Windsor....
 

Just letting everyone know.. I was over at windsor this weekend.. and they have now gone from the $6 a half hour to a rake on the $100 max 1/2 Game... it makes for a more enjoyable game, and I kind of like the new format. I talked to the Pokerroom manager and they are goin to start comping poker players there starting next month.. just giving u guys an update... have a good one

Re: Windsor....
 

Thanks for the info. How much do they rake? Do they have a $200 max 1/2? Do you have any idea how much they'll be giving in comps?

Re: Windsor....
 

not to sure... the rake is 10% up to $5.. they have 200$ max but blinds are $ 2,5 but there still is a session fee there which sucks...

the comps im not to sure of.. ill fill ya in when i know more..

At the behest of my "partner", I relented and got a passport to facilitate what should be a brief encounter with Canadian customs on the other side of the bridge or tunnel. Last time, armed with my passport, those idiots asked the same damn questions, and everytime I answered by saying "Yeah, you have my passport in your hand." Since 911, I rarely go to Canada. Too much b.s.

WOW ...is it that hard to say" I live in XXXX, im going to windsor casino for about X hours. "

Re: Windsor....
 

Do they normally run the 1/2 all the time?? Are they open 24 hours during the week?

Re: Windsor....
 

Where's the cheapest place to stay also? Even Super 8 Motel looks expensive.

Re: Windsor....
 

omg so excited!

Re: Windsor....
 

$2-5 w/ a $200 max is a [censored] game. Man I hate that. Commerce is like that. They even have a $5-10 w/ a $400 max buyin.

Re: Windsor....
 

I can't see Greektown surviving much longer. The $100NL game seems to be the only game in the house based on what people say. If you are a smoker then it's a good place to play, but sooner or later I think it's going to close. I doubt it will last past next year espescially after MGM opens a room and after MC expands.

They are the last people I'd want to piss off. In high school a friend of mine had a Ford Ranger (about 15 years ago). The border guard asked if he had anything in his truck and he responded in typical smartass tone, "a spare tire and a jack." They pulled us over, took his seats out and left it to him to put it back together. I'm not sure if htey took his door panels off or not, but they may have. I think they may have given him a socket wrench, but I don't really know since I hopped in w/ a car that was following us over there.

I basically lived in Windsor last summer, I go there every few months on average now. The Poker Room Manager's have been saying this for the last two years. All of the regulars were getting upset over food comps, so they promised a comp system. They put in the Pronto Cafe' (Small hole in the wall right by poker place) which has hot dogs, cold sandwiches, and terrible pizza. This was supposed to be "free, edible in the poker room (bleh), etc." Not a thing was true.

I would take everything that they say with a grain of salt, they are retarded. Also, the switch to rake is very nice, did they do the same to all games or just 1/2nl? Hopefully they will allow an actual buy in soon, lol.
