I don't know why people complain about the 20bb min. There are very few players who buy in that small, and the ones that do usually rebuy 4-5 times. I love having the players at my table that buy in for 20bb.

Exactly. These short stackers ruin the game. Too bad Management does not either pay more attention to this situation or examine it more carefully. Does anyone know why Management will not at least raise the minimum to the same level as the other games?

Seems like every time I play 2/5 at Borgata the stacks are super deep w/ no shortstackers. . . Maybe it's because I play really late.

They have boxes behind the front registration desk that you can use without much hassle. The poker boxes (don't know where those are) seem to be more restrictive (i.e. require some history?)

Nice to see them bump the 40 up to 60 and have it make it through the night. Has 60 been going off on any kind of regular weekend basis?

They rarely go. I think they went a few times in the fall, but not recently. It can't hurt to start a list, though, as the room should be a bit busier in March than February.

I think I've seen 5/10 HOSE and 1/2 PLO/NLH go in the past.

$100,000 GUARANTEED SATURDAY- MARCH 12, 2011

$300 Buy-In + $40 Entry
15,000 Starting Chip Stack

Anyone playing this? There is one re-entry for this. If I play I don't intend on re-entering if I bust. Since it's guaranteed at 100k and all how many runners does anyone predict. It's got a better structure than similar events at the Circuit Events @ Caesars. What do you guys think? 200 runners or so? Maybe 150? Anyone playing?

How many people on a list are needed to call a game? If three people are willing to play will they start it? Do they do a reduced rake if 3 people start?

If you have a few people that are willing to play, and the have a spare dealer, they'll probably let you start the game. However, you'd probably have to ask the floor, since they wouldn't start the game short on its own.

I think there would be half-rake at 6 players or less. If the game is just starting up you may be able to convince the floor for further reductions until more players join.

No. This is the first time all year I've seen a straight hold'em 60 game.

See you there.
Had planned on playing the Senior Event at Caesars that day, but for a few dollars more, this tourney has almost double the starting chips and a much better structure.
Advantage: Borgata

Hey stan,

I noticed that as of the 11pm Monday update there was no 20 game. What happened? Did people go up into the 40 when that started back up?

Coming up for spring break and will be staying at the water club for St. Patty's day. Would love to get 1-2 plo going then.
