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

As far as tournaments are concerned, Taj has twice daily $100-300 freezeouts, with big turnouts that their big rooms can accomadate. Borgata has a $40 rebuy in the morning a $60 rebuy in the evening and a $500 freezeout on Fridays. Tropicana has daily rebuys or freezeouts that sell out early. Showboat has twice daily $50 slow structure and no ante with a fairly small tournament. Caesars has daily very fast structure (blinds generally double every level and ante is 1/2 of SB, so you may have four players allin preflop), bad players, and low turnout tournaments. Harrahs has 3 a week $100-$500 buyin slow structure, small turnout. Sands has 4 a week freezout or rebuys. Ballys has 2 a week freezeout no ante.

I don't really notice big differences in the level of players in the tournaments. Most of them aren't very good. Rebuys attract more aggressive players than freezeouts, but the play in general is less wild and more weak/tight than online. In the $200-$500 tournaments, you have some grinder pros, but some of the fish are just as fishy as lower levels.

Borgata, Taj, and others have major tournaments with various side events and supersatllites.

In general, the tournament action has picked up since you were gone.

Welcome back.
