Borgata Poker Rate--need help NOW please
So I exchanged a couple emails with some deuche at Borgata to find out about hte poker room rate. I explained that me + friends plan to spend this weekend there playing assloads of poker, and that we will easily satisfy the time-played requirement of 8 hrs/day or whatever. But they replied that I have to establish play before qualifying for the poker rate, and I've never stayed at the Borgata nor do I have a player's club account going yet. Does that mean that the first time to visit you have to play full cost for the room? Or can you just show up, play a crapload, and get the reduced rate on the first visit?
I asked the host this, of course, but this jacker did not seem to understand plain english. thanks in advance |

Yes, you need prior play. No poker rate for you!! Besides which I doubt they'd have any poker rooms left...

Crap. I was afraid of that. Well, do you have any recommendations for a relatively cheap room in AC? We'll probably only get the room for one night since we'll play all night Friday... hopefully looking for somewhere < $200/night.

The Comfort Inn in Absecon is pretty cheap, clean, and about a 4 minute car ride to the Borgata

I got a Super 8 in Absecon off one of the discount sites for about $60 for a Friday night.
It was reserved about a month in advanced, but still a great deal.. Even though it was a dump. |

i had the same phone call about a month ago for next friday night. assured them my group will easily clear any minimums, yet they wouldn't budge. kinda rediculous, but thats what it is. i ended up getting a friday night at the showboat for like 180ish.

Be careful with that Borgata Poker rate
Even worse thing that happened to me and my friends-
They gave us the Poker rate at the Borgata, we checked out, and after comps ended up paying just $2.58 for our room. Then the put a charge for $208 on my buddies credit card. Such horse crap, better triple check before you believe anything they tell you. |
