What is the cheapest way to stay at foxwoods for a weekend? Hotels near by that are inexpensive? The poker rate for the tournaments coming up seemed a bit steep to me. Thanks.

the only place outside of property i've stayed besides bellisimo (fine IMO) and hilltop (De Worst) was the hilton garden in mystic/groton. Very nice IMO, but a little bit of a drive. Not cheap cheap, but was comparable to bellisimo on a weekend.

Can someone tell me why the standard is in bounty guarantee tourneys? For example, 182 registered does that count as 18200 to the prize pool or 36400 in a 200 super bounty? This is being asked in regards to today's 20k gtd super bounty as they only got 182.

If any of you are the people who choose to stick their nasty gum to under the poker tables - stop being so god damn lazy. Im sick of putting my knee into your gum when im trying to have a nice time at the poker table.

Bounties count towards guarantee. It's happened before

I only played it because I thought they wouldn't hit the guarantee thus creating an overlay. I learned what they do here but I am curious what they do at other casinos like in Vegas. It seems deceptive IMO.

No idea, don't think I've ever seen a bounty tourney with a guarantee outside of here

I'm looking for a place to go tomorrow and I realize I only eat at a few places (Usually a quick burger/sandwich before rushing back to the poker room)

Looking for a place to eat with a lady friend where the focus is more on drinking than eating. I have never been to Scorpion Bar. Pros/cons? Any other suggestions? Anything but Italian. If I eat Italian I'll want red wine and that will lead me into bed. (To sleep, not for anything fun )

TIA.

I have done this a few times and it was so fun. Went to Burke, had a drink and the pretzel crusted crabcake, went to Craftsteak, had an app and a drink, Alta Strada, a pizza and a drink. Was a leisurely, fun and drunken evening.

Agreed. In addition to those spots, you could do it at Juniors, High Rollers, Scorpion Bar, CPK, Cedar Steakhouse... all have bars and good apps. Lots of choices if you do this.

Pretzel crab cake is pretty good. A little awkward to eat since its pretzel sticks, but still solid.

Bummed the kung pau shrimp and beef tips app is gone. It was a nice small meal.

Still haven't felt fat enough to get the bacon app at burke's. Someday it'll happen. Anyone had it? Worth a bunch of wasted calories?
