Is there a typical day when the pink game goes or is it random ?

Did the tournaments always have 20 minute blinds? The $240 "deepstack" with 20 minute blinds seems like a slap in the face haha

I think the $240 is a 20/30. Once upon a time it was 30/40 but the guarantee dropped.

Last month i went to horseshoe a few times and got $50 in direct bets. Was talking to the table and people were saying they always give those away, and you get one basically every time you come and i just hadnt been collecting them like a noob. Anyway im heading up wednesday and wanted to check my promos and none were listed. No idea if it was listed online before or not.

I usually get a email for total rewards telling me what direct bets I got for what dates. Just swipe on your in. I don't believe I've ever seen on their website before

The name in Bravo is Victor Leone. Was he the original poker room manager? He's quoted in a WBAL article from when Horseshoe opened.

Anthony was the original manager.

I wonder if Victor is the table games manager who's killing the room...

No. That's Patrick Chan. Vic is a short, bearded former floor/dealer. They promoted from within.

Oh of course! I know who he is now. Name recollection tends to short circuit with me sometimes.

But is he the permanent one? I thought I heard something about them still looking or a new one maybe having been picked to come in post holidays.

My bad, I misread the article. Vic was quoted as a supervisor, not the room manager.

Good they have a poker guy in charge.

From my experiences, Vic has a pretty solid understanding of poker and how to deal/floor a room. I don't know how good of a Room Manager he will be (time will tell) but he seems to have a good rapport with the steady dealers.

Does horseshoe only spread 5 card PLO? I could have sworn I played regular PLO there before, but I only see 5 card when I check Bravo sporadically the last year or so.

Also, do they get any omaha hi/lo? i am sure they would spread it, but do you know if it ever runs? thx

5card high is the only game I've seen this past year but I stopped going when they lowered the comps from $3/hr to $1/hr over the summer.

hopefully the new poker room mgr reverses this.
is he on 2+2?

For the last week the highest # of tables I've seen running on Bravo has been 5.

If Caesar's desire was to create the least return on high potential, they've succeeded tremendously. I prefer the room - better food better table spacing etc - but they simply aren't competing.

With MD Live offering huge high hand promos this month to compete with MGM's opening, this was predictably going to be a bad month for HSB. I was there on Sunday and the room had 4 games total, with no 3/6.

Once MDL's promos come down, we'll see where the natural market lands. But it's not looking optimistic.

Now with 3 large poker rooms in the region (large being 25 tables or more), there is competition for our poker playing business. There are lots of ways for a poker room to compete for business. Currently, HB has the highest rake (6+1 instead of 5+2 at the other places) and I think they have the lowest comps ($1/hour) but am not sure about that. They also have small promotions.

I don't know what they will do, but I am expecting them to do something in order to compete for our business.
