so I got 50 free points on the dreamcard every week of june - I redeemed my first 50 this week, log on to Foxwoods, and my offers for 50 points every other week of June is gone. wtf?

The website gets glitchy. Don't worry.

That will teach you to redeem your offers.

As a side note, I am in the camp that says Foxwoods takes more than adequate care of its poker players. I remember the .5 pts an hour and 5 pts a week days. It wasn't all that long ago.

Also without maliscously trying to discredit Lattimers knowledge, I find it hard to believe the comp system is based on play when it comes to the poker room.

Was thinking the same exact thing

same structure as any of the regular dale tourneys

25-50
50-100
100-200
100-200 25
200-400 50
300-600 75
400-800 100
600-1200 150 the most hilarious jump
etc etc etc

Yeah hate that structure, same as the joke of a poker room down the road

This has probably been discussed in this thread but can someone please tell me the poker rooms comps for the various limit and no limit games.

TY

I have been playing poker a good 30-40 hours a week for the past 2 years now, and at 1am last week on a Wednesday I had to beg for a room that was get this...UNOCCUPIED! Why would they want me to go home, and not come back? If I drive home I am not coming back, if I stay over, I am guaranteed to sit at a table for another 8-10 hours at a table and pay the rake.

My friend was grinding 1-2 at Harrah's AC and he was getting free rooms just about every day and atleast one free meal a day

You can typically get 2 rooms per week from Mon-Wed if you run like $20 through a slot machine.

2 more rooms a week than you would ever get at Mohegan, guaranteed.

i hate to sound like a dick, but the people complaining are regulars who are in the room day in day out with or without offers. a bunch of other people who don't play a lot got a buncha room offers and showed up instead of staying at home. sounds like foxwoods is doing a good job of getting people into the room that aren't regs. it's good for the game, not good for the regs. this thread is becoming unbearable with the complaining. please continue talking about james woods, why the bad beat jackpot is unfair, and how awful your bad beats and slow rolls are. thanks and gnite.

edit - jerseys is the only reg not complaining. does that mean he's a freak and a very weird dude? or the man?

Forget that I like MS better than Foxwoods, if you are thinking AC then why not look at Turning Stone. I played there all last summer. I got comped rooms in the Lodge on weeknights I was mostly playing Limit 5-10 and Tournaments (but NL 2-5 for hours after the tournament happened.) I also got comped food. If you are looking for a good alternative to FW and are willing to drive the 3 or so hours Try TS. (as the weather improves, bring your golf clubs the courses are among the best around.

Can any 5-10 regulars tell me how the games are at foxwoods recently? Has it gotten significantly tougher since online ban?
I used to play 5-10 and 10-25 regularly at foxwoods, but have not been there in over a year and also have been on a hiatus from poker all together for almost 5 months. I am moving back East and thinking about getting back into the grind. Any input about the state of the games would be appreciated.

the games have gotten significantly tougher and it has become nearly impossible to beat the rake, with generally 6-8 of the seats being filled by quality online or live pros.

to any online grinders considering testing the waters in the 5-10 game i have one piece of advice: don't

Lol I'm horrible and won 7 out of ten. Never win at 1-2 or 2-5. Now it's all pros. Funny. Even though in ac there is ac there is an Asian guy worse than me that plays 5-10 and 20-40 for 5-10 the woods is the place if u are near ny. Like the crowd much better than ac it's more social.

Further proof that Foxwoods comp system does not make sense. A friend of mine who plays the same days that I play during the week, at the same limit(2/5) but does not play on the weekend as I usually do, does not play slots or any table games, received July rooms, Sun-Thurs.
WTF?!!!!!??!?!?!???!

Is it really that bad? When you say game is full of pros...is this mainly new players who came from online..or are you counting the old live regs as well?

1.5 points per hr or .75cents cash per hr for 1/2NL at Foxwoods. 2 points per hr at MS but no cash value. Must spend at the casino. Dont know for the other limits

in other words, Poker Players who get free rooms are also playing slots and craps etc....etc....etc.... I dont think any Poker Only Players really get much in comps here.

This made me laugh quite heartily.

You just summed up probably what the point of a thread is. Not sure if you know that this is a poker thread, and usually people are going to rant about something. Funny thing about words, is you don't have to read them.

lmao seriously... feel free to not read the thread if it bothers you so much

Still nothing for me either and we play roughly the same amount of hours. I've been keeping it on the down low lately as I'm seeking certification to ref HS Soccer. I should be back down for my final week of rooms during the last week of June. So frustrating. I'd love to hang out by the pool in July/August all summer.

I'm not going to give you (foxwoods) 30+ hours a week with out a comp'd room. Gas is too expensive to commute down there 4-5x a week.

last night in the 6'oclock tourney this happened:

blinds are 100/200/25 ante

6 limpers preflop

flop comes K Q 10 rainbow.

check,check, guy bets 500, next guy raises to 2000, folds back to the original bettor

at this point the dealer thought everyone folded and tokk the flop and flipped it and put it in the muck so it was indstinguishable and thats when the uproar started. the floor gets called over and we explain what happened and told him the flop but nobody could remember which suits were which cards with people throwing out different anwsers.

the solution the floor came up with was to put out a new flop with the bet and raise still standing

the raiser was very unhappy about this and nobody thought this was a fair resolution to the problem but before it went any further the original bettor mucked his cards just to end the issue easily.

what would be the correct resolution to the problem? because with action still out there a new flop is complletely unfair to the raiser in this situation, because with any different flop if the guy whose action it is to call/raise/fold can shove and 90% of the time the raiser is going to fold.

I'm not a floor and I def don't know all the detailed tourney rules but if it were up to me I'd reconstruct the pot so that everyone gets their blinds/antes back and re-deal the hand from scratch... also tell the dealer not to muck the board with action pending lol wtf
