I've played their Wednesday night tourney twice. It was decently run -- felt like a well organized home-game tourney. Competition was all over the board. Mostly poor players with a few solid players mixed in. The Saturday tourney buy-ins are higher so that may bring a different crowd.

I think the juice is REALLY high b/c a portion goes to charity.

Cash games are $2 / street, max of 4 raises, rake $4 so its pretty awful.

Yeah, their cash games looked to have a larger than usual rake. But their tournaments pay out 75-80% from what I saw, which is right on target with Foxwoods (their $45+$15 or $80+$20 tournies)

Plus, you get more starting chips in the New Hampshire tourney than you would in the Foxwoods weeklies. And Foxwoods is 100 miles for me, while these NH tournies are about 52 miles.

and the morning tournies at Foxwoods are populated with more "regulars" and stronger players since they're in the morning, and most fish come out after their 9-5 jobs end. So playing on a weekend should provide plenty of fish in the tournies.

I definetely have to check these out, thanks for the reply.
