dms26 3 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 I'm doing some research for a trip I'm hoping to take soon. Possibly in September since I want to do it before the weather gets too ugly. Read blog, give feedback please.FL has all the 2/5NL 100 max you can handle. Actually they are supposed to raise that, but I have no idea when/if it will happen. Link to post Share on other sites

Jadaki 0 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Henry, if I get serious about planning this I'll need some suggestions about where I should go for good cash games around Chicago, and obviously I'd have to stop by and get drunk with you one night. Link to post Share on other sites

Plus I've never seen the falls, so good touristy spot to stop too. Link to post Share on other sites

Lots of inexpensive motels near the falls, none more than five minutes from either Fallsview or Casino Niagara on the Canadian side or Seneca on the US side. Link to post Share on other sites

bleacherbum3 9 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 So why does the rebidding process happen? is it a scheduled time? When they feel like it?With the economy as shitty as it is, they're trying to trim labor hours off the schedule so they've been playing around with the shifts a lot.On the last rebid, they made a lot of the daytime shifts start slightly later, but we still have too many dealers standing on dead games during the morning and early afternoon.We're just not as busy as we used to be and management doesn't want dealers opening tables if nobody's there to play. Plus, it drags down the toke rate.Yesterday, they removed 2 tables from the pit (1 BJ and 1 3-card) to make room for the poker room expansion (Poker room is going from 6 tables to 8).

bleacherbum3 9 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Maybe he can throw to himself too!No legit receiving corps in Chicago and I don't count Devin Hester as a legit receiver, he's just the best of a sorry bunch. ^^^thisFirst of all I have no idea how they let Jay Cutler go and I'll give you props he is a great QB and it will be interesting to watch him play this year, but I'm not sure he has the support he needs to be successful.and OH HAI VADE!That could be very true. I was being over the top to make fun of most of the city that wants to build a statue of this guy already who hasn't even thrown a pass in a real Bears game yet.Maybe I'm just not used to having an actual QB after years and years of crappiness at the position. I guess we'll find out if he can really make the WR's better.I'm cautiously optimistic about the offense. It's only Hester's 2nd season as a full-time receiver, and I think Olson (TE) will have a big year. I'm more worried about injuries and our pass defense giving up 30 points/game.

You'd log a lot of miles on that itinerary, but you could also hit a lot of poker rooms you haven't played in.Hitting places like AC, Foxwoods, Tunica, and Commerce in one trip sounds awesome.

dna4ever 2 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 and with Vic as a backup..........lol I saw he was in Chicago and was like WTF and I noticed the Bears put out a statement almost immediately that they were not entertaining any relationship with himGlad this said Teen else I would have been searching for Tim Fryer on the interwebz news sites"Teen Sets Self On Fire To Imitate YouTube Clip" Link to post Share on other sites

Plus there is a chance I wouldn't be going alone, so the driving/expenses would be split. Link to post Share on other sites

Plus there is a chance I wouldn't be going alone, so the driving/expenses would be split.4 hours a day for 30 days straight is INSANNNNNNNNNNNNITYEvery time you skip driving a day to stay in a place you would be like well now I got at least 8 hours on 1 day. Ugh, now way I could do that regardless of how many people were with me. Link to post Share on other sites
bleacherbum3 9 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Henry, if I get serious about planning this I'll need some suggestions about where I should go for good cash games around Chicago, and obviously I'd have to stop by and get drunk with you one night.No question, for Chicagoland you'd want to hit Horseshoe Casino in Hammond Indiana. Just over the Indiana border, it's about an hour from where I live, but only 20 min from the city. 30+ tables, and they run tourneys 3 days a week. They also have WSOP circuit events there, but I don't think that's until mid-late Oct. Link to post Share on other sites

Ugh, now way I could do that regardless of how many people were with me.We wouldn't be driving every day, it would be like every other or every 3rd day for 8-10 hours. Trying to roughly plan each stop after 8 hours of driving, the one spot I'm not sure about is between AC and Tampa, but I think a stop at Myrtle Beach would be cool and there is a casino in that area too.
