Encore Boston Harbor Casino (Everett, MA) - FAQ in OP - Page 93 - Venues & Communities -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

The price of free for the drinks is perfect and it matches up with quite a few casinos who have been installing self serve stations of coffee, soda, water, etc... this one looks pretty nice. Not just the price point but the speed of grabbing a burrito/bowl/tacos helps.

I think it’s fair to say that this tournament is a massive success. 379 on day 1 $227,400

They ended with 386. So a little over 200k in the prizepool already today

Really hoping the success of this tourney will enable them to run some tournament series with mid size buy-ins, good structures, and good guarantees

What time did they call it a night? I plan on playing the Saturday flight, just curious on what my schedule is going to look like.

It was around 9:30, I was playing the satellite so not sure if the exact time. I believe they will play down to 12% each day. So whomever makes day 2 is in the money. Everyone seemed to think Saturday would have 600-700 people, so could go longer.

Today’s count is 396.

I tried the cantina yesterday. Got the tacos with barbacoa. They were pretty good. You get three. I was satisfied after eating but I don’t think a man would be. Traditional with corn tortillas. The tortillas were under cooked so they were a bit hard. The salsa has a kick.

Yeah very reasonable. I had a barbacoa burrito today. It was very good.

Anyone else hear about a tournament series they are having in February? Heard people talking about it yesterday but couldn’t find anything about it(admittedly I didn’t look too hard)

I posted a pic of the menu above on page 92 for the Encore Cantina. My bad luck that the few times I wanted to try it there was a small line of 3-4 people but I've walked by many times already w/o anyone in line.

The milk tea/coffee/hot water with lemon is quite nice and they don't operate on tips and when I gave her $1 for 2 drinks she was quite surprised.

A little under 800 for both days so far I would say it is quite a success and they gave away 46 seats with 276 entries in the satellite yesterday ($100 + $20 1 in 6 got a seat).

Did they give you any comp points for registering the $600 tourney?

Seems like a pretty big success, hopefully bodes well for future higher buy in events.

I didn't get any comp points for any of the MTTs I've entered, but the tracking on my Red Card may be way off, too

Anyone know how the tiers work? I see what the benefits are for each tier, but how many points get you to each tier?

Anyone know any details about the 150/300 mix game that seems to have been going pretty frequently? Is there a day it usually runs? Is it always 150/300? Games in the mix? If it's an almost certainty to be running certain days it'll help to plan a trip around it. Thanks.
