Got back late last night from a nice two day trip to the Borg, played mostly 10/20 OE but I wish I had been in that HOSE game ffs! Met Stan which was a delight as were the facilities. Had one issue that I will PM Stan about but otherwise a great trip. <3 Borg

Stan-

Are 10/20 LHE and 2/5 PLO played in the high limit section or main area? Thanks

10-20 LHE high limit room mid week and in the main room on Friday and Saturday. The 2-5 PLO is played in the main room next to the 10-20 LHE near the isle so that it gets a lot of looks.

The following data is taken from the 94 live game reports that Stan has posted in this thread. For now I have limited it to just the LHE and NLHE games, but I'll post some stuff on the less regular games later this week. Thanks for the reports, Stan!



Keep in mind that some games tend to be mutually exclusive. For example, there will never be an 80-160 game when there is a 100-200 game, so you can add the game frequency of those two together. Same goes for the big no limit games.

Thanks for doing this, it is very interesting. I apologize for thanking you by suggesting more work, but because of problems with the scale, it might be good to report just as a table instead of a bar chart.

For occasional Borgata LHE players, note that while the data show a bit less 40/80 activity on Sunday than Saturday, the Sunday game is consistently better, so I suggest giving it a try.

No problem, I'll post it when I get into work tomorrow.

Stan:

Thanks for the quick reply. Hope you have more of the bigger survivor satellites (Maybe you could have a couple of $1000 survivor satellites). They are great and everyone loves them.

I am surprised to see that the 10/20 NL games seems to have slipped in popularity. Last year we used to have 2 or 3 going on a Saturday night. Now, it looks like 10/25 NL has retaken its place as the next game up from 5/10 NL.

Thoughts?

First off, Spaceman's chart doesn't take into account time of day. If Stan posts a few morning blips, and then doesn't post in the evening, then the numbers will look low.

The regs prefer 10/25NL because of the deeper play. The structure blocks out short stacks.

Average Time of Day:

Monday - 5:04 PM
Tuesday - 8:36 AM (This time is misleading because out of the 6 data points for Tuesday, 3 were from just after midnight on Monday, and 3 were from the afternoon/evening)
Wednesday - 5:08 PM
Thursday - 5:13 PM
Friday - 6:48 PM
Saturday - 1:24 PM
Sunday - 3:44 PM (Saturday and Sunday are a little early because there are several reports from after midnight on Friday and Saturday night)

Which is another way in which things could easily get skewed. 12:01AM technically might be Sunday morning, but it is 100% Saturday night in a poker room.

There have only been 2 10/20 NL tables running at the same time in 5 of the 94 reports. 2 of these were on the same Friday, and the other 3 were on consecutive days -- the Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of the 500K Guarantee tournament.

Across all reports, the average number of 10/20 NL, 10/25 NL and 25/50 NL tables combined is 1.29.

I am all about a 4/8 HOSE game on Saturday (2pm). Perfer the 4 game rotation but will settle for HOE or just E (with or without kill for O is fine). Want some practice for the 1k HOSE event. How many others are in?

I think we might just have a must move game this week.

Count me in. I'm sorry I missed the game last week, sounded like fun. This week I'll be there for 4/8 HOSE or 4/8 Stud hi/lo.

Sounds like the HOSE game is a better idea since it's easier to keep going with the flop games in the mix? Either way I'll be there.

Will be there for the 4/8 game this weekend. Last 2 weekend i couldn't make it, had to help my brother move one weekend, and this past weekend i was at foxwoods. sorry stan, had a wedding in boston on sunday and it made sense to stop at the woods for a few days on the way .

One thing i will say that i really liked at foxwoods was the optional self signup for games. I can slide my player's card in, look at all games available and select all the ones i want without sitting with a craned neck while your game board scrolls and holding up the line. You guys should get this at the B

Speaking of the board, is there anyway to get that thing to scroll a little faster?

oooh well we had a nice time, but even though he really liked the swipe for waiting list option... there were only a few things that we preferred....

if foxwoods vs. borgata went 10 rounds.... borgata would win 8 of then.

will probably play the 4/8 game this weekend as well!!!!! weeeeeeeeeee

what time is this starting?
