Also I've heard good things about the new Grand Vic game, but for me I can't justify driving an hour to play in the 10/20 half kill game with 8 dollars rake when I have the Hollywood that is 10 minutes from me and 6 dollars rake even though I hate the room. If they got a 20/40 or 30/60 game I would make the drive, but if the shoe can't get those games running consistently then I don't see how the Grand Vic will.
FWIW, tonight is Sunday night, and I see the Shoe has a 10/20 with a FULL kill tonight, according to Bravo.

OK, so, scratch much of that. After a strong start, it seems that the 10/20 HK at the Grand Vic in Elgin has dried up and is only reliably running on Tuesdays, as that's the day of the 20/40 LHE feature game at the Hollywood Aurora, thus driving the Omaholics north to Elgin.
Also, my friend has struck out on his last two trips to the Grand Vic in terms of getting a 10/20 game going at all.
In other news, Arky tells me there'll be a 6/12 O8 game with a 2/3 kill at Thursday Rockford Charitable events, starting 7/31.
