no Black Borg card, no comps.......period [/ QUOTE ] Maybe no upgrades, but comps are certainly available. My fiancee got the room free (two nights) playing $15 blackjack and quarter slots about six times in a three-month period. We also got Cafeteria comps and our comp dollars. |

[/ QUOTE ] does this apply to all limits, even 1/2? i usually only play 1/2 and i usually do at the taj ive gotten about 15-20 hours at taj and although its their busy season they seem to care less about helping me get any comp room or food. i really like the poker room there though but borgata is nice too. are they easy to get food/room comps from or should i stick with taj and just need more hours? |

[/ QUOTE ] Somebody told me that it was 500 comp dollars worth of play. So 2/4 would take 1000 hours, everything else 500 hours (up until whatever limits start giving you more). But this was a random drunk sitting next to me, so I'd take it with a bucket of salt. |

Re: Front Desk Tip at Borgata?
My friend tried this once. Clerk took the $20 and didn't give the upgrade. Second hand info, and I have no idea why he didn't raise hell and demand the $20 back.

[/ QUOTE ] It'd be pretty tacky to raise hell and demand your money back, since officially the $20 is just a tip presented simultaneously with your ask, and not actually a fee for a service the clerk failed to render. If you can afford to stay at the Borgata, you can afford to not make a scene over $20. |
