Re: looking for a quick Chicago/Gary update
[/ QUOTE ] Yeah, I know. I'm there to play cards, though, and don't have a car, either. I didn't venture off the boat/outside the hotel property last time I was there, and I don't plan to this time, either. -McGee [/ QUOTE ] I guess not. Seeing as how there is nothing around those boats but Lake Michigan and parking spaces.

Re: looking for a quick Chicago/Gary update
Does anyone know if poker rates are available at Resorts or Majestic Star place, and if so, what they are and how I go about getting them? I called last night and they connected me to the poker room, and everyone I talked to seemed mystified.

Re: looking for a quick Chicago/Gary update
Majestic star had a good poker rate of $45/night, but that was when they were still Trump. Resorts poker rate is not available during the weekend, and it's more than $45 anyway (don't remember exactly how much).

Re: looking for a quick Chicago/Gary update
Thanks, iron. I noticed that the room is twice as expensive at Resorts.
On the one hand, it seems silly to spend twice as much for a room that I am not going to be spending much time in. On the other hand, I've never been to Resorts and I like trying out new rooms. Are the games at one place noticeably better than the other? Also, I know that Majestic Star will pick me up in Chicago and drop me off in Chicago. Is that true of Resorts? -McGee

Re: looking for a quick Chicago/Gary update
Dunno about better, both places spread different games. Resorts is much more of a mid limit room, the only game they compete over is small stakes limit. Go to Majestic Star for small stakes and high stakes NL, go to Resorts for Mid Stakes Limit. As for transportation, Resorts has an excellent bus network. Google Resorts Transportation to get schedules.

The regular 10/25 NL game is now being spread regularly on Fridays at Resorts and has pulled the older players from the Trump game over...and although not high limit, the 5/10 game is usually bigger than most NL games at Majestic Star II. Of course, I agree that Majestic Star II is the place to go for small stakes limit and NL games.
