FYI: That "25-50 PLO" game was never 25-50. It flip-flopped between 25-25 PLO/25-25 NL, and then it became just 25-25 NL, then it went back to being half and half.

I hate to be a jerk. Hahah!

A)
x = (16)(3)
x = $48

B)
x = (30)(3)
x = 90

C)
x = ((16)(3)) + ((14)(2))
x = 48 + 28
x = 76

I accept sponsored freerolls to any 2011 Borgata Winter Poker Open event as "payment" in return of offering my Algebra tutoring services. ;-)

Stan,

Since implementing the new clock in - clock out procedures (random during the day instead rolling over once at 6am) have you guys noticed a downtick in "hours played" by the average player?

I'm just curious how many people were guilty of gaming the system (clocking into the 40 and then going to play the 20, leaving the casino, etc).

Thanks,
Blindspeaks

If Stan sees a difference and believes that this has been happening, I'm not interested in knowing about it. I would not be surprised if it has/has not been happening. It's really none of my business. It's more of a concern of the people who run the business at Borgata.

And I am.

It's just a quesiton; if Stan doesn't want to answer he can simply ignore it.

Option 3 is he could flame me - but since you took that one already...

Depends on the game and its comp rake. You need $1,000 in comps.

For example:
- You need to play 500 hours in $2-5 NLHE. 500 hours = ($1000 comps / $2 comps per hour)

- You need to play more than 666 hours in $1-2 NLHE. ~666.67 hours = $1000 comps / $1.50 comps per hour)

- You need to play 1000 hours in $1-2 PLO. 1,000 hours = ($1000 comps / $1 comp per hour)

One year starting on the first date or anniversary date you first got your MyBorgata Red Card. For peeps renewing the Black Card, it is one year starting on the anniversary date when a player was upgraded.

Just curious.
