Can I at least say if it was boxers or briefs? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Looks like I may be heading down either Saturday the 10th or Sunday the 11th.

You've gotten a fair amount of not-so-good information. The game is hyper aggressive, and some of the players are ridiculously sharp. 10k losses is a session are very common, even among the game's top players. Sometimes people think the game looks great because of all of the action, but some of the players are very correct in playing more hands, because their reads are so sick. The quality of the game on any given day (as with most games) depends on how many if any donators are in, and how bad they are playing. Not being a regular will leave you at a disadvantage due to the fact that the regulars will know which tactical plays will work against which players, and which won't. For example, in O and E, many pots demand you isolate or fold. They'll know whether isolating will work, and you won't, leaving them always making the right play, while you often effectively "carve yourself up" by putting in extra bets in failed attempts to isolate, or cheat yourself by not isolating when you could've. For these reasons, several internet players have tried this game, and many find it very frustrating.

The games goes from 3-6 days a week, often starting between 6 and 8 pm. It's very hard to predict when it will go. It can run past dawn, or break early. It's usually short. It's almost always O-E, less frequently H-O-E. The good news is, the 20-40 HE and stud games both run daily, and are both usually very good games. The bad news is, Foxwoods is a very poorly run poker room (many say the worst anywhere), doesn't deserve your business, and will treat you like a dog.

Good luck. Maybe you'll be there on a day with a donator, and you'll actually get some of his money.

i really couldnt disagree with this post more, the regulars are bad, played it today actually, great game as always for 75-150. way better than AC hi gaems.

Well, let's not mislead anyone here... you probably agree with MOST of the facts from my post, right (times, days, games, 20-40, etc.)? If you say the regulars are bad, OK. I really just said a few are good. But what about all of the other stuff I said? I don't mind at all if you disagree with me, but perhaps folks would benefit more if you were more specific about which things I said that you disagree with.

Relating to another post, I agree.... I can't believe that guy didn't reraise with a big hand like T652. [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]
