Default Borgata SNGs?

{Well, I got no help from the 1TT forum. Maybe you guys can help?}

Just wondering if any of you have played the sit-n-gos at The Borgata. What are they like? Which SNGs on PokerStars would you say they're comparable to? Any tips?

Thanks in advance.

Some at SSNL think that live 200NL can be as bad as 25NL online. I was hoping for a response like that. Thanks anyway.

$1/2,$2/4 NL Atlantic City cash games, from my experience are horrific. People play every King or Ace to a raise and they cant get off top pair. They have no problem calling large all ins on the turn with just a straight draw.

Then there is the other type of Atlantic City player. He being that of the over 50 year old that buys in for $50 and sits on his money the whole time.

It really is a goldmine if you dont get unlucky.

As much as I am a tournament fant, if you want to go, see cards, and make money in AC: sit at a NL table, buy in for the max, play the nuts from early position, get in cheap from late position. And pump the heck out of any good flop. Be willing to lose some money because if you are you will leave up.

I like playing SNGs as a change of pace, but the fee is a bit high. Maybe I'll just stick with the cash games.
