From the picture, it looks like they really didn't know what they were doing. Seats 1 and 10 are way too close to the dealer (right at the end of the padding), and they have seats 2 and 9 too close to 1 and 10. With 4 to 7 also being too close together, that leaves a huge amount of room for seats 3 and 8 while squeezing everyone else.

What happened at the Ocean yesterday 120 let loose including that former seating controller you could count on to book you a room for a handshake. A little more realigning of economics to stem the losses. Summers coming, they gott'a make that nut!!!!

they fired a bunch of people 6 weeks before the season starts?

that's a bold strategy, Cotton

Went to @theoceanAC for the
Toaster oven promotion.
A major disaster of epic
Proportions. Hundreds of
People in line for hours and
Nothing worked. The lines
Were long. A friend told me
The end of the line was
Somewhere in front of
Tropicana on the Boardwalk.
After, 3 and a half hours in
Line, I reached the front
Of the line at #TheOceanAC
And was told by a supervisor
That all of the software bugs
Had been fixed. Knowing Ocean
Resort employs the most incompetent
Software programmers in the
Country, I knew, nothing at the
Kiosk was going to work.
And so it was. The supervisor
At the promotions/new card
Desk wanted to email me in
The future about it. Ocean Resort
Has never responded to an
Email request so I knew
That wasn't going to
Happen. Miraculously,
The only supervisor with
The power to issue a handwritten
Ticket walked in. And after losing
Almost 4 hours of time I could
Have been feeding the slot machine
Benjamin Franklins, I successfully
Got the toaster oven. But
Now I needed a nap and some
Happy pills.
All of the executives, board members,
and shareholders
Of The Ocean Resort corporation,
Should be there on one of
These promotion days to
Witness the fraud being
Perpetrated on their black
Card holders, and not wonder
Why they have no chance in
The world of being profitable.
Beyond that, they need individuals
at each and every kiosk
Empowered to write out
Handwritten tickets.
And as I've written on
Several occasions, all of
Of the computer programmers
At Ocean Resort
Should be fired without further ado.

You must really like toast! ;-)

Any chance William Hill is showing Wrestlemania tonight??

Just spoke to William Hill
at Ocean Resort, they will
NOT be showing wrestlemania
Tonight. I have been watching
A lot of college basketball
In the poker area of late.
to be fair, the promotions
This month are quite awesome,
$3/hr cashback, $2.50/hr comps
Free food, free rooms 7 days /week,
$25 slot play plus $25 dining offer
Every two weeks. Free: duffel bag,
Wine opener, food processor,
Waffle maker,
Fruit mixer/food processor, dual buffet server, rain jacket,
Doctor doesn't want me eating
Toast due to carbohydrate and fat
Content, and there is the
Acceptable risk of getting
Married to a slot machine..

What do I need to do for the free rooms? I played eight hours on Saturday and the rate they offered went from $279 in the morning to $259 in the evening -- I told them no thanks.

I like the Ocean's a lot -- trying to evaluate whether I'd rather build up juice here or someplace in the marina. I'm ~1/3 of the way to the yellow card if that's what it's going to take.

If your average daily play
Is 8 hrs/day expect to
Get room offers.
Make sure they have both
Your e-mail address
And mailing address.
Once a month you'll receive
A written flyer in the mail,
And about once or twice
A week you'll receive
An email with offers.
I don't know how many days
You have to play before the
Room offers kick in.

Play slots a bit... i get 7 days a week and all the trimmings. Gifts, gift cards. Slot play, hookers and blow. Seems poker doesn’t effect ADT score at ocean. Unlike every other house.

DAMN THIS IS SO SAD

Wow, that is so sad, RIP Bruce

You rescued us from Glenn Straub, and deserved better.

Just played at Oceans Sunday at midnight to 3am - Very nice resort - and really surprised it didn't have more people playing. Only 2 games going and they all broke at 3am.

I than played a little 9/6 JOB but didn't stay long. I think I managed to get $5~ in comps for my play.

I think they should change the 1/2 game to 1/3 with a $100 - $500. It could get more attention from people with a little more $$$ that don't want to only play at borgata.

Every one was really nice though, and tried to be helpful when I asked where certain machines were.

You waited 3.5 hours for a free toaster oven? My god

I'm very embarrassed by the prospect of waiting a couple
Hours on Friday for an 8-cup food processor to make
Smoothies. But if I wait on Sunday for the
Rolling Duffel bag, I'll be able to stuff the duffel bag,
in the future
With a modest Field and Stream
3-person dome tent, that way I can
Pitch a tent by the kiosk
So i can wait, and wait, and wait in style
for future
Promotions.

LOL! Comedy gold. I think the choppy writing style might even add to the charm.

Incidentally, don't really have anyplace else to put this, but saw something hilarious in my session this past Saturday -- MAWG who's apparently known in the room for being strange/tilty loses a pot against a kid he's been tangling with, kid had KK unimproved and the MAWG couldn't beat it -- stands up and leaves, and after he's gone, the button's gone too! Guy literally stole the button. We played with a reserved marker for a button for three orbits until one of the floormen finally provided us a replacement.

Bravo indicates the BBJP
hit on Monday
Quad AAAA VS
quad 10-10-10-10.
Was anyone there?

I tested one of the
Phone chargers at
The table and it works!

You mean you weren't there? Thought you were always there! Lol

The cash back can be picked up
starting today.

The badbeat was hit by
6 players, playing
Their 6th hand at the
Table at 6 pm last Monday.
One player flopped quad tens.
The other made Aces full
On the turn and rivered quad Aces.

Is the rake still atrocious? And pots are raked preflop still?

no need to worry about those things if you only play AA and KK and get to collect $3.50/hr of sweet sweet comps

O god In that case I’d rather just lose it at the fancy new slot machines

comps are 3.50 per hour? thought they were 2.50? can someone confirm?

$2.50/hour, plus if you make it to 50+ hours a month there's around $3/hour in cash (depending on exact hours, there's tiers of cashback based on hours, it's all on the Bravo).

I got an email today from Ocean with my first free/complimentary room offer. It is for two nights Sunday through Thursday.

I only played poker for a few hours there but I lost a couple hundred on slots. I think I wagered a hundred or two on sports as well but I'm not sure if that plays into room offers.
