Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa (Atlantic City, NJ) -- FAQ in OP, updated 2021.08.16 - Page 501 - Venues & Communities -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Stan,

Any chance of making 5/10NL+ & 20/40LHE+ 9 handed max games, like in Vegas? How about ever having the ability to run it twice/3/4 times at the NL/PL games? Buy the button option? Is it a CCC issue? Could we, as players, petition/send emails to the CCC in regards to any of these issues?

Shame the 10-20 OE doesn't run anymore.

what is the difference between OE and O8? I thought they stood for the same thing?

OE is a mix game where the "E" refers to Stud/8 (hi-lo 8 or better)

fwiw, I preferred not playing the E part and was glad to see it drop. (And yet, I'd play HORSE)

Not really. The game is much better as 10/20 Omaha. Game stays full, half the players don't get up every half hour when the stud was dealt. Personally, I enjoyed playing stud but there wasn't much action when it was dealt 5 or 6 handed. On flip side the Borgata had been spreading stud at many different levels.

did you play in the PLO game last night? Did anyone? I think it's about time that I play the 10/20 O8 game again. I just have to make sure the game is full since last time i lost when the game was 5-6 handed.

Now that the Eagles game has been canceled, I wish I'd have planned ahead for this. I'm in King Of Prussia, Pa and fear it's too late.

Parking garage...not having to clean the car off....good food...chilling at the B for 48 hours (sleeping 8) and playing a nice mix of 1/2 , 2/5, 10/20 O8 and PLO for the other 40......ahhhhhh, one can dream.

but +1 to this. I still have Eagles tix so I'll be there Tues. I might look into coming down afterward and play the Wedns morning guarantee followed by 1/2 NL or the O8 game.

What day were you thinking about Alan?

To the peeps looking to chill with me and my co-worker, obviously we're both stranded and we canceled our reservations. However, I hope to look for some action Wednesday evening. So Pippen and ACDawg, want to get something going, like a PLO? I'll be arriving immediately after work. (6:30ish)

I want to get there and play the 11am guarantee so hopefully around 6pm we'll be chopping 4 handed and I'll be ready to play some PLO.

I'd be down for Wednesday, Chris. Assuming the snow clears up that is. I'll probably play the 120 and maybe the we can even get PLO off.

1. Does the Borgata 1-2 PLO game play with a 5$ bring-in?
2. Does the Borgata 10/20 LO8 game play with a kill (full or h/k)?
3. Answer regarding a boardwalk shuttle... is there such a thing?

1) Not sure
2) It has a half kill to 15-30
3) There are jitneys that run 24 hours between all the casinos (including from the marina where Borg is to the boardwalk).

Yes in a way. While the bring-in is not mandatory, most players (including myself) love and agree on it for obvious reasons. (Including, but not limited to, easy pot counting and pot sweetening.)

Nice. I didn't want to go into this week with any expectations of a weekday game running, but now I can. I may just have to drop by and try out this, what do you call it? P-L-O?
