Yeah, staying for a few days, at least from Thursday to Sunday.

I guess the best plan would be to leave Thursday morning and come back early Sunday afternoon or in the late evening. I was also thinking of coming down Wednesday night, but it sounds like that's the worst day to travel?

I could try to stay an extra night, but I'd want to get back by 11AM Monday. I wonder if traffic would be bad if I left at 7AM Monday, or would I run into all the commuters trying to get into Manhattan?

Depends on whose around...

5/10 will always run (at nights i mean)

But 10/25 is more likely to run on weekends, and later during the week as well

Usually you can make a list of interest and drum up some interest from some of the 5/10 players.

Stan / Tab,

Is there a reason that you cancelled the 20K gnty on Friday the 26th ?

I would have thought that it would get a good turnout b/c of the holiday. I was planning on playing.....

We cancelled the evening tournament. The 12pm (noon) is still on. Black Friday is the busiest Friday of the year. We will not have enough tables available at night to run the tournament. The 12pm tournament should have a good showing.

Hey stan,

Coming down next thursday looking to stay through the weekend. typically play 1/2, 2/5 nl and hopefully some plo. Was wondering what could be done about the poker rate assuming i wanted to stay through the weekend.

Thanks

Thanks to Stan for the rate Saturday night. Would like to also thank the staff. On Sunday they had three tournaments running at one time (four actually after the Survivor started) and they did a great job.

Oh, and the Jets are NOT over rated (not sure if the one person who would get this is even a member here, but WTH.).

Hi,

I am new to this thread. I am coming into town w/e of Dec 11th, and looking for a PLO game - 5/10 would be great but anything will do. Does anyone know if there is a regular game in AC anywhere? Usually the borg seems to have good action, but i've never played a live PLO game there.

Thanks much everyone

I'm currently in the Borgata poker room and have been for two days and I'm beginning to think that Stan is a mythical figure like Paul Bunyon or something.

been looking for him for two days so I could thank the man for his help and hospitality.

I think if you left by 5:30 you should not have any many issues until you get to tunnel. I have found that a Sunday departure is best after 9pm.

No, borgata is only place that runs PLO in AC. If there is a tournament series going on, then other casinos MAY have a game, but not likely. The game will most likely be 1/2 but stacks are usually pretty deep (100-500 bi)

Just ask for a floor for Stan and if he is there, but he will most likely come out and talk to you in a very friendly manner.

Don't know about PLO action but Harrah's AC is running a WSOP Circuit Event Dec. 4-Dec. 22nd.

I was there for the first time. The room was nice and everyone was friendly. I was wondering what the comp rates are and also one of the players told me that if you play 20/40 you will be able to get a black label card, is this true?
Thanks in advance.
