Foxwoods dying out?

BoogerFace · #1 10-17-2005, 09:07 AM

I played last monday and yesterday (Sunday) and was really surprised that there were no lists either days. Monday was a holiday, so I though that it was just an off day.

I'm used to it being a madhouse with 1+ hour waits on the weekends. Is this the beginning of the end for Foxwoods?

Foxwoods might not always be a "madhouse" - but it will always have tons and tons of games, even if the low-limit NL games are growing at a faster rate than the limit ones.

I realize this. I was just wondering if this was a general trend, I usually only make it down to the 'woods about once a month.

If that's the case AND you want to maximize the number of people there, make it on Friday night or Saturday ... IF you can wake up Saturday early enough, getting there < 9am is often the ultimate pimp move.

Thanks, I'll probably give an early Sat AM session a shot.

How so? Less wait I'm sure, but wouldn't the games be juicier at night?

you're forgetting that 9am saturday is the darkest, most hungover part of a good friday night at the woods. look for the disheveled guys that smell like last night's gin.

It was the last time I was there, maybe a month ago.

There's now a 2-5 with, I think a $300 max buy in but I don't believe it replaced the 1-2

Hey I was there Thursday and the 2-5 NL is a 300 min 500 max with a $6 half hour charge. The 1-2NL is a 40 min 100 max game with a $5 half hour charge. Maybe one day they will restructure the 1-2NL to 100 min 200 max.
