Really? That's lame that it won't be open on Saturday of Memorial Day weekend.

This afternoon I spoke with a foxwoods reservations agent, she made a point to tell me that the MGM pool will open for the season this Thursday. I guess it's opening earlier than expected.

Anyone have the structure sheet for Saturday's $400 tournament? And what's the reg fee on it?

Strange that they don't have most of this info posted. The only thing confirmed is that the starting stack is 20k.

It's listed as a deepstack tournament, and they all have the same chip structure. All daily 20k stack tournaments have 20 min levels, but the highest buy-in daily ($300, 25k stack) has 25 min levels, so who knows. And it's probably $340+60.

How’s this for craziness?!?!

I went to book my anniversary at Foxwoods for July 9 – 11 like I do every year. I haven’t seen anything yet for room rates for the summer and I’m actually not expecting much of a break considering it’s the summer. So put in the info and they want $518 for the two days which are in the middle of the week mind you. I think something is wrong…they are trying to charge me $389 for July 10th alone?!?!? So I do a little digging and I see that Aerosmith is playing there that night. So they think that, that many people will be booking rooms because of Aerosmith?? And it’s not even sold out for the MGM Arena!!!

Talk about price gouging!!!

yeah something has changed with room prices, I'm always willing to stay at two trees but even there is almost double what they used to ask (and this is for every weekend I check, not just certain weekends)...I have friends that don't go as often and they are quoted much lower prices than mine. Definitely not conducive to gaining my loyalty once the Springfield/Palmer casino is complete (I live in central CT).

I checked my offers as well,

$99 - Grand Pequot Tower
$79 - Great Cedar Hotel & MGM Grand at Foxwoods
$69 - Two Trees Inn

Also points cut from 15/wk to 10/wk, in July....10 pts 2x/mo.

Have over 1k hrs and 120 visits in a rolling period according to Dream Rewards Kiosk. Mostly 2/5.

Foxwoods is losing a poker player....probably +EV for you guys, and for myself personally...win/win? Have a great mem day weekend!!

Put the $50 promotion chip on pass line. Hit yo-eleven on the first throw. Man, I love free money. 2 for 2, baby.

I feel for you guys. I got my usual free weekday rooms. Booked for july 4.

You gotta move to Manhattan. Probably everyone in the city are getting free rooms. It's the only reason I go out to Foxwoods. But I gotta say, I love the promotion betting chips, free points (good for food) and never-expiring (?) point total. Parx expire my points after like 60 days. That sucks.
