Did I see somewhere that 6/12 HORSE runs once per week? What day/time does it usually run?

Thanks!

I don't think razz is allowed but if horse is going I'd play too.

Thank you! I just might have to check it out...

MGM National Harbor - can you please establish a ladies poker class? MD Live is doing it; and it’s received quite well. Please consider. I know several ladies who would attend. Thanks!

I've played about 10 hours in the past week or two, and no comps have been put on my card. Has anyone had this issue/know how to get it resolved?

We have a property wide set of tests going on. They have tested the poker room. We will have a fix for the slowness/disconnection issues shortly.

Am I misreading, but in PPO Event #1 late entry/re-entries are allowed through level 11? If that's the case could you give the reasoning behind letting people sign up 6 hours after the start time? Seems like a pretty big window.

$500k guarantee. You can have a more limited entry/re-entry period and a lower guarantee as a consequence, or you can have a big guarantee and allow for more entries/re-entries out of necessity. People seem to prefer big guarantees.

i was told by a dealer no lucky tables this Fri/sat because of the tourny.
yet Bravo doesnt exclude any fri/sat in July from the Lucky Tables promo.

Which is right?

Does not matter. USB-C to lightning cables exist.

Wrong. Newer power bricks that come with newer phones have Type C ports and use C-to-C cables and are 3x faster. That's why I am suggesting rolling with the newer, faster, smaller, double-sided, and less damage-prone technology. Force others to use a C-A adapter if they don't want to upgrade.

You want 90% of the people to get an adapter so you don't have to?

The PPO schedule looks great, but I'm pretty disappointed to see that most of the tournaments apparently will be using a regular ante, rather than a big blind ante. Johnny, what gives?! MGM was totally correct a few months ago to move its entire regular tournament schedule to the big blind ante format. Major kudos for that decision -- it's been incredibly well received. So why must we now revert to the antiquated ante format in the PPO?

If it is at all possible to change this (and yes, I realize the structure sheets have already been posted and printed), I urge you to reconsider and make all PPO events big blind ante tourneys!

+1 I’d imagine most players would be in favor of this change

Just to offer another point of view on the issue, I think BBA format when executed improperly presents more drawbacks than positives. Sure, it lends for a better experience for players and dealers, and increases the h/hr rate but it affects incentives and action, especially around the bubble. In addition, if player moves, and table breaking aren't done more efficiently it would provide opportunity for unfair situations. While I amn't against the format, I hope the supervisors take great care to make the game fair for everyone if they decide to use it.
