You need to be careful calling for QBERT players. You might get some guys in their forties looking to play the real QBERT from about thirty years ago:

Would love to get my table transfers more than 25% of the time without having to take care of them myself. this sounds like the best solution I have ever heard. I hope that it is implemented.

Table changes are simple to implement using the Bravo system. Say Player TPT wanted a table change to table 11 from table 2 (a $1-$2 table). At the top of the $1-$2 list, the floor can write: "TPT [2to11]." Now the table change is on the list and cannot be missed by any floor person. Once they see a seat open at table 11 on the computer, they'll see TPT wanted it and will announce "TPT your table change is ready." This solves all table change problems easily and effectively. The tools are all there; the training just needs to be done.

BooG690 for Borgata floor person? I'll work for a free hotel room and comp dollars.

I am always allowed 2 free weekday nights comped, but never have Satudays offered. Anyone on here get a Saturday comped before and if so how? Is there any way of pulling this off without being a highstakes blackjack player or something?

Short answer is no. I get free Saturday rooms in the summer if I average ~ 200 comp $ / day worth of play.
Big losses help with getting comp rooms, big wins hurt. I got 4 black cards at borgata, so I've verified the fact that a huge lifetime win does indeed hurt your comps.

Poker comps are pretty limited.

Your best bet to get saturdays comped is to play table games. Go count cards or something.

Stan or someone, could something be done about the blank pages? When using the Android app and going to the first unread post, I am instead taken to a blank page and must click back a few times. I'm guessing that the cause is the blank pages at the end of the thread.

This is a 2+2 issue. Basically deleted posts count towards the page count index. You could see if there is a thread about this in the "About the Forums" forum.

I don't have a black card and do get most Saturdays and pretty much any weekend through December comped when I log into the myborgata website and book a week or so in advance.

As far as I know you need 1000 points for a black card and once you have a black card you get free rooms most of the time including weekends.


I do play a bit of craps and blackjack but by no means am I high stakes. A majority of my play is poker.

I recently checked my status for a black card just out of curiosity. Over the last 12 months I have about 300 points from casino and 300 from Poker.

I've played 1-2 higher stakes craps sessions where I averaged $100 average bet for 1-2 hours.

1 Hour at 100 average bet at Blackjack/Craps works out to about 17 Comp points.

That was a hot table where I had bet 4 numbers at 25 each.

Also drunkenly one night lost 300 in the GIANT wheel of fortune machine!

Not sure if timing matters but I've been going consistently for 3-4 years averaging this much but never enough for a black card.

Since the PA casinos opened it has been much easier to get rooms including Saturday. During the summer most Fridays were free and most Saturdays were 99 bucks but sometimes free. Through December every saturday is free.

Good Luck!
