So I live in CC, without a car and am interested in going to Parx. As best I can tell it will take me as long, or longer than going to AC (95 min). The quickest way of course would be to take Regional Rail to a station nearby, and then a cab for the last couple of miles. I'm hesitant to attempt this though, because after looking on Google streetview the stations don't appear to be that large, or have cab stands.

Has anyone gotten a cab from a RR station? Is one station particularly better than the others. Nearest ones appear to be Eddington, and Trevose.

I'm strictly a NL girl, but I have at least 1, maybe 2, recruits for you guys tonight. I can be talked into plo after drinking, but I'm historically very luckbox-y at poker when drunk, so I'm not sure you want me to play

Yes, I did find the bus. However it starts at the end of the Blue line at Frankford and takes an additional hour on top of the 30 min ride on the EL. For all that riding, I could just easily take Jersey transit to AC and go to the Borg.

You may have yourself a deal, Mr. Face. It'll be a gametime decision.

I haven't called them, I just scoured their website and found nothing. Google came up empty as well. I personally don't understand why they wouldn't shuttle people between Center City and the casino...seems like the logical move to me.

Question of etiquette: For 4/8 LHE should I buy in with the $2 chips or are the $5 chips fine?

I usually buy 1 or 2 racks of blues when i play 4/8 o8 on occasion, followng the rest of the table, so id imagine the same can be expected at the lhe tables.

Typically it's about a 75 minute trip on the El to Bridge and Pratt and then the 50 bus to Parx. The other advantage to AC is that the buses back to CC run all night whereas you can't easily get from Parx back to CC late at night.
