Tropicana (AC)

[Bulldog]

So I've been to AC more than a dozen times, but I've never been to the Trop. In fact, I feel pretty loyal to the Borg but on Saturday I'll be cheating on my shiny gold home. What can I expect to find at the Trop from say, 11 AM until 10 PM?

No wait, small games, good SSNL + SSLHE action, decent higher stakes action, lots of old nits, money pink chips.

After 9PM--Lots and Lots of drunk tourists and few pros.

Very soft games at the lower limits. Mostly competent and friendly dealers. Cocktail service not always great, but mostly okay.

Good action in the $1/2 NL, $7.50/15 "pink chip", & $5/10 stud. Floorperson told me that the $4/8 LHE used to be great, but all the fish are in the $1/2 NL game now.

The Trop is no doubt the best house in town for low-limit action, i.e. 1-2 NL and limit games under 10-20. Wait lists are very manageable, the sea is full of fish, and the floor staff is very competent. I sometimes miss my days there, but alas have moved up in limits.

And if you're in to low-stakes limit poker, ya gotta try the Pink Chip game. It's donkalicious.

The donk factor:stakes ratio is very good in the pink chip game.

i'd agree the pink chip is full of regular tight nits that are easily identifiable and idiots, the 4/8 is also remarkably as bad as the 2/4 anywhere. trops great for l-lhe. a/

I played $5/10 7CS on a weekday around the holidays. I bought in for $200, cashed out around $500.
Lots of asian ladies from NYC gambooling. The rocks were all playing $1/5 7CS & $2/4 HE.

The games are decent, but the comps suck and the House is just nitty about things that are important to me (e.g. poker room rates, decent food, etc.). The two times I've played the pink game, it was fine but not great. I can see this thing going off for some serious action every now and then, though.

The pink chip game rocked both times I played it. Sure I lost my entire stake both times, but what a game. Many calling two cold pre-flop and 3-4 to the river. My last money went in when my KK got cracked by A7o, when his A hearts beat my K hearts on a four flush board. Can't wait to get down there and donate another stake! A10o calling two cold crack my AKs...the list goes on.

In the future, any 2+2'ers in the pink chip game should indentify themselves by folding once so I know who you are! Thanks in advance.
