Sure, easy for you to say. I wouldn't have trouble with nickels and dimes if everything I touched turned to gold either!

You can get a players card from the clerk at the same desk where you put your name on the game list.

The boardwalk is not really within a reasonable and safe distance from the Borgata, but it is a very short drive.

There was never an uncapped 1/2 game at the Borgata, and I have never seen one in AC.
Thanks.

I heard about the uncapped game and mistakenly thought it was there, no big deal just thought that would be sweet to sit in with 1000 depending on stacks.

Thanks again

Currently back on the free wifi in an Opus suite on the 35th floor. It was not working last night, but now seems to be as of an hour ago.

Enjoy your nice little Foxwoods. They are billions in debt with no way out, business is decreasing, and they will likely close soon. See ya at the tables!

Midas how is the Borgata gonna experience a drop in the coming months? You think revel will take away their summer business? No chance. While some regs and ppl will be curious about Revel the Borgata will be plenty busy come summer. I highly doubt they will have a drop. If they do I doubt it will be beyond a month.

This. You better enjoy all the largesse while it lasts. Comped rooms for poker players is a temporary phenomenon. If you want it to continue, you better not be surfin in your room. You better be putting in double digit hours per room-day to keep this thing going. And I would also drop some Benjamins outside the poker room now and then with winnings, if you have any. This is the golden age. Don't eff it up.

I love the Borgata's chips! Most other casinos' chips get dirty and disgusting very quickly. It would be nice to be able to buy the button, but you can't do that anywhere in AC, it is a gaming regulation issue.

I was referring to the rest of the casino not the poker room. The Borgata poker room will always be the #1 room in AC.

Borgata's chips are advanced skill level chips. If they fall into your cup holder, you're touching them too hard.

Yeah i heard about the article and all that but they wont close ne time soon.. even if, thers mohegan next door and hopefully soon a new casino in mass.

Idk borgata is def nice and clean and the plays been pretty soft so im enjoying myself.

And i realized the table slopes in towards the player a few inches in front of the rail, once i figured that out my chips stopped falling over lol.

Was at the Borgata this week. Had a cold and a massive headache so I decided to play the nightly donkament where I observed the following hand:

Middle aged Hispanic guy bets 5000 into 3000 on river. Hipster girl thinks for a min then goes all in for 125 more. Guy folds. I'm the only one who notices this. Wp sir

Thinking of playing more live tourneys ...

Sounds like classic case of collusion/chip-dump to me.
