I'm definitely in for sure. If you could get a 4/8 or 5/10 stud 8 game going regularly, I'd never go back to Taj. This is an awesome idea, it would be the only straight stud 8 game (not part of a 2-way) in AC. I would think you could get enough interest at Borgata on a weekend.

I'm guessing any Saturday or Sunday would be probably be the best time to try.

What were you thinking as far as antes and BI's ?

There is free wireless in the poker room. "Guest" is the name of the network, and no password is needed.

I say higher ante and force more $$ into pot, makes for a higher action game.
