Guess I'm mistaken, then.

Nice to see reports that a pink game is still going on sometimes. It was mentioned in the Harrah's thread that the regular pink OE game moved back there.

Pretty cool spot, really. It is literally a long, narrow bar. Great place to catch a game as there are a ton of TVs. Borgata has needed something like this for a while.

Caught the USA women's comeback vs Brazil Sunday. I will likely be watching the WWC Final there this weekend.

I have to post the reason why Borgata is the best poker room in AC. I haven't played there in years, one PM to Stan, and he got me a comped room for 2 nights, within 2 hours of when I PM'd him.
Stan, and Borgata, making good business decisions, showing they care about poker players, especially when Harrahs is screwing poker players more every day.
Spread the word - Stan is the best!

I've never been to Borgata and I'm planning on filling in the 20 hours of play this weekend to get the entry to the 15k freeroll. How soft are the 1/2 NL games comparing to other casinos on the boardwalk?

Harrah's did a few things: they lowered the number of tier points per hour for poker, started to charge admission for the diamond lounge, and made comped rooms much harder to come by. It seems almost as if they're looking to get rid of their regular poker players

Just to bring up a dead topic:

Some dude just walked into the bathroom with a lit cigarette in his mouth. Thomson said: "Hey, no smoking in here." The guy doesn't say a word and puts his cigarette out.

Thomson FTW.

This. Borgata is in a class of its own. The pizza, as always, was a nice touch this past weekend. It's the little things.

Anyone have an update on timing of room "enhancements" ? Looking forward to lowered/additional TVs, etc.

I saw The Long bar being constructed about a month ago during the summer open. Looked cool was just the bar top installed, really is long. I will be down there tomorrow night for a drink or two, got tickets to the comedy show Thursday and Adam Carolla on Saturday.

Possibly escaping good players?
