Presidents day perhaps? Do full timers have 4 day weeks with a holiday?

It's Prime vacation week with kids off school. Even with that said they should be able to compensate for it. Pretty bad.

There were massive hordes of children there all week. I counted 39,472 kids in the Two Trees pool at 8:45 on Thursday morning while I was in the exercise room. It was a frightening sight.

Running 2 series in 1 month is very interesting. Feel like most people are gonna just wait til the WSOP. Be interested to see the numbers for the fields.

I'm sure MS will kill it with blackjack players jumping ship to go over there.

I'm sure it purely coincidental, but I sent an email to Foxwoods explaining my unhappiness with playing the last couple months, 3 days a week and getting no rooms. They explained that I needed to play more pit/table games to give me a better chance at free rooms.

Well... I don't still don't play pits, but I just checked my offers and BOOM, free rooms in April.

I've just begun playing $1/$2NL at foxwoods, and its very important for me to get the comped Midweek Room offers ASAP. A couple poker regs told me to go play a few bucks on roulette, or i've considered learn enough about blackjack to play close to breakeven until I get my offers. Any thoughts on these and expediting this process?

If you've really just started, you're not going to see any until at least May.

However, nobody really knows the secret. Your best bet is to become friendly with some regs, and share their rooms until you get some offers. It could be awhile though...

I hardly come down (been there twice since August 2012), play only 4/8 hold'em for a day, and I've gotten free rooms Feb, March and April. I think living in a south of Boton zip code was the trigger more than anything. ~Joe

I would have to agree that it is pretty hard to figure out how to get free rooms. If I were to make a bet though, I would say that it involves how much you tip.

Don't think that is true

It's certainly not true. I was hoping he was being facetious and doesn't really believe that.

I got the same offers and so did a buddy of mine and we havent gone a ton in the past few months. Just remember that all of these are based on availability. The rates aren't guaranteed.

The probability that you would purchase a room if they did not give it to you for free? So if you are betting 1k a hand blackjack they figure you have enough money to buy a room if they don't offer it for free. Yes, giving you good comps would entice you to come back and drop more money on -EV games, but they are getting guaranteed money when you buy a room.
