They have fukkked this whole project up so badly that the rumor on the street is that the place is for sale for approximately $0.35 on the dollar... Maybe we get a 2+2 Go fund me going to raise the needed $700mil then we can buy the place and bring back poker in full swing... I'm guessing we could probably run the place better than current management!!

Then the pandemic hit, and now who knows what will happen.
Not saying the MGC has been smart or responsive, but it's kinda crazy to think some alternative timeline with a casino at SD would have turned out better for Boston area poker.
Encore poker room was the nuts and I hope we get something back 70% as good.

Excellent post dude!!!
This thing has been a cluster fukkk from the get go!!! One can only imagine how big the payoffs/bribes were to give it to Everett!!! It was a total abortion even before they were awarded the license... starting out with the whole land contamination from being a Monsanto chemical plant in its prior life to the whole shell game to hide that the real owners of the land who were criminals tied to organized crime.
I'm aware that there were two votes on Suffolk since the property straddled Revere and East Boston and that Eastie voted against the proposal initially but that was by no mean the death blow for Suffolk there were many work arounds to overcome Easties initial objection.
If you remember them cancelling weekend tournaments because more people showed up than they anticipated and they were pissed that the poker players took up all the spots in the garage, leaving no spots for the white haired slot players to light their social security checks on fire then it is imminently clear that they are using Covid as an excuse to gas poker permanently!!! Bottom line: Them parking spots are to valuable to let us low ballin' poker playin' curmudgeons occupy them.
The nitwit who approved the final decision for the layout and amenities they went with should be flipping burgers somewhere!! How do you spend $2+ BILLION dollars there and not have an indoor and/or outdoor pool, or a concert venue of any type? Or how do you offer no mid range food options or a food court? Almost every restaurant there will cost you over $100 per person to eat at!!! Who was the bufoon who decided on the number of parking spots they created would be sufficient? But no worries because they got Popeye there!!!
