No, there are bigger games at the Borgata. They run 5/10 and 10/25 NL games regularly. And maybe once or twice a week they even run a 25/50 NL game. I wouldn't sit in the big one unless you've got some serious experience though, there are often some big names in that game.

On weekends, they have 10/20 NL at Tropicana. I have seen 50/100 PLHE at the Taj, but I don't think it is a regular thing.

some kid who was a 'regular' at Taj said 2/5 is the biggest game in AC. that's ridiuclous, needless to say.

He jerked your chain. $2-$5 no limit is sometime the biggest game that the Taj spreads.

When the WPT visited town in September the Borgata spread a $50-$100 no limit game that went every day. Jim Miller, Amir Vahedi and other "celebrities" played in it.

who plays the big games that is well known?

I do not play the big games, and I certainly am not well known, however I have played next to the big game. I would say Jason V is the best known player who plays in the big games.

The Borgata now spreads $25-$50 and $10-$25 no limit as their biggest game. The Trop spreads $10-$20 no limit as their biggest game. The Taj sometimes spreads $5-$10 no limit, otherwise $2-$5 is their biggest game.

There are some good players that play the 10-25 but I don't know if they are known names.
I'll be at the Borg tonight. I won't play it (I never have) but I'll find out what the max buy in is for the 25/50 game.

I play NL at the Taj, Trop and Borg, and the biggest games are at the Borg. They will spread almost any game if there is enough interest. The 10/25 game has a cap of 5K, the 25/50 game has no cap. I have played in both games and not seen any 'big' names', although i did hear that things were different in Sept. during the WPT. Contrary to what some folks may think the cap has a huge impact on a game, if i could sit in a 2/5 game with 5K, I would be able to bully the entire table as i can break any and everyone in one hand. even if someone doubles through me twice, i would still have them covered, i have seen some LAGs go on a rush at 2/5 and win 2K and then proceed to push around the entire table, sometimes raising 10 hands in a row making it impossible to put them on a hand and allowing them to hit weird two pair hands and stack players with one big pair. i for one wouldn't sit in a game if someone had 1K x BB, and i didn't.
