Default Re: Bad Beat Jackpot at Tropicana Atlantic City

A Borgata dealer said the Borgata doesn't want a BBJ because it invites a 'carvinal atmosphere.' (I don't know how true this is). She did mention that Trop was going to start one.

The carnival atmosphere is about the last thing a bbjp will bring to a room. Excalibur's wheel brings a carnival atmosphere. Large bbjps bring in the tight, whiny, coffee/cigarette breath walkers who complain that a tourist (who foolishly came to play poker) is breathing their friggin' air. So the choice to not have a bbjp may be a good choice, but the reason quoted to you is purely bullpucky.

They never have, and they will be the last place to have one.
