Encore Boston Harbor Casino (Everett, MA) - FAQ in OP - Page 119 - Venues & Communities -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Back to driving 1-1h30 minutes to play... I did that many years but I'll pass this time.
Twin smells like smoke and have little variants
Chasers is nicely ran but I can't stand most of the crowd (a lot of the most miserable MA regs I ever saw)
Foxwoods is too far and NIT city

I guess I won't be playing poker for a while. Crazy how EBH brought great poker (variants, tournaments, nicely ran, beautiful room) and in a few months it was all stripped away (removing the tournaments before covid, then covid hits)

Ya’ll are nuts. Poker rooms in the area won’t open for at least 4-6 months.
Encore is making use of the space to make $$ for the time being.
Ya’ll hear about this pandemic thing going on?

um they said that about CT casinos opening at all and they've been open for almost 2 months now. they will do as they please and when CT enters p3 I would expect poker to follow suit. seems like they're throwing the state a bone w/r/t poker atm

and very odd you say "in the area" when all 4? NH rooms have been open and killing it...

It’s a done deal in that’s it’s done, cooked, not happening (as part of the current bill) per news today.

No craps or roulette. They mention poker being 4 handed but not at this time either

I heard through the Poker grapevine that a PGA golfer tipped over $400k at Encore Boston a couple of weeks ago and I'm wondering if anyone knows who it is?

Damn... I shoulda learned to hit a ball with a stick way better at some point. I don't follow the sport, but I'll guess it's whichever one is going through a messy divorce.

I'd bet on DJ after cashing the check for the win at tpc Boston at a cool $1.7m. Figuring he's going to follow it up with a Fed ex top 3 finish practically ensuring another $4m min but he'll probably win it for $15m. $400k for him is nothing. This is pure speculation.

Honestly don't remember the dealer's name, but I wouldn't tell you if I did!
