Not RFB but that would rule

cheap golf (try Mallard Pointe in Sardis, MS).

MP is good, but try Cherokee Valley in Olive Branch, MS (at the Tennessee state line)--much better. Also, Plantation and Wedgewood both in Olive Branch are nice courses as well. They aren't as cheap as MP, but not bad either.

The Grand Casino's course is really nice for a links style course, but expensive if you can't get a comp for it.

I've also played Cherokee Valley twice, and while I liked it, I really love Mallard. It's all in your tastes. I have played Tunica National and enjoyed it, and enjoyed Wedgewood. I have not played Cottonwoods at the Grand due to the cost, but it looks nice.

Never really thought about what I felt like I should get, but the Borg has $2/hour for higher limits e.g. 10/20 but only 50 cents lower limits going into an computerized account accessible immediately with the Borgata card when you swipe out. This money is good as cash for pretty much everything in the hotel (except in the gift shop where it's $2 comp = $1 comp e.g. pack of cigs = $19.50 comp dollars).

Combine it with a $39 weekday room rate w/ 8 hour play $79 w/ four hour play. Weekend poker rate is fixed ~$129 w/ no play requirement. And you know that even a "crappy" room at the Borg is beautiful. You can eat in the high limit room. And the waitresses tend on the hotter and friendlier end of the scale.

Comp dollars expire after 180 days though. Still I was pleasantly surprised by the value and ease of use of the benefits.

I am a limit hold em player exclusively. My expectation is that tracked play should earn me a credit or about 1/4 of the big bet per hour in a limit game. So at 2/4, I would hope to earn at least $1/hr. Also, my play should qualify for some sort of discount on room rates
