whats the deal here? just reserved a poker rate for next thursday and the chick on the phone said it'd be 100 even. i mention i heard something about $40 and she tells me the normal rate for thursday is 170 and i'm getting it discounted at 100. i don't get this, could somebody please explain?//??

4 hours of poker play gets you a rate of $69 (i'm not real sure about this number....), and 8 hours of play gets you $39. plus tax.

um, is that this coming thursday? if so its a holiday weekend

That is the rate for a weekday holiday.

Aren't there other places where 4 hours gets you a better rate? If you can find a better one, play the minimum there and then go to the Borg for the rest.

I'd call them and verify, that doesn't seem correct. You should get the weekday rate based on hours played. They may have confused the weekends.

Have you called back?

nah not yet, seems the general consensus here is that i'm getting the reservation for 100 and then after i play the 8 hours, they knock 60 off my bill? i'm heading down there sometime this weekend and am gonna talk it over with the floor just to be sure. thanks for the help though.

avid,

if you reserve a poker rate, do they quote you a price on the phone at $40?

Did you call the poker room to make the rezo, or did you go through normal chanels? I call the poker room directly to get the rates.
