i hope not
but the 10/20 seems to going the way of the dinosaur
the 8-16 has been attracting interest lists frequently
they called the 10/20 3 times yesterday the game went ever so briefly then busted never to reassemble

The 10/20 game has been slowly dying. A couple of weeks ago on a Friday, the game broke by 8:00pm and never got going again.

I would love to see the 8/16 go regularly, there might be enough interest to have 2 full games going on a Saturday night if there is no 10/20.

Nope, just a weekend 10/20 regular that wouldn't mind playing 8/16 instead if we could have a couple of full tables all night.

Just looked at my account and saw that I am getting free Two trees and $49 other properties for November! Also a bunch of random giveaways and chip promotions!

I'm not digging the new hotel reservations page online at all. It was nice to see all the available hotel rooms at once. Now you have to select each hotel individually.

I agree, very annoying move. Good thing I booked just before this switch! Looking at rates in the future will be very aggravating however.

Actually it seems the availability/rates page has only changed if you're not logged in. If logged in, it looks the same (the dates page is still different though).

Hm.. I played on Friday too, from about 6pm until about 2am. There has been some 2+2 talk at the table, which I try to avoid. Were you there Friday night?

I'm interested in coming to Foxwoods for 10/13-10/21. I won't have a car. As far as I can tell, getting a room at the casino would be >$1k, since they are out of the tournament rate rooms. I'm not entirely opposed to paying this, but would like to avoid it if reasonable.

What is the taxi situation like?
Do any of the non-Foxwoods hotels have shuttles?
Is there anyone I ought to talk to about getting a casino room for cheaper? I would play 5/10 - 10/25nl and am not a nit.

Thanks.

i was for about two - 2.5 hours
i was goofing with a player about reading his blog on 2+2
i have been trying to get better and he knows it so he busts on me we are friendly its just banter
i was in the 2 seat next to an indian dude who was really friendly and another good guy who lamented having his aces cracked all night but was on a run none the less i had just come from a 4-8 game where i lost 4 hands in a row to runner runner
i had a nice rush at the 10-20 while i was there good peolple good table

ECS is new to the Foxwoods run and doesn't even have the details on their website yet.

Dattco to MS had overnight weekend trips but Peter Pan to FW never did. Hopefully ECS runs the overnight route.

But yeah, I stopped driving 100 miles each way since I can't get cheap rooms so now I drive 200 miles and stay in AC or 150 miles to Parx for the weekend. I did the bus for a while but that gets old quick. (It's painful to have to leave when a drunk fish is sitting on a big stack

)

Basically I haven't found the golden ticket yet. I was going to take a few days off this month and go on a long weekend to FW. (Wed-Sun) I did the math and it was cheaper to go to Vegas for a week including airfare than simply paying for Fri and Sat night at FW. As you can imagine, it wasn't a tough decision...

Hi, I took the ECS Bus from Ramada Inn in stratford last week,its the same time and schedule as peter pan

Best option to get there early Monday morning from NYC? I can't leave Sunday night due to other obligations but don't wanna miss the Monday event. Is there a better bus option than Greyhound

Edit: my license is suspended so can't rent car.
