Top AC Players
Who are some of the top players in AC? Where and what games are the pro's playing? I hear the high limit mix games have alot of top pro's? Is the 80-160 stud game at the taj's a tough game? I see alot of older players in this game.

Re: Top AC Players
the 2-5 game has alot of selfprofessed pro's, meaning its full of regulars who claim to play for a Living, but dont let this fool u, the games are 100 percent beatable, and most of these players arent very good, and will pay u off. As for the high limit i just got back from borgata and cindy violettte and victor rambdin were in the high stakes room, violette playing 3-6 stud, and rambdin 10-25 nl.

Re: Top AC Players
I don't know about top players per se, but whenever I go, I usually see some of the same people dominating the tables who I saw on my last trip.

Re: Top AC Players
Cindy Violet may not be good at Hold'em, but she played Stud HI professionally for several years.

Re: Top AC Players
crazy, wouldn't have thought it. Now I know not to play 300/600 with her.

Re: Top AC Players
I watched her win her first WSOP bracelet in Stud 8 back in I think 2004 at Binions. She plays well and took it down after a getting HU well ahead and then proceeding to need hours to finish her opponent off. She stayed tough. Stud is her game, NLHE is for TV.

Re: Top AC Players
I remember Daniel Negreanu saying that she improved a lot in NLHE but that stud was her "bread and butter". I think she plays at the Hustler's 7stud game.

Re: Top AC Players
I consider myself to be one the good poker players in Atlantic City. You can catch me playing 1/2 at Resorts. When I am not at Resorts, I am online at PokerStars playing 2/4 (cent) limit hold-em.

Re: Top AC Players
Chris reslock plays down there a decent amount. I have heard mixed opinions of him but he won a bracelet in stud this year beating Ivey heads up. I haven't seen him play that much to know how good he is.

Is he usually at the Taj or Borgata? |

[/ QUOTE ] QFT - Everyone out here holds her in pretty high regard as far as stud goes, and that's saying a lot considering the status of 7stud in AC. Judging her by how she plays NLHE on TV is like judging Barry Bonds by his outfielding skills. |
Re: Top AC Players
Is there anyone who prefers SHL over SH besides me?
|
Re: Top AC Players
i prefer shl over sh as well, I love nothing more than to see people steam after they get a full house and i have a 2 4 5 8 and we have to split the pot. Its good for like 10-15 bb later from the same guy cause they get so steamed

I do see him on weekends at the borgata in the 150/300 or 200/400 stud and up. While taj has many more mid limit stud games, the borgata i believe offers higher nosebleed stakes. Not sure how high taj limits go but Borgata, at least on weekends spreads all the way to 1000/2000 sometimes. |
Re: Top AC Players
Borgata will spread whatever they can - from what I've seen, when its a 'normal' weekend (nothing in town) its 80/160 holdem, 75/150 stud hi, and the occasional 100/200 mixed. NL its generally 10/25 or 25/50.
When its tournament circuit time, I've seen the 4000/8000 game start. |

He must of gave up poker and went back to driving the taxi. |
Re: Top AC Players
There is one really good asian kid playing the 2/5 and occasionally the 5/10 game at the taj. I heard he studies computer engineering at stony brook.

Re: Top AC Players
Borgata high limit stud has been 100-200 lately instead of 75-150. Previously there had usually been 75-150 and 150-300 stud. Now usually it's 1-2 and something much bigger like 200-400, 300-600 or 400-800. It all depends who is there. Borg also has one 20-40 stud player that has a pleasant crowd of regulars that like to play a lot of hands.
In the mid limit stud arena, Taj has 10-20, 20-40, 40-80 every day. 80-160 stud goes many weekends. Jeff |
Re: Top AC Players
Anyone know the older asian guys that play in the high limit room at the borgataon the weekends? I think they play stud/omaha games
