I am going to be at foxwoods thanksgiving week has there been any 10-20 action? If not has the 5-10 game been good?

The schedule is all sorts of messed up for it

I actually like it. Now I don't have to take time off work if I play the 560.

The events are all mixed up and I don't like the added stuff it now makes me go from a Wed through Saturday and add the events buyin goes all over the place instead of increase like normal and out of order

That's true, and I agree that it's a bad change. I just like that the 560 is falling on a weekend for once, since that's the only one I ever play.

I just find the whole situation shady and ****ed up. The first floor guy was more than happy to start the list. Within an hour or so, the list had 5 names on it and then POOF, its gone.
Then the **** asian dude wont start another list????? Whats that about?

Actually, I'm not sure anymore. I was just looking on the website at the Gold/Platinum perks. It says nothing about comped rooms for Gold, and Platinum only gets Sun-Thurs (Fri/Sat are just discounted). It might be changing come January. I'll ask my host, because I want to get to the bottom of this myself.

I had quite a interesting trip to foxwoods last weekend...

got to meet latimer (real nice guy) who inspired me to get myself qualified for a gold card,

got food poisoning from something, prob my dinner... and ended up getting sick in the foxwoods bathrooms on my way out to my car (first time throwing up in a casino, lol)

Then I got stuck in traffic for around an hour when 95 north was closed because of a drunk driving multi-car crash, luckily everyone was ok.

Def the most unique visit to foxwoods I've ever had.

Yeah I don't think comped rooms during the week have anything to do with the color of the card. I get Sun-Thurs comped (when I call in advance) with the basic Dream Card.

I think it has more to do with the frequency that you play poker at FW.

I am curious about the benefits of the gold card...

I've never tried to get a comped room unless they were offered to me, what exactly do you say to them when you call in?

I get mailers every month from FW that tell me I get a certain number of points (currently 30) once a week when I check in at the Dream Rewards desk and that I get free rooms on most if not all Sun-Thurs in the given month.

So when I call I ask if they have any complimentary rooms for me. But you can mention that a bunch of your friends get this mailer and you are hoping that you qualify for a free room too... I should mention that they have a very limited number of these weekday complimentary rooms and I often have to pay $29 or more for my free room. And not once have these rooms told me how good looking or smart I am.

I'm not sure why I get this mailer. It may be because I play a bit (over 800 hrs per year) but it may also be that I respond to their e-mail surveys every time they send me one. I know some old time regulars in the 20/40 LHE game who play at least twice as much as I do if not more - who do not get these mailers...

But I was also surprised about two years ago when I called in for a room and gave them my Dream card # and they gave me a great rate ($39 for a Friday night room at Two Trees). I think if you call far enough in advance they will give you much better rates. My guess is that 6 weeks to two months in advance should do the trick. Now the best Friday rate I get is $49 and I have booked rooms in May of 2011...
