Would have been super sick if the dude rivered a K for a ~50k one outer at a 2/5 game.

And an even better turn, Full house vs quads vs Royal.

Really enjoyed the Summer Poker Open.

Anyone know when the next "event" is at Borgata? (Deep Stack event or Series)

Look for a deep stack in early August. The Borgata Poker Open (WPT) is Sept 9 - 24.

Stan

If the fourth king would have landed on the river the, according to our rules, the four 10's would have only received a players share instead of the 40%. The four kings would have taken over as the Bad Beat hand and received the 40%.

I see I missed the 4-8 HOSE game today! I got there a little before 8, but I see it ran all afternoon and had already broken by 8. Ah well, hopefully tomorrow!

Hah, no kidding. That river K would be the ultimate bad beat.

It must be the July 4th weekend because the fireworks have already started. The second BBJP has hit today at the Borgata. This one is good for $83,210. Quad 6's and a 8 high straight flush. Table 57, 2-5 NL

Stan

They were smart to not talk about it:

8. Any discussion of the prize during the playing of the hand may void qualification for the Bad Beat Jackpot. If any player, whether directly or indirectly involved in the hand, passes information or instructs another on how to act or reveals his/her hand to other players, the Bad Beat Jackpot will be disqualified.

Stan,

Have you guys figured out the schedule of events yet for the WPT in september?

we are very close.

The $500K deep stack is August 2-5

Stan

Played against the holder of the royal flush later that evening on a different table. He and another guy at my table explained how he had been knocked out of the tournament on his first hand and went to play 2-5NL because he couldn't get a seat right away at 5-10NL. You might say his afternoon turned around quickly.

Any info on the buy-in(s)? I didn't see anything on the site yet. Headed down in a few hours btw. See you then.

$1500 + $150 with two stating days (Sun and Mon)

The Poker Gods looked down upon my poor, miserable (and losing bad for the session) weak-tight playin' butt last night and handed me a gift aka the BAD BEAT JACKPOT !!

Was playing 2/5nl at table #57 last night when the jackpot hit for the 2nd time in one day (first time that it's hit 2x in the same day). Jackpot stood at $83,210-- winner of the jackpot (quad 6's) took $33k, winner of the hand w/ diamond straight flush took $16k, rest of table (me + 6 others) $4,765 each.

SHIP IT !!!!

Thanks Borgata !!

Congrats. Being up 4 or 5 grand seems like a pretty good day to me.

10% is a seriously high fee, or vig as some call it.

That is actaully pretty good for a live tourney where most of them can be higher then 20%.

Rude and odd/funny floor people last night. + "i'm the worst ****ing player ever"

Odd/funny
Don't remember her name, but she was working the plo, two way game area. I ask for one of the tv's to be changed to Nascar (yes, I'm a fan). She responds. I'm not putting that hick stuff on my tv's, no way. Then she continued to make fun of me about it. Seemed a little out of place for a floor to act that way, but I didn't mind it. 8 tv's ended up changing to Nascar a few mins later which was cool.

Rude (very rude)
There was a two-way game running. The two-way players decided to change the game to omaha h/l only, $10/$20. Then a long list was created for this game, so they called a must move omaha h/l $10/$20 game. And also called this same table for a $10/$20 two-way game. 7 players showed up, and we all wanted to play two-way. One of the floors came over and said we CANNOT play two-way, as it would conflict with the Omaha game. All of the players were arguing that we have 7 willing two-way players, why not let both a two-way and omaha h/l game run at the same time? He said, stud8 only, or omaha h/l only. One of the players started racking up due to the rudeness of the floor, but I ended up talking everyone into $10/$20 Stud8. He was being very adamant about having it his way, or no way. Just last week, they were running both a two-way and omaha h/l.

"I'm the worst ****ing player ever":
Villian (black lady) and me playing $15-30-45 two way at the Taj. I'm on a low draw, with multiple people in the hand. I make my low on 6th, and catch trips on 7th. I bet out $45, she calls with her aces up, and I show 3 4's to scoop a nice pot. She gets mad, grabs her chips, and walks out. Hmmm, didn't mean to make her leave, just got lucky on the river. 4 hours later, I'm back at the Borg, in the Stud8 game. Villain is now sitting to my right. 3 players in the hand (only me going low), I make 4 to a low on 4th, and call a bet on 5th when I catch a pair of 2's with 4 to a low draw. She checks 6th street, as do I (haven't hit yet). On 7th, I catch another 2. She bets out with her aces up. I call and turn over the rivered 2 to again river her for the scooped pot. She goes ballistic, saying, "OMG, you did that to me again, you're the worst ****ing player ever" as she picks up her chips and leaves the table.

But all in all, was a fun day in AC.

The Borgata Fireworks show was great.
