Re: Borgata Poker Room - Red Bull?
 

What about those delicious sandwiches the high limit players get; I believe there from Wolgang Pucks restauraunt next door.

One Saturday they must have had new servers and the 2/5nl 10/20 limit players were getting the fed pretty regularly... It was like a feeding frenzy until the floor noticed.

Not exactly BS, it's been said over and over again- the casinos make very little from the poker rooms compared to the regular table games and especially the slots. I think the main reason they have the rooms is because they want you to come to the casino and also gamble.

Just about every player in the high limit room at Borgata clocks in with a black card. They aren't getting that card playing poker OR low limit BJ, slots, etc.

Re: Borgata Poker Room - Red Bull?
 

Not saying that this is how they earned it but in order to qualify for a Balck label card at the borgata you need to earn 1000 comp dollars in a year. You get comped at $2 an hour playing poker at 10/20 limit and higher(might be 20/40) i can't remember and i don't know what 2/5 NL is comped at. So if you play at one of these games 500 hours in a year, 10 hours a week you can make black label.

Many probably have some table/slots action as well, but it is possible to do with the majority of it coming from poker.

It is quite feasible to get a black card just playing high-limit poker if you are a regular player. You have to earn 1000 comp dollars per year, so if you play a game that comps $2/hr, that's 500 hours/year, or 10 per week.

Re: Borgata Poker Room - Red Bull?
 

Another perk of the high limit room is you can eat at the table. I remember one time I played 5/10 on a Friday and got a redbull, then on Saturday I played 2/5 and was told they didn't have redbull, I was like wow I can't believe they don't have redbull anymore. Then somebody at the table tells me they only give redbulls out in the high limit room. So if you're not in the high limit room and want a red bull you're going to have to spring 5 bucks for one in one of their stores.

Give some love for the desserts there - they are incredible. As are the rare roast beef sandwiches and fruit. Love it - but glad its only one hr on sats or I'd gorge myself all the time there.

I got my Borgata Black Label card by presenting my Trump One Chairman Card when signing up for a card at Borgata.

Seriously, I'm the only 40/80 and 80/160 player I've ever seen with a Red-label card. I think it gets me more action because when Black-label regulars see it, they think I'm a small-stakes player taking a shot. Advantage: me.
