Beau Rivage Trip Report

[The Big Easy]

Some stuff I forgot about:

The NL games have a time charge of $6 per dealer down. The PLO games had a collection pot for the rake, but I never really figured out how that exactly works. The limit games (including 20-40) have a max rate of $4.

There is a BBJ, but I am not exactly certain as to what games qualify. I know that the 1/2 NL, 2/5 NL, 4-8, 10-20, and 20-40 games all qualify. I am not sure about the 5/10 NL.

The pokerroom also has safety deposit boxes for you highrollers.

Outside of the pokerroom, I was very surprised at the high number of "high-limit" tables on the main casino floor. There was an entire pit of $100 minimum BJ tables on Sunday afternoon. Hopefully there will be a spillover into the pokerroom, and they will have a large enough player base to consistently spread a variety of mid-stakes and high-stakes games.
