Men the Hellmuth 0 Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Hello guys, i was just curious how many FCP'ers here are from NY and the surrounding areas. im usually in Atlantic city and Foxwoods all the time ( about 3-4 times a month ) so i was curious to see how many of you all frequent those establishments and how often. who knows maybe we can meet up sometime. Let me know. Link to post Share on other sites

I'll be at Foxwoods this weekend for the first time. Maybe I'll see some FCPers there, though hopefully not at my tables.Foxwoods on a weekend is brutal. Long waits for the games and very crowded. like i said before, i love the weekdays. Link to post Share on other sites
tylerc 0 Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 i live in boston but usually at foxwoods on mondays or tuesdays playing the 5/10 kill. i played the O8 2/4 there once and wanted to tear my eyes out of my skull the play was so slow. no one had any idea what they had, and it took like twenty minutes a hand for the dealer to sort out what the eight callers had at the end.

tylerc 0 Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 i think i mentioned the forum when i was talking about that strange game daniel wrote about. if i was staying the night i would have stayed. that table was pretty fun, even though i only played like five hands. i really havent been that card dead in a while. i caught a lot more hands on the 5/10, but i wasnt playing very well. i think i was talking too much to that tool on my right. he wouldnt shut up about how long he had been playing and how he is writing a poker book. what a unique idea. when are you going back? i was thinking of going this sunday and monday.

KDawgCometh 2 Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 I'm in central NJ for the next few months. I've also been meaning(and being a general lazy *** about it) getting a decent home game going at my place. The only reason I don't get down to AC that much because I lack a car. I played when I could in NYC before all of the busts that have happened Link to post Share on other sites
supertouch 0 Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 i'm from long island. i try to get down to AC 1 or 2 times a month. heading up to syracuse tonight for the turning stone tourny. i've never played there before so i'm interested to see what it's like.as for foxwoods, i haven't been there since december, i try to stop there on my way to boston to visit family, so who knows the next time i'll get there. but the waits are pretty insane.

thrillsoft 0 Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 I'm organizing a NYC local FCP group to get together, got out for drinks, put together home games, etc. We've got 3 people so far. PM me if you want to be on the list. Link to post Share on other sites
armen13 0 Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 Sunday is tough for me because i help run a local game here where i live, which is why i dont usually go out on monday either because i sleep late. but who knows i might be able to make it out there monday sometime. so maybe you can change your plans by one day, it would work out then, come monday leave tuesday...I may be going down there this Sunday. It will be my first time playing poker at Foxwoods. How bad is it on Sundays? Does it get less crowded later in the evening? Will I need to wait a few hours to get a table?I also wanted to ask about their SNG's? Are they winner take all or pay top 3? Link to post Share on other sites

Does it get less crowded later in the evening? Will I need to wait a few hours to get a table?I also wanted to ask about their SNG's? Are they winner take all or pay top 3?ummm sundays during the day are pretty busy ... they start dying down around 8-9 pm, again it all depends on what limits your playing, if your playing the NL 1-2 game you will get a seat fairly quickly, people bust out pretty fast and dont usually keep rebuying in and plus they have like a million 1-2 NL tables going, im not too positive though because i tend to stay away from Foxwoods NL game because i hate the half hour pay 5 bucks thing, its terrible, rather just pay a normal rake when i win a pot then having to pay 5 bucks every half hour no matter what win or lose or being card dead ( not to mention foxwoods just hired and trained a whole lot of new dealers who are slow as hell and dont know what their doing just yet and that means far less hands per half hour ). As for the sit and go's, i dont have a clue, i heard they were winner take all ( of course deals are allowed ) but i dont know for sure because i dont play them.... Hope that helped you out. Good Luck, who knows, ill probably be out there sometime either monday or tuesday Link to post Share on other sites
Beaster 0 Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 I'm from CT about 1hour from foxwoods but my work is 30mins from the woods so i tend to be there 3 or so days a week. The wait at the woods isnt to bad anymore now that there up to 114 tables. The new room looks nice but not as roomie as the old upstairs room used to be, But they have sit and go's now so you can't go wrong at all as for the post above me, sit and go's pay top 3 Link to post Share on other sites
