Bump so Jaran can get more indications of interest.

Also (and the real reason), Buzz, I think you thought I was a Brit because you maybe saw on Stars that I was from Westminster. Actually it's a suburb of Denver. Some B.C.ers think I'm near Vancouver.

Ameristar has the most tables (15+). Gilpin is fine for tournaments, sucks for regualr play. I'll comment more after work.

Re: June Blackhawk trip-Colorado Micro meet up
 

The lodge is ok, but unless they have changed their setup, they only have 4 tables. Seems to be a fairly dead room. The gilpin is also nice but is mostly a tournament poker room. They have 4 regular tables, but even on the weekends I rarely see more then 2 tables going. The tournament tables(20?) are usually full however.

I find the ameristar has the best poker room. The lighting is poor and does result in some glare though. One table is usually going till about 1 or 2pm, then the room fills up fairly quickly with most tables going by around 5 pm. I would suspect this is one most folks from denver are heading up the hill. The tables are mixed between very tight and very loose players. Maybe one or two per table have any skill. Plenty of lagtards though.

Colorado Central station has only a few tables and I have never really liked that room. My opinion of course so others may have a different view.

Thats really it for quality poker rooms. Its a shame cripple creek is so far away. The gilded rose has some very passive loose tables.

I dunno if I'll be able to make it down. I'm working up in Sheridan, Wy right now and an 8-9 hour drive one way doesn't look to inviting. Not so much the drive, but 2-3 tanks of gas.

Golden Gates has a very nice well lit room. Almost always has some props playing tho.

So it's like 8 days or something till June, if we do a head count now are we just being old women?

Re: June Blackhawk trip-Colorado Micro meet up
 

Part of the reason I like ameristar is the bad beat jackpot. Yeah I know I have little to no chance of winning it, but since all their casinos are linked its usually around 120-160k. Big bucks no wammy!!!

Re: June Blackhawk trip-Colorado Micro meet up
 

Alright, should we start planning this or realize our trip report is going to be "...and then kerowo locked his car..." and just pretend we forgot about it to avoid getting pwned by BBBs trip report?

Re: June Blackhawk trip-Colorado Micro meet up
 

I've got a soccer game at like 10p Friday night, but if this thing actually happens I have no problem skipping the sports to GAMBOOL... and I have two friends that will probably come as well.

I nominate 7p as a meeting time, knowing full well that I'll not get there till closer to 8:00.

Re: June Blackhawk trip-Colorado Micro meet up
 

I was gonna post/email/PM today. I'll prolly be leaving Boulder between 4:30-5. Not sure how many will be coming w/me, but at least 4(no pokerplayers, though). Meetup place yet tbd.
