I wonder if Borgata still has .50 pieces to use as antes for 1-5 & 5/10 ?

FYI, on Labor Day weekend a 5/10 & 10/20 game both got off. I played 10/20 for about 3 hrs. & 5/10 for an hour, and they were both decent games.

FWIW, I'd rather play 1-5 stud than 2/4 or 3/6 LHE any day...

We will use .50 pieces for the $5-$10 stud, 5% rake to $4

You are really going to pay folks $2/hour to sit and fold every hand?
Or is there a time charge? I think the Taj has rake plus $1 time charge for this game.

No time charge, just rake

To be fair, $2 isn't enough for me to play the typical 1-5 game. Average age is like 60, which is also the average time in seconds they take for each decision.

I also wonder if Borgata will draw the same "stud player" that you see @ Taj/Bally's/Harrah's ?

On another note, I'm cautiously optimistic Borgata can get these games (1-5, 5/10, 10/20) going. Looks like 20/40 has been going on weekends already.

its making me think about going down to the AC next month, that's for sure. I love stud, but never can find a game going out here, other that the Tuesday morning Sleep fest at Turning Stone.

To be honest, it is my fault that we didn't have any low limit stud. I really never pushed it. Today, when the advertisement went up on the wall, there was a lot of excitement about the posibility of having 1-5 and 5-10 stud. Players came up to me and said that they used to play stud in the small room and missed playing it. With that said, we already have a core of players in the room already. We should do very well and should be a lot of fun for us and the players.

This is exactly why Borgata is a 1st-class poker room. Thanks for making this happen Stan.

See you at one of the stud freeroll tournaments next week.
