In a show of support for our favorite room I finally got down to play the 11:30p Friday night...didn't last too long but did ok in cash so its all good.

I'm going to try to make this a weekly thing. I'll sleep when I'm dead!

I was pretty surprised at how slow the room looked for a Friday night.

AC is in the middle of a depression, so if I don't want to get to depressed about that, I step over the city line into Brigantine, and play at the Borgata.

It's never really that slow, I walked into the poker room 4:30 am Saturday before sunrise, and it looked fairly busy to me...

Have been semi consistently grinding 2/5 and 5/10 for awhile and have always thought the Borgata was the standard for poker rooms. Played in my first live MTT there Friday at noon (Chopped 3 handed for 7.7k :brag). Thought the tournament was really well run from start to finish. The floor wasn't tolerating the amount of time wasted by the idiots who love to waste 5 minutes of tournament clock making sure the bubble gets paid (live mtt rant).

Good job Borgata.

The Borgata is in a class of it's own.

Too bad I'll never go there again due to the places that have opened in philly. I'd recommend it hands down though.

The two times I did the Friday 6pm, they had about 115-130 people. The morning ones I believed got closer to around 195 runners but not positive.

Bad news:The gate in the parking garage descended prematurely, crashing down upon my new vehicle while I was exiting the other night.

Good news: The Borgata is right on it, faxing in my estimate right now to claims department.

Hey Stan --

I see you rolling out some stud things.

Stud Bad Beat - 100% Borgata Funded: http://www.theborgata.com/Main.cfm?C...7A794B6C5F759A

Also, stud freeroll tourneys over Halloween weekend: http://www.theborgata.com/Main.cfm?C...2BD54D173450AF

Anyone hit the stud bad beat yet? Any plans for more freeroll stud tourneys?
I am very curious on what turnout will be.
