Seriously? Ari and his team have been nothing but accommodating to the players. You have to remember that this room is about 6 months old. They built it from nothing and have one of the best rooms on the East coast right now. Sure there were/are some problems and bumps in the road, but again this is still a very new room. So many issues were promptly taken care of. I think Ari is doing a fantastic job.

Visited Parx last night and was pretty impressed. Nice room, helpful floors, smoking area by the bar ( pretty important for us smokers) and good games. Played some 15 LHE with a lot of familiar faces (lots of AC faces), started pretty good 30game and played 4-5 hours. Had to leave at about 1am but sure i'll be back next week. To my surprise, this room is about an hour closer to my house then AC which is pretty awesome. Will try to make it next Wen for the mix game.

I've been to Parx a few times. In general good people and better games. Few cage questions: 1 - How does one go about getting a personal box at the cage? Is there a cost? What info is needed?....2- Why does the chip cage always seem to be short staffed?

That doesn't sound good at all, is this for real? Can anybody confirm?

Have been waiting for a larger pool of 5/10NL players before I join the game. Admittedly I've been there sporadically but it's always the same handful of players when I check out the table. Sigh.

Oh and I see no reason to bash Ari, even if he did have a floor guy make what sounds like a pretty big mistake. Overall it seems like Ari's off to a really good start here.

What were the blinds in NLH and PLO? Wass it capped? It would a good idea to cap it at 5-600. How do you feel about overs in the game?

What "doesn't sound good at all" and what was the mistake? He didn't even explain or say one way or another what the situation was other than that a certain player doesn't play there anymore.

Might be different now, but in the beginning you just had to have played a certain number of hours to justify it. No cost, you just need your parx card and a license, then you sign some paperwork. Since there are only so many boxes, they may have a higher threshold now.

Not sure what you're asking for. Many of the 10/25 players have moved their game over to Chester. To each his own I guess. I wasn't there the day of "the incident", but I have heard those guys complain about various things to the floors back when they did play. They wanted to run their game a certain way, and the Parx management apparently decided that they'd prefer to keep it running the way they wanted to have it done. No shame in that on either side, and let the players vote with their feet. Competition is good for everyone.

For my money, the Parx poker room staff are awesome and efficient, they treat the players well, and they know what they are doing. YMMV.

I didn't play this week but blinds were 2/5 and cap was $1k for both games. I expressed the view that cap should be $600 (20 big bets), but they want the cap to be the same as the normal max in those 2/5 games.

Thread discussing the game here:

So leaving AC I saw a billboard advertising a 100k freeroll at Parx with qualifying starting in June and ending in July sometime. Google search didnt turn anything up. How is the qualifying going to work?

You are going to need 100 combined hours of play in June and July

lol'd

Any cliffs or links so I can read up on this?

Well, with respect to replacing Ari -

People are still smoking in the bathroom, OMG!

I mean, I can't go in and take a dump w/o smelling smoke. In a casino! Effing outrageous.







Seriously - A damn fine poker room; been open only a few months. Should do nothing but improve.

And, by the way, OP shows up late for a tournament and bitches about it taking too long for him to get a seat? WTF?! Dude, you were late! IDK.

Qualify June 1st to July 31st.

Prize pool 100k

100-139 10k in chips
140-179 12k in chips
180+ 15k in chips

Last free roll had 538 players.

All the players last time seem to really like it, we hope to have the same turn out.

Regards

Ari

Was this freeroll created purely to punish the everyday regulars who decide to spend the summer in vegas?!

Jerks.

Enjoy June in Vegas, then get your hundred hours in July =)

What day will it be?

August 8th, right before the Parx poker tournament series.

Well, that confirms I won't play in the freeroll. the tourny series news may have made me so excited that I may have peed my pants a little... or a lot. It was a lot

Yes we are playing a tournament series in mid august, we are really excited. 500k in guarantees!

Heading down to Parx for some pokering today. Hope to see some of you there (not at my table tho, I want a bunch of old lagtards at my table)

After deciding to destroy some tourists down in AC at the Borgata I realized that Parx has some of the best customer service of all of the poker rooms that I have ever played in. Keep it going guys.

How many runners did the tourney get yesterday?

136ish last week right?

117 last night. Not bad though considering it's Memorial Day Weekend. Heading over tonight. You going?

Anyone have an idea of how often that 6-12 mixed game goes off or the 8-16 limit hold em blue chip which sounds sexy I love limit games with tons of chips but tons of reds can hurt me sometimes
