Default Where to play in AC

I've been playng in AC for a few years now and used to mainly play at the Trop, but since they are under new management the f'ing suck. So now where do I want to play?

OK lets leave out the Borgata because yes it is the nicest poker room / casino / hotel / everything. But their rooms are way to high for me even with the poker rate. I like to play somewhere where I can get a decent room rate during the week as well as on the weekends. At the Borgata you are just another face to them IMO they dont really take care of the poker players. I'm thinking my options are showboat, hilton where I already play a lot but dont like the fact that I cant get a room there on the weekends, and the TAJ but eww their chips are so nasty...lol.

The above options are places I have played, are there any other places that look out for the common peasant of a poker player when it comes to rooms.

The Taj rooms are standard. A little gaudy, but I hear they upgraded a little (true?), and their poker room rate isn't bad (I think ~75).

taj games are good, for the most part.

I would like more info about getting a poker rate at the Taj from anyone who knows a lot about it - what are playing requirements, usual rates, etc?

I know you usually have to have an average of 4 hours of play to be able to get a poker rate on a room. Just talk to a floor person during the week call ahead for a weekend room.

Continue to play at the Trop due to the horrendous players.

It's a very nice room, but their game selection is poor. If you want to play 1/2NL or very low limit, you'll be fine. The dealers aren't the best, but I haven't had any real problems.

Guess It would of prolly helped if I said what limits I was looking for. I play 2/5nl mainly. But thanks for the input so far I'm prolly leaning toward the showboat and Taj. Headed up this week so we'll see how it goes.

I live 2 1/2 hours from A.C. so I go pretty often. The casino I normally play at is Ballys/Wild Wild West. Anyone else play here?
