I can't wait until the new poker room opens up in the Revel. That's where we will all be playing soon. [/ QUOTE ] Where is the Revel? Is that the new casino where the Sands used to be? |

[/ QUOTE ] No, Revel is building a casino on the other side of Showboat. Pinnacle is the company building a casino where the Sands used to be. MGM Grand is to build a casino in the Marina distict, and another company (can not remember name right now) is interested in building a casino on the boardwalk north of Hilton. Don't pay attention to any casino revenue numbers now. 2011 and 2012 are the years that are going to be the most important. |

How will they handle this? Any hand that looks likely to qualify, they gather the players' information, and then they contact the winners after the end of the month? That said, sounds like a cool promotion, though I still fear it could be a trial balloon for a real BBJ. |

I think this is definitely a bad idea. However, I would be very surprised if this applies to timed games, esp. with Taj now getting competitive in this area. Taj is competing in every ares besides 40-80 hold em and bigger NL, and I don't think Borg wants to drive any of the bigger players away. Jeff [/ QUOTE ] The Borgata has driven the 20-40 hold'em players back to the Taj by not giving room comps. I didn't think the mid-limit stud players ever really left the Taj. Are you referring to the 80-160 stud game that now seems to be running at the Taj? |

That parcel is zoned for a casino, ever since gambling was legalized in AC. It is the former site of the old AC high School. |

I was told is was being built North of the Hilton (I consider walking toward the Hilton walking north, as the Showboat/Taj area is consider part of the "South Inlet") and that it would replace the Hilton as being the last casino on that end of the Boardwalk. I could be wrong, I'll try to search for the article later. |
