If your numbers are correct, the 100 one is 20% juice, while the 250 one is 12.5% juice so it can't be the reason.

Nice graph on bbj's, Spaceman. Since it is Friday and the end of the series, I don't think it will be full in there but there will enough action to satisfy anyone.

you have a good point, money much better spent on the 2/5. however, i have noticed those 250 sit n go's go quite frequently on weekends.

played for about 10 hours yesterday from 8p-6a. was at the table right in front of the cage. quite a few funny things happened including a player getting into a dealer's face and calling him a schmuck. he left/got removed from the room but it was pretty funny at the time.

well, it is what it is. I hope Stan, and all poker rooms in general, are not discouraged in running these promotions in the future.

lol they locked the party thread? awesome. yeah see what you have to do is do what you do all other loser control freaks when it comes to this stuff, you smile at them, nod your head and say, yeah okay thats great, sweet forum, good rules yeah buddy, okay sir etc because you don't want to get banned and you want to be able to access the info on here and have fun sharing your opinions and organizing games and what not....then you taunt and make fun of them non stop behind their backs when they aren't around because well it's just too easy/fun to do and it's too hard not to

Describe "beatable", please?

I've played at the Borgata many times, though still wondering how it's beatable. (Then again I'm coming from a string of being "card dead" for the last seven or eight 2/5 NLHE sessions.)

Is it like...loose action? Lots of pre-flop raises? Calling player's unsuccessful bluffs? (If so, how often?)

Heading down to Borg today to play some 10/20 limit. I'm planning on having dinner at the old homestead. I'm assuming they take Comp $$. Does anyone know this for a fact?

All Borgata owned restaurants, except those at The Cafeteria, accept comp dollars $1 to $1. So if you have so many comp dollars...as in more than $100, treat yourself to an AWESOME steak and drinks. Just don't forget to tip your waiter.

I will be arriving at the Borgata on Wednesday around 8 and staying into Thursday, for absolutely no reason and not because of any "events." However, if a 2/4 LHE drunk game and/or a 4/8 HOSE game were to break out in this time frame, I would be very interested. Also, if any other 2+2 contributers happen to be there, purely by chance, I'd be interested in meeting them.

just finished my first session at the borg, playing 2/5 NL from 10pm-10am. hit my first royal flush... fun times. unfortunately only the 5/10 PLO game ran and it looked absolutely ridiculous as when I stopped by it was 3-handed... may try to visit the borgata again on sunday...

If any of you might happen to be there around the same time, I'd be happy to grab a beer and discuss things that don't have to do with this poker forum with you.

You may think it's a joke, but we take this stuff quite seriously. I suggest you read the thread at the top of this forum to get a better understanding of our new policies and why our decisions are made the way they have been made.
