A few Turning Stone Questions
 

I'm gonna be up at Turning Stone during the weekend of Aug 31st and I have a few questions about the casino.

What are the waiting lists usually like for the 1-2 and 2-4 NL games? What's the best way to make sure you get a seat at a table in a reasonable time frame?

What are the sitting fees for the low stakes NL tables? Do they just rake the pot or charge an hourly rate?

What kind of play can I expect at Turning Stone? This is my first time going to a decent sized casino so I really don't know what to expect.

Lastly, where's the best play to eat at Turning Stone? I'm looking for something that's not too expensive and hopefully pretty filling (aka Buffet)

Anything else I should bring or know before I depart on my trip?

Thanks so much for your help guys I really appreciate it.

For lunch go to Wildflowers in the lodge for their kobe beef burger.

For dinner, you have to do Rodizio's at least once.

Why do you keep making threads about Turning Stone? The place is a dump in the middle of nowhere, thats all you need to know.

I apologize for being a young guy who's excited for his first trip to a major casino. You don't have to go around trashing people's threads being a jerk if you don't have any legit info to add.

The buffet there is actually really good, its not Bellagio or Wynn but its miles ahead of Foxwoods.

Actually, I was serious. The casino is quite nice, they've done a ton of work over the past 11+ years. If that's being a jerk, trashing other's threads, so be it.

Ahh you replied to my post is why I thought you were talking to me. Quotes FTW [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Btw, no 2/4 NL there. I believe it's 1/2 are the 100/200 buy in games and the 2/5 was 300/500 buy in games when I was there in November last year. Waited 3 hours saturday AM and never moved more than 3 places on the list, over 20+ names around noon and they woulnd't open more games, yet the dealer lineups were all 2 or 3 tables. I was confused to say the least. I hope this has gotten better.

Can you phone ahead to join the waitlist? Like if you're on your way to the room can you call?
