AC-Showboat Tournie Information

Hi. Anyone ever played the daily tournaments at Showboat? Do they have a decent turn out? Any information on starting chips would be nice, too.

I checked out their website but I didn't find anything but times.

Thanks!

i'm def gonna check it out when im in AC for new years

Do they still have the red felt on the tables ? I haven't been there since August.

The one interesting thing about their tourneys is, no antes.

They still have some of those ugly tables in the back, but the main tables they use now are a pleasant green...and they're not quite as firm, which is a bit nicer.

I've been once to AC (about three weeks ago) and played the Sunday 11am at Showboat. They had about 50 playes and ran the tourney well. 7 got paid. Don't have to get there too early to register as the card room on Sunday AM isn't all that busy, and they have plently of tables available.
