Default Foxwoods or AC (Borgata)

Is there really any reason to ever go to Foxwoods over AC (Borgata)? I can't find any good reasons. Driving distance/time not a factor.

Foxwoods is better for limit, AC is a NL/tournaments town. Foxwoods has a bigger poker room (slightly) than Borgata. I think generally the play is worse at foxwoods.

I've never played at Foxwoods, but there is plenty of limit hold'em in AC.

Borgata is significantly better than Foxwoods. Tournaments are better (more options in AC).

The only advantage Foxwoods has is cheaper hotel rooms on the weekend. No-limit is awesome in AC and the players are equally horrible in both places.

Foxwoods seems to have more college age kids.

Going to AC you also have quick access to Ceasar's, Bally's, Harrah's, Tropicana, Showboat, Taj ect ... you are not locked into 1 casino ...

The Woods also has at least 30 tables going so your easy-access game selection is much larger.

Obviously I meant there's no limit in AC, obviously.


No, what I meant is that Foxwoods generally spreads more limit, and there's more people who want to play it, and they're worse at it, than in AC (Borgata) in my experiance. Borgata players seem to like NL cash games more than limit, and are probably worse at it.
