No better way to spend a delay.

P.S. I realize that it's duty-free only because they deliver it to you on the plane, and hence the above idea is absurd. I just liked the thought of internet poker-stars faking itineraries so they could multi-table in airports.

First time I've ever heard the Canadian Maritimes referred to as the bible belt. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

I played for 3 hours in the Atlanta airport upstairs in a little 'rent a room' place. It cost me $60 to rent it, but I think I won about $50--so I was only down $10. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I was actually a little to embarrased to multi-table. I stuck to 1 5/10 6max. If I got 4 going it might have attracted a crowd.

As it was already, this one dude kept walking by, each time trying to get a better peak. I think he wanted to ask what I was doing but I spotted his tell a mile away and put headphones on.

Anyhow, wireless net is catching on in unsuspecting places and it's really cool!

What airports have this for free?

I tried it in RDU last month and had to pay $10 for it.

McCarren in Vegas has free Wi-Fi.

I was so psyched that my flight was delayed leaving last week. However, there must have been some firewall issue going on, because Party wasn't loading (although maybe that was when they were changing their servers (Monday evening, approx. 7PM eastern).
