Genuinely curious - what's the rationale for that promo? Luring the 2-4-6 players away from Chester? I think the only time I've ever seen a LHE game (below 5/10) run at Sugarhouse was during the DNC.

Is the Sugarhouse poker room still open? Or did the players strike over the $1 rake increase force them to close shop?

They have been running this promo and I have yet to see a LHE game go.

We did run a LHE game a few months ago with some of the Harrah's dealers. But it was one night only.

Just in case you're not trolling, go to BravoPokerLive.com for more information.

LOL! Seems to be spreading too. Delaware park is taking an extra dollar too so they can compete for the high hand whores without killing their regular promotions.

I did see it run one night I was there but haven't seen it since.

They had like 6-8 tables yesterday when checked while Parx had around 20ish. Bet the games are softer as regs will be going more to parx

I was in today and there were 5 or so names for 3-6, but the game didn't go. If anyone wants to play today I'm staying not far from there and would come back.

I also could get a game going Thursday if anyone on here plays, or just wants to chase the promo money.

As a person who would like to see sugarhouse succeed and have larger tournaments in the future. STOP TRYING TO COMPETE WITH PARX & BORGATA TOURNAMENTS. YOU WILL NOT WIN.

Agree huge mistake but on the bright side the strongest players will be at the other tournaments

Agree, but its the attitude that Sugarhouse thinks they can compete with Parx/Borgata that infuriates me. They have massive potential given their Geographic area to host huge tournaments if they A. Dont schedule during Parx/Borgata B. Slap a big guarantee on it. I bet if they ran a $500 300K GTD it would hit and potentially much higher.

Does that mean no matter what in 30 days they expire or if you don't use the card in 30 days?

It's almost like some of you have never been to a casino before. Expiring comps is nothing new. Ymmv on the length, but it shouldn't surprise anyone
