Re: Status of the Trop ?
I've never had a problem with the bathrooms at the Trop...maybe it's just the men's rooms? What are you people doing in there?

I really like the Trop, they're really good about poker rate rooms, the dealers are good, I don't think it's that dirty, I mean, if you're still playing at the right time you see them vacumn, and the...

So according to NJ state regulations, one of the poker games AC card rooms are authorized to spread is Mambo stud. I had never heard of this game till I read the act, and was wondering if anyone had...

Re: Another \"who gets kicked in the nutz\"
Having played alot of live Omaha 8/b, cards talk like hell, but only once they've been turned up. This seems a bit borderline, since he tried to table his hand. I would say, don't interfere, but...

Re: Card protectors
It really doesn't matter if a card protector is heavy or not, unless it's a matter of personal preference. In the AC regulations at least, if you have a chip on your cards, or they are otherwise...

Re: 1/2 NL Grinder
The one thing I've always wondered about for the lowish stakes pro is health insurance. Covered under your gf's plan? Or just going without? I'm probably a bit paranoid, but it always seemed a big...

Re: \"Don\'t answer that phone, sir!\"
Isn't it easy enough to turn the phone to vibrate, finish the hand, look to see who called, and call them back? It's not like hands take hours to play. Even if you're playing a draw game you'll...

Re: Inappropriate Dealer Conduct?
I'm sure the other guy in the hand remembers that you bet $12 on the flop, so the comment had no impact on the play of the hand. Dealer was probably bored. The Trop is awesome, and I've never had a...

Re: Any tips on dealing with smoke?
I heard one of the reasons Johhny Chan started carrying around an orange is that the smell helps with smoke. Don't know how well it works, but worth a try.

Re: is this a raise
I think at the Trop, putting out an amount that is greater than the original bet by more than half the original bet counts as a min raise, though I've seen rulings go different ways.

At these stakes everyone's going to call your raise, so unless you hit the flop pretty hard you're basically building a pot for someone else. If you have a good enough hand you want to raise the...

Re: Bummed about new Borgata poker rates
I'm never going to be able to stay at the Borg again, since I never remember to clock out my stupid card. I hate that system. Between the Borgata and the Taj I'm missing hundreds of hours.
