Default Daily tournaments in Atlantic City

Howdy-
To any AC regulars out there - where are the best daily NLHE tournaments?

I have looked at the different AC casinos' webpages, so I know the schedules...who has what, when, etc. What I don't know is which tournaments are generally regarded as the 'softest', best/worst structure, etc.

Any and all information is welcomed.
Thanks-
edwardo

The daily tournaments at the Taj have the best structure because you get 5000 starting chips. You still need to find a way to get some chips early with 20 minute rounds....

Not to mention antes after the second level. The Taj makes Party's blind structure look like the WSOP. I seriously doubt that the daily poker tournaments in AC are worth your time.

Thanks to both of you-

So, I assume the Borg 6/12 would be one of the best uses of my time? 1/2NL also?

Just trying to find the softest, fishiest games-
Thanks.

The daily Taj tournament is a bit of a crapshoot yes, but they are fun and inexpensive. Ante kicks in at level 3 whichi is kinda nuts. the structure can be found at http://www.trumptaj.com/casino/daily...ts/default.asp but the level 1 should read 25/50 instead of 15/50.

6/12 at Borgata and 4/8 at Trop are probably the fishyest games you'll find at the mid-low limits (not 2/4 or 3/6).

If you choose the 6/12 at Borgata, get there early.

I've played in a few tournaments at the Trop, and unless you're the really lucky type they arent much fun. It's basically an all-in fest during the rebuy/add-on period.

The no rebuy tournys at the Trop on the otherhand are great. I play the Saturday one pretty often. In fact I played with a friend last weekend, I was 19th and he won it.

Every tournament at the Borg is rebuy now which is why I no longer play any there. It is my favorite place to play cash games though. 6/12 is pretty fishy. I've even found 10/20 to be surprisingly fishy.
