Coming back from Iraq, whats the scene like in AC these days?
 

I've been away from AC for a while, serving in the army in iraq for the past year, and i'm about to come back in another month or so. Where are the good 10-20 games now? I used to play mostly at the borgata, b/c i loved the atmosphere, but i've played extensively everywhere(i only live an hour and a half from AC). I also have a lot of fun playing live tournaments. I can look up the schedules online, but how are the turnouts? And what's the level of play like these days?
Also, i've heard there are some new/expanded cardrooms, too. Any and all comments are welcome, i'm just trying to get back in the loop.

Thanks to All,

borgata 10/20 is still good i think (although i've moved on to 20/40 which is almost as good as the 10/20) and that's really the only place i play so i can't speak on any other casinos.

welcome home!

Playing in the weekly tourney at the rec center for fun...Have been in a few small games. Mostly for pride tho...*)

There are some more small card rooms, more places have tournaments and 1/2 NL.

For 10/20 holdem, it's about the same, Borgata or Taj and Tropicana weekend nights. Since there are a lot a new card rooms, there is less wait for games at Borgata.

Just played the Borgata 10/20 today and it was very good.

Seriously, to your tourney questions, the turnouts are pretty solid at the Taj and Borg. dailys, esp. weekends... some of the others are still stuggling (last time I went to the trop their saturday was low, but that may have changed...) Tourney play level: Wow. I'd say you're at 50% donk, 50% feesh. The 300 on Saturday night at the taj is mostly weak-tight, and I've heard the Borg Sunday morning, which has pretty slow blinds for a daily, is an allin fest.

Hows that game at rec center? I may swing by if its juicy enough!
