Idk how the place isn't packed its a really nice room with tons of action and hot waitresses. Felt safe walking out at 1am they had at least two cops out front

Hopefully word starts getting out

I heard some radio ads for the place yesterday (a MA FM station - not sure which one) which is more marketing outside the core poker crowd than I've seen out of any other room.

BB is decent, but you have to take a peek. It is a mixed venue, not just poker. The music from band or dj tends to be loud (so except it or don't). Also the Table games seems to be the biggest draw so far. The tables are nice and comfortable but action is hit or miss still at least for 2/4 NLHE.

The place is clean and the waitress, are nice, but very slow on drinks (overly paranoid about if you have a tab or not) and often very forgetful despite assigned tables. A few occasions it took seemingly forever for a bottled beer. It could be more of the bartenders...it was frustrating.

For 2/4,best action is still in Manchester...

Best 2x rempen sativa you can buy.

IRT BB- great room. Only possible con I can see is the music but personally I like it. Very clean, TVs everywhere, competent dealers (tips are not pooled) a nice bar/lounge area, pool tables AND arcade games; what more could you ask for? I checked with the floor and "Ecigs" are permitted as long as you take it away from the table. Having the ability to vape some sativa while playing almost makes up for the $4.00 bottled water.


Spoiler:
$4 for a bottle of ****ing water

On the bright side, $2 gansett tallboys if you want to drink cheap beer, and a decent selection of craft beer on tap (though the bartender couldn't tell me what was on the two roads tap - she hemmed and hawed for 20 seconds and then "uh, i think it's an IPA.") Anyone know if happy hour applies to all drinks or only a selection?

I bet I know the answer to that without even asking the bartender.

The non pooled tips is huge. Noticed every dealer was fast and competent also spoke to the poker manager and she mentioned they still don't have enough dealers if it got really busy

Good thing that's not a problem.

Non-pooled tips is awesome. I'm going to check out the room. I wonder which dealers ended up there. I haven't played in a while so I most likely will play at whichever place has the best dealers and environment and being able to smoke my E-Cigarette inside would be a very welcome few winter months.

Decided to give BBC a try:
Pros: Shortest drive
Cons:

Dealers incompetent.. They scraped the bottom of the barrel at the Rock and shipped all of them to BBC.

Band noise is deafening

Food is barely edible.
I arrived at 12:15 one 1/2 game with 4 players.
I decided to head over to Hampton Falls only to find out you can't get there from here.

Next time I go directly to Hampton Falls never to return to BBC.

All in all it is a great place if you like lousy music, shooting pool, playing roulette, BJ and Let it Ride, and getting drunk at the bar.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot, the floor said we could shoot pool while waiting for the poker tables to open up.

^^ are you > 50?

None of my experiences their have ever come close to anything in your TR. perhaps they had an off night; they're still adapting to offering poker/casino games. To completely write them off after one bad experience during the first 1-2 months of them operating seems a bit silly and closed minded.

Edit to add- they ARE on PokerAtlas, all you had to do was check the app and see how many tables were running. If only 1 table prob best to call and find out how many players seated you don't like shorthanded play. You can call them directly through the PokerAtlas app.

Give em another shot in the future IMO. Non-pooled tips means bad dealers will be weeded out quickly. They have kinks to work out, but gonna take time. I love the room, clearly.


Spoiler:
4$ waters tho. Wtf

LOL Hampton Falls pay you to write this? If you think the staff is incompetent you've obviously never tried Twin River. It's definitely a place for more laid back player that likes lots of action, good vibes and 10/10 suicide girl waitresses. Place is the nuts

I just need to find where my favorite dealer is dealing. I'm still not sure if I'm going to return to New Hampshire to play. I am no longer okay with risking my freedom to play poker due to draconian marijuana laws in the "Live Free or Die" state.

As if the rest wasn't over-the-top enough, WTF is this? Did you expect wall-to-wall action at midday, 15 minutes after they opened the doors?

Honestly, your whole trip report reads like a bunch of shillery.

So was this 12:15pm or 12:15am?

4 players at 12:15pm for a new room seems likely. What doesn't seem likely is a loud band playing at noon time.

So maybe it was 12:15am? That means you arrived 30 minutes before closing, and then after your horrific experience expected to drive 45 minutes and play at another room that closes before 1am.

I call.

Thanks for the reminder. I neglected to mentions that the waitresses are complete skanks. Not sure about the body piercings but the tattoos looked like they were done by a drunken boyfriend with a rusty ball point pen. OTOH, you can't say anything bad about the waitresses at Hampton Falls-quite attractive.

So you allegedly showed up at 12:15 (AM? PM?) and found that there was no game.

You decided to leave and go to Hampton Falls, which allegedly can't be reached using the same car you used to drive to BBCC—and certainly not in 45 minutes via the comprehensive system of modern highways and local roads that connect all other locations in the area. No siree.

So then you … what exactly? Sounds like you stayed at BBCC long enough to cast a wide net of judgment over the entire waitstaff, including closely examining all of their tattoos. How long did it take for the table to fill up to your liking? What game and stakes did you play? What was the table number? How long did you stay? What specifically did you get for food? How long did food and drink orders take to arrive? Specifically which "skank" waitress(es) served you?

To be clear, yes, I am calling the integrity of your TR into question. The internet is overloaded with suspicious reviews that lack meaningful details and seem to be written by shills. If I'm being totally honest, yours reads like one of them.
