I've played a tourney there, but have yet to handle the regular chips. I'm curious if they really are as dirty as people say.

I like the Taj. It's less polished and sterile than Borg and has that good old hardcore gambling atmoshphere about it. I also prefer the lighting. And oh yea, the action can be disgustingly good. It's the first place I played in AC and I still give it regular action (as well as Borg of course).

I love the Taj.

It has a sort of charm to it. It feels old school to me. As dumb as that sounds.

As far as chips go they suck. They are dirty and nasty; and if you don't wash your hands I feel you might get heptitis b. The poker snack bar sucks. Terrible food. The regular players their are mainly degenerates who donate tons of money and also are homeless. That being said the lighting does alot for me. It was also the first place I ever played at. I like the majority of the dealers their as well.

All I can say is the taj will always have a place in my heart.

I feel much more comfortable playing at the Taj for some odd reason.

Thats where I always play when im in town. Of course, its closer to my girlfriend's place than the Borg... so I end up there basically by default.

I play at Borgata when I hit AC, and will tolerate some time at Trop every now and then to get into their Pink Chip game. Taj, to me, is a waste of time. At the limits I play, the action is no better or worse than at the other two places (6/12 LHE, 1/2 & 2/5 NLHE). Taj essentially disbanded the one game I really liked there (5/10 full kill O/8). For higher stakes players like Jeffage, I understand the desire to hit taj. Likewise for stud players. But for your average low limit hold'em player, I see no reason to go there. It smells moldy. The waitresses are NOT hot. The drinks are nasty. The chips likely host strains of the avian flu virus or other unsavory bacterial elements. The televisions are small & poorly placed. I could go on, but I won't.
