Agree. Especially while WSOP should be drawing a lot of regulars out West.

Jeff, I smell Pai Gow lessons in 6 days.

thanks guys, despite not getting a lot of people, the $3k hu tournament was fun and i'll hopefully be back for future ones. the double elimination part definitely made it more complicated, but i think it made the tournament much better.

not sure how many in here will care, but I'm psyched:

BORGATA HOTEL CASINO & SPA ANNOUNCE RESIDENCY WITH THE ROOTS

Exclusive Performances Elevate Atlantic City’s Premier Entertainment & Nightlife Destination

ATLANTIC CITY, NJ (June 23, 2009) – The Legendary Roots Crew – most recently known for their tenure as the house band for Late Night with Jimmy Fallon – has announced their residency at Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa, Atlantic City’s foremost entertainment destination. Beginning Friday, July 24th, the Grammy-award winning Roots are set to launch an exclusive series of shows at Borgata’s intimate Music Box theater, each show featuring a special musical guest. Following each performance, the band will host an official Borgata Nightlife afterparty, the first to be held at MIXX, with music by guest DJ and Roots’ member, Questlove.

“As Philly natives, we have been to Borgata before and know its the leader in the Atlantic City nightlife scene,” said Questlove. “We couldn’t be more excited to make Borgata our new home,”

“We’ve long looked at artists that we felt would be a natural fit for a residency at our 1,000-seat Music Box theater, but also had the unique ability to transcend into our nightlife offering and represent the multi-dimensional entertainment experience Borgata offers,” said Joe Lupo, Sr. Vice President for Borgata. “The Roots are a special band that unequivocally embody these qualities-- with a longstanding, highly successful career and deep roots in this region --and we could not be more pleased to welcome them to their exclusive home in Atlantic City.”

THE ROOTS are enjoying their greatest critical and commercial success of their already-stellar 15-year career. The band recently held their annual ROOTS PICNIC in Philadelphia selling out the 7,000-capacity FESTIVAL PIER and garnering rave reviews from Rolling Stone, Blender and many others. Famed for beginning with a jazzy, eclectic approach to hip hop and their use of live instrumentals, The Roots have generated a great deal of critical acclaim and influenced numerous rap and R&B acts since their debut album in 1993.

Tickets for the first performance on Friday, July 24th, are priced at $49.50 and will go on sale this Saturday, June 27th at 10 am. The performance at The Music Box will start at 10pm. Tickets for concert can be purchased by calling 866. 900.4TIX or visiting theborgata.com. The MIXX event will start at 11pm (nightclub opens at 10pm) and cover charge is $10.

Hey guys,

I'm lookin' to stay in the Borgata for a poker weekend. Are there any special hoops I need to jump through in order to get the poker room rate, and what is that rate nowadays? A while back, a friend called and asked for the poker room rate, and a person at the desk told him that that rate isn't available on his account.

Thanks,

Brass

Heading out tomorrow after dropping the kids at a friend's house (they don't know what they're in for!). Looking forward to seeing some faces to go with the names.

Just wanted to say GL to the 2p2 community in tomorrow's ME. Hopefully I won't be seeing you in Monday's last chance tourney (not only will that mean you've busted out, but some of you are just too damn good!)

I'll be most likely 2/5-ing it Sunday night/Monday morning or maybe at that wacky 4/8 HOSE if it's running on a Sunday night.

See y'all tomorrow!

Matt

Used to play semi-frequently at Borgata, been a while since I've been out east. Never had much problem getting poker rate Sun-Thurs and sometimes managed to snag it on weekends. How likely is it that I'll be able to get the rate on a weekend in mid-July? If not the straight poker rate, is there any middle ground between that rate and the rack rate?

Will be playing 10/20 LHE; 2/5 NLHE all weekend, probably 20-24 hours of table time between Friday PM and Sunday afternoon.

Thanks.

*drool* 3 40/80?

Actually it kindof sucks. I played all night Thursday night and we had a full game most of the time. Finding shorthanded games late at night is getting hard lol

Hey I had a blast on Thursday and Friday playing at the Borg. My question is that when I got home I saw my red card offers included a room offer about calling in for a poker room rate. What exactly are the requirements and what is the rate?

I'm planning on staying this Wednesday and possibly Thursday.

Is the 10/20 Omaha game hurting the two-way game ?
Has there been any thought about having two separate Omaha & stud games ?

We are just seconds away from the start of the $3000 Main Event. We now have 351 entries with a line at the cage window. We are hoping to have 400 runners by the end of level 2. Good luck to all that are playing. And now the cards are in the air and we are off.

Hi Stan,

Had a blast this weekend, your people are fantastic and keep everything running incredibly smoothly. Played mostly $40-80 through the night & ended with the $1-2PLO game at 6:30am trying bust out my friend... Special thanks to John for his patience and help racking my chips during table changes after a long day of drinking!
