Congrats!!

congrats beata I'm sure I will meet you sometime if you plan on going to foxwoods more than mohegan

I got to see the november 9 this afternoon w/ DMBfan before their press conference, that was pretty cool, I'll upload a pic later

first 3 rounds at the hard rock are on me.



beata, that's a restaurant inside the foxwoods resort casino.

I actually used the search thread and see that it takes 75 days and 500 hours of poker to earn a black card. Does anyone know if there is a minimum amount of time required for a session to count towards one of the 75 days?

Congrats Beata! Hope you run like a god your first session back.... or they just give you back your portion of the BBJ.

anyone playing any of the mega satellite's this Friday?

Im thinking about gambling it up in a $150

nope, just 75 different calender days averaging 500 hours or more. 500 hours in 75 days is 6.66666666667 hours per session. Working on mine this year as well.

Saw a few of the nov. 9 last night playn some pretty fat cash game as well as Mizrachi..... very disapointed in the turn out for day 1a.

What games were they playing

a dealer told me earlier that it was 10/25, he also said that there was a 40k+ pot / 3 way all in

congrats. was that you playing 2/5 with Kendrick Perkins?

was perk there playing 2/5? that would have been so much fun to play with him...ugh and wish i could have made it for the 10/25 game ;\ sucks being at school.

Nah I was jk in my post I have class mega early tomorrow but ill probably be there either Friday or next Tuesday.

Ya I just left there about a half hour ago and he was playing 2/5. Apparently he plays a lot there I heard tonight. Usually 5/10 from what people were saying.

On My way down for a couple of days. I'll be playing in the $120, $400 and then I'm hoping to satellite into the main ! Also, I was playing in the 10/20 O8 last weekend and I'm looking to get a Mix game going.... anyone up for 10/20 OE or 15/30 HORSE

Sweet, thanks.

Anyone have any info on safety deposit boxes? Are they in the poker room? How much are they?

yes, and 50 dollar deposit I believe

Ty, seems like a good idea to use it if you play there often.

i don't think i've been at a table in the last 2 or 3 months where that whole underage BBJ story wasn't brought up at some point- the person telling it always adds something on or gets some detail wrong then some1 else chimes in... Foxwoods Folk Lore now

Just being swiped into the system constitutes a day. There is no minimum required. I sometimes play through Saturday night into Sunday morning and then ask if they've started the new day from a system standpoint.

Congratulations! Hope to see you there.

Here now place is packed...theres a 75/150 SHOE GAME GOIN. Huge lists..

I haven't been to FW in almost a year, but I'll be going up overnight there in a couple weeks. Can someone tell me what the 1/2 or 2/5 games are like on a Thursday night (staying over into Friday). Last time I was there, my table (1/2) broke right around last call, and I'm not even sure if there was another 1/2 running when we broke. If I want to try to get a 4hr session in, would it be better to sit from like 7pm-11pm as opposed to finding a seat closer to 10 or 11pm?

from my experience 1/2 and 2/5 run basically all the time, I was there yesterday morning and the poker room was packed but it is mega stack time so maybe thats a bit unusual... regardless you are almost definitely going to find multiple 1/2's and at least 1 or 2 2/5's going on thursday night, hope that helps

Some sick chips bewing spewed around....caused for major ups and downs...bu endedup shipping 1600 at 2-5. Awesome action....wish i coukd stay till the end of the mega stacks.

On another note..with all the high stakes action...i didnt see any of the nov. Nine. Oh well...was able to use my points to get the wife an ipad for v-day

November 9 played that freeroll yesterday. They were all upstairs in the tourney area.

Place can be so frustrating sometimes midweek. It was pretty busy today. Was doing well at 1/2 til I got KK on the button vs the maniac who was chipping up playing any two cards. He was hitting two pair like you read about. Same guy cracked my AA with QJ after I made it 50 to go preflop after a raise and two calls. Luckily I didn't go crazy with it and didn't lose too much. Anyways, Had KK on the button he put me all in with AK of hearts. Flop comes QTJ all clubs turn 9 of clubs lol. River 5 spades. Oh well.

I had a great trip though. I was there for four days and ended up losing a tiny bit after hotel and everything. Felt like I def should have made more money but it's all good. Lot of team players at that place midweek imo. I will never play 1/2 on a Monday ever again.

Can't wait to go back

Wow. Room was BUSY last night. Played from 5-9, went to dinner at Alta Strada(good, not great, nice portions, tiramisu YUMMY) went back to play from 12-3. Made a nice $2100 which eased the sting of paying for the room

Hope that it stays busy through the weekend.

Dealers were AWFUL last night. Lots of new dealers that had to call the floor constantly for trivial bs. One dealer was so slow and kept dealing people out that were sitting right next to him.
