Re: derby lane
Enjoy 4-2 but I wouldn't recommend the tourney at Derby due to the discussed structue, just my opinion but it sucked before and now it's simply unplayable!
Silks at Tampa Downs has tourneys at 6:30 when the horses run, they also spread 1/2 like Derby and like Hard Rock. Enjoy with the rest of the snowbirds! And unfortunately Silks was closed yesterday but open today, trip report to follow...lol |

ME >I live in Venice, and I am planning on heading to your area on >>Wednesday. I've been to Derby Lane a couple of times for tournaments, >>but some acquaintances let me know of your card room, and told me that >>your tournament structure is much better. I would love to give it a >>try! So I have some questions for you. >> >>1) In your tournaments, how many starting chips, what do the blinds >>start at, and how often do they go up? >> >>2) Do you have a tournament schedule available? Or is it simply NL >>Hold 'Em tournaments at noon and 6:30 every day? >> >>3) What is the max # of entrants per tournament? Or is there no max? >> >>4) On a typical weekday, what time do I need to be at the track in >>order to secure a seat in the noon tournament? Do they usually sell >>out? It's a long drive, and I don't want to get there only to find out >>that I can't play (happened several times at Derby) >> >>5) During the week, do the single table tournaments run frequently? >> >>6) Do you have internet access available at your facility? >> >>Thanks a bunch, and I hope to see you next week!

Re: derby lane
Yup, they've changed their structure too and of course it's bad for the players! [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]
And yes, they're only open when they run the horses, odd but that's the scoop. Got a couple of good hands paid off early and played great poker overall but down to 30 people, top 9 paid out of 118 runners, with 259k chips in play, the average stack was 10k, 5xbbs....WTF??? |
