Default Foxwoods on Friday: when to arrive?

For you Foxwoods regulars: I'm planning a trip up to Foxwoods tomorrow and wondering when's a good time to arrive. I've heard that during the day on weekdays the games can be somewhat rockish, and that by Friday night games are good but the waitlist is insane. Ideally I'd like to arrive at sometime in between those two options [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

What games are you planning to play? On Fridays I try to get there by 4:00pm at the absolute latest, but usually I'll arrive around 2:00pm.

2:00 am.

If your schedule permits, I would considering playing quite late. Stay till around "last call," and you'll get a lot of very loose and sometimes very incoherent players. The games will be higher variance but with above average EV.

The games are much more rockish in the afternoons/mornings. If you play through the night (I've done this many times) be prepared to alter your game come Saturday morning.

Whoops, sorry. We'll probably be donking around the 2/4 - 4/8 range. Most of us play 1/2 online and don't really have the roll or stomach to play higher yet [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I should have mentioned we'd be playing the baby tables since I don't know if this affects people's responses; the one time I've been to the woods was 2/4 during Saturday afternoon, which was had plenty of loosey-gooseys. After hearing about the crazy drunken Friday night antics we thought it might be fun to try being there on a Friday evening for our second trip [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

It wasn't the times I was there in Jan.-May this year. Lists have gotten shorter recently. I doubt summer would change much.

By the way, I may well be at Foxwoods tonight (or AC, or neither... not sure). Listen up for a Sup Bro if you're playing 10-20 or 20-40.
