Default Borgata - Memorial Day Weekend

What's the Borgata going to be like this weekend? Packed with regulars or tourist gamboolers?

I'm heading down for Satrday and Sunday nights.

Everyone in PA who owns a shore house will be there for what looks like a gorgeous weekend.

Even resorts was packed last year. I can only imagine the Borgata is going to be a madhouse. Get there early (8-9am) if you plan on going.

Played BJ at the table across from James Gandolphini and Michael Imperioli Sat night. Pretty cool. It was a $200 min and Gandolphini kept playing $50...he didn't seem too into it and left quickly while his posse stuck around. When he walked out past the new club the peolple waiting in line to get in went wild cheering.

It really depends what you are playing. If it's 1-2 NL or 2-5 or whatever, there could be very long waits. For bigger games, the wait won't be nearly as long. But yes, it will be packed and the action will be good.

I remember a few years ago, I NEVER missed holiday weekends b/c the action was so good. But lately, every weekend is like a holiday weekend down there in terms of action so this week I'm hanging out with friends who are coming here instead. First Memorial day I've missed in AC in awhile. GL - I'm sure the tables will be jumping.

Two weeks ago on a Saturday night I was playing 5/10 NL at Borgata, and we had to make it a 5-10-20 (dead straddle of 20) NL game because there was so little action in the game. At least half the players were either pros, regulars, and 2 + 2ers. Is there more action in limit games like 40/80 and 80/160? The past couple times I have played 5/10 on Saturday nights the games were nothing to write home about.

I'm going down there either Saturday or Sunday for a little 2/5 or 5/10 NL. From what I hear the 2/5s are super soft, but it sounds like the 5/10 is hit or miss. Are the waits really going to be that awful? What about other games like 2/4 LHE (for the girlfriend) or 20/40 LHE? Also are they likely to have any mixed games this weekend?
