Also, how does NL work at Foxwoods? What is the max buy in? and do they charge a rake or charge you per hour?

If you show up at noon on a Saturday or Sunday, plan to wait at least 45 minutes to get a seat at $2/4. On busy weekends you may wait two hours or more. My recommendation is to get there at 11 AM or earlier and get sat down, then let everyone queue up behind you.

For no-limit, Foxwoods has two cash NL hold'em games: a $5-5 blinds $200 minimum buyin game and a $1-2 blinds $100 maximum buyin game. Both are time charge, but I'm not sure what the rate is since I'm not an NL player.

Kelvin-

During the summer the lines were getting long - 2-3 hrs on the weekend. I think it has eased up a bit - you should always try to get to FW before the new tables are added on the weekend - I think that happens around 11:00. The new computerized board is a little frustrating because the screen only shows the next twenty names - ask where you are on the list when you sign up.

Good luck and be patient. 2-4 at F-W can be very loose at times with some bad beats but in the long run this can be a very profitable game.

It's $5 per half hour for the $100 max game. For which I had to wait about two hours one weekend.

If your asking about this weekend, remember that the World Poker Finals are in town (thru Nov 17th) and this will increase your wait time drastically.
Last weekend I got on the 4/8 list at 109 and an hour and a half later I was 93rd on the list.
