Anyone know about the buses from Boston to foxwoods? I haven't been in a few years so I'm trying to figure it out. I used to take the transpacific bus from Chinatown to foxwoods, but I called them yesterday and they don't do buses to foxwoods anymore?

If I wanted a cheap bus around midday, what are the recommendations?

All the info is there

Did anyone see the new blue felt on Table 75? Are they going to do this for all of the tables? That would be nice, those green ones are getting a little worn in the tooth.... Trying to upload my picture of it....

Haven't seen the new felt but:

There was a table in the 70's (don't remember exactly which table) that I played on last week where the cards would slide in between the felt and the leather cup holder thing. Maybe they fixed the issue by replacing the felt?

That happens on a lot of tables.

I saw that too this past weekend. It's a good new look imo.

Upstairs tourney area is slowly shutting down. In a month, daily tourneys will be held downstairs under the archway. Big events will still be held upstairs but for how long no one knows. New tourney podium already in place downstairs. The word on the street is that the race book will also be moving. Changes, changes, changes.

So I had a comp hotel room. Didn't cancel it by the 48-hour window. Policy said uncancelled reservations would be charged the 1st night. Anybody have that happen and then get charged $50?

Yes the penalty charge on comped rooms is $50.

"Must Cancel with 48 hrs of check-in to avoid 50pt cancel fee"

Has anybody received their August offers yet? I usually get mine just after the 15th of the month but have yet to anything yet. Trying to see if this is the case for everybody or do I need to call them to see whats up. Thanks

When the system was down last Monday for maintenance or whatever, something in the system changed. Usually weekend room folks get them on the 15th, but they did not get them until yesterday. And some Royals who have not decreased their play did not get them yesterday either. I'm all over this because I'm one of those people, and am gonna get to the bottom of it this weekend.

I'll second that. I haven't received anything yet. My concern with Foxwoods "2 hour maintenance" that lasted 10 (plus some more Wednesday) is that they lost my and many others history. Behind the scenes they obviously screwed something up and can't rebuild the past.

What are the hours for the Hampton Lounge? Do they serve food right up until closing? How's the beer and liquor selection, anything specific worth noting? Cheers

Thanks for the info... you seem to always be in the know. FYI: I finally got my offers this morning (free Sunday-Friday)

I received discounted rates for June and July. I didn't like the July offers. Just recently, I received free rooms for certain July dates. I have no idea what is going on but I decided to cancel this Sunday's reduced rate for TT and use the points during July.

I got them yesterday too. Free weekday rooms. Back to 'normal'.
