Horseshoe Baltimore (Baltimore, MD) -- FAQ in OP, added 2014.09.09 - Page 16 - Venues & Communities -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

When you're playing, is there anyway to know exactly when you've utilized all your free play? My last session I ran the 25 up to 52, cashed out 38. Pretty sure I bet some money that wasn't free play, which is something I would like to avoid.

Yes. When you hit cash out, it will only give you the portion you have played through and the rest will show up in your bank on the bottom left of the touch screen when you put your card in.

Anyways, I'm a reg at the shoe and I'm wondering how many hours you have accumulated for the sep-October bankroll promo, as I can't imagine anyone having many more hours than you? I'm just trying to get a feel for my odds, as I expect about 100-150 people to have 20+ hours, with a total raffle ticket number around 600. Thanks.

What level poker do you play?

Just wondering if you know how much rake you paid in the last month?

at 100 hours, you are paying about $2100 in rake and BBJP not counting the tips.

correct the rake and they will come and play.

Personally, I was planning on becoming a diamond again, but it is not worth $150 a week.

I play 1-3. Played roughly 200 hours. Over 200 hours of 1-3, what do you think would be the difference in rake paid with a 6 dollar rake, and no flop, no drop, opposed to a 5 dollar rake?

What is diamond worth, other than the 100 dollar dinner? It seems useless to me, and I can't understand people's infatuation with it. Seven stars, on the other hand...

Diamond gets you access to the Diamond lounge, better room offers, priority hotel check in, priority poker seating 20% discount in gift shop, free parking, better seating in the buffets in Vegas,

Thanks. At 100-150 people I'd assume the average ticket count would be about 6 per person, putting 600-900 tickets in the raffle. I'd also assume a max of 80% of those eligible will show up, leaving 480-720 winning tix. You should have a reallly good shot as you'll prob end up with 24+ tix. Would be nice to ship this, as ill have a little over 40hrs.

Does anyone know if a person can only win once? That's a huge assumption in my calculations.

Yup. And supposedly they don't even honor the priority seating. Like I said, seven stars is the only tier worth a crap

If you're actually getting to 35 tix and my numbers are anywhere close to correct then the math says you're basically a coin flip to win every month. I'd hedge each month with another full time reg if I were you, unless of course you don't mind 3k flipaments.

Just noticed 3000 tier points went missing on my account. If there wasn't a line around the corner at all times Id go investigate. Anyone else experience the same?

Heard a lot of people saying they were getting an accelerated rate of tier credits...maybe they are retracting

Is it possible that they expired?
