Can someone explain (not in crayon) what the hot seat promotion is? I'll be going here in a few weeks.

They draw a random table/seat. Specific seat gets the higher amount, each of the other seats at that table get the lower amount.

Is the minimum buy-in for the smallest Omaha game $100? If not, what is it?

Is the smallest Omaha game 2/2? If not, what is it?

No. If you get the hot seat, you get a coloring book.

The new gray felt looks to be on 7-8 tables closest to the cage. I would assume the rest will be going gray shortly, or those are going to be just tournament tables?

Tournaments announced last night and up on bravo this morning. Sun-tue starting 11/18. Sunday morning tournament is a $150 5k guarantee green chip bounty.

I heard yes, all tables are going gray.

The story on the red felt I heard: originally the tables were orange with ochre border, matching the dealer shirts. A higher up came in shortly before opening and nixed them. They had red in storage.

They will be gray-brown soon if they don't keep up with the vacuuming. It's like Bally's AC level grime.

And that Sunday could be quite fun if it's populated by the 1/2 regs.

Played 3/6 LHE here yesterday, good atmosphere; better than FW and MUCH better than TR. I would definitely go here again as it is about the same distance for me to the CT casinos and I don't like TR at all. Didn't find the casino any shadier than others I have been to. Will see what happens when Encore opens in summer 2019.

Caveat: the valet parking is not free for low rollers like me. Not sure level of play to get free valet parking.

Bill's diner has some pretty good food for a casino food court. Tried Rose's but it was an hour wait and I had a 2 hour ride home, so that was a no go.

To the lady on my right in the 1 seat and guy on my right in the 3 seat - didn't catch your 2P2 names, but good to play with you both. I'm sure we will meet again.

Back in the early days of 2+2, we had a password to meet/greet each other at a poker table without tipping off the fish that we were serious students of the game who read books and discussed strategy on the internet.

I miss the days of, "S'up, bro?"

I have found that 2+2ers are either totally open about who they are or freakishly secretive about their true identities. I have always been open concerning who I am and have met some great people from here. Some of my closest friends, I have met as a result of this forum.

I think, "Does the brown trout sleep in the closet?" figured into it. But "S'up bro," used to work for me when I lived in Vegas in the 90's.

Had to register and create an account for this. Got a $12 comp from the poker room, ordered $24 worth of food at the lobster shack, got it free without paying the difference! Not sure if I was just running good (someone had previously mentioned 20% over is the limit) or if this standard operating procedure. Hot lobster roll was the GOAT fyi

my budded just texted me and thinks I might have -12 comp points??? Im heading over now Ill check it out

Probably should never post something like this on a forum where the guys that run the room can read it. Just sayin’...

As an aside, the comped “Hot Lobster Roll” is not worth the price!

I've had a couple and thought they were all great. Not off the dock in Maine fresh, but pretty decent serving size for the price.
