I'm wantin to go w/ you guys, but have a question... Is the best way to get there flying into JFK and taking one of those party bus deals, or is there an airport thats closer that would be a better idea... The main advantage of JFK is that I get to fly for $120 roundtrip on Jetblue from FL...

I know AC has an airport but I don't know how many flights it handles. Normally, i would think coming into Philly would be a cheaper way, even Newark over JFK but I don't have much experience with flights and bus deals. Have you looked into the other airports?

AC has a small airport...if I were you ( I hate flying, esp. hate small planes etc), I would not fly there. Philly is closer than JFK (Newark is closer than JFK too). I know from Philly, you can take an amtrak train, but thats like $100 or so RT. Best bet is to fly to Philly and then rent a car, its an hr drive.

There are many cheapass buses from NYC (you end up breaking even after the chip rebate they give you), but the downside there is that the bus takes like 3 hrs, you are a slave to their schedule, and you'll be the youngest person on the bus by about 50 years, +/-5. I took the bus once, left at 8am and was drinking a 2 liter screwdriver, 2 large D&D coffees and a huge-ass protein shake the whole way down, and my ass was nothing on these old geezers. These people smelled horrid before they got on the bus. My noxious ass actually added positive beneifts to the ambiet aroma.

So thats the long answer - if you aim to travel in relative comfort, I'd look into the amtrak train from Philly. Rent a car is middle of the road with the pain in the ass being that eventually you'll have to sober up enough to drive. If funds are an issue and you dont mind squeezing into a tiny ass bus seat in a smelly traveling hearse full of people booted from the cast of Cocoon for being too old, then the bus is your way to go.

I'd offer to pick you up from the airport, but I'm sort of a slave to the bachelor party travel plans.

Hope you can find a way dude.

Bumping this because its getting closer.

Any BTPer that wants to meet up in AC and play some cards - shoot me a PM

ALso working on a trip to LV from June 15-18, to play some WSOP sattys.

Time to put somne of the ridiculous overrolled BR to work for a shot at the bigtime. Here's where playing 100NL with a BR consisting of more than 130 buy ins and 200NL with more than 65 buy ins will pay off.

Briachek...MVP...Tib...Kenny the Stripclub King.... any other BTPers are of course welcome...soft live games in AC. I'd say the 2/5 $500 max buy in is about as soft as $10NL online. Post flop play is a bit better but PF its atrocious

The wife may be on bedrest by then

She spent Friday night in the hospital dehydrated, a mess. She was so dehydrated that she actually started having contractions--they stopped/slowed down/lowered in intensity once they hydrated her.

The doctor basically told her to expect to be put on strict bedrest on Thursday.

My status is therefore now in limbo.

Tibs... I was gonna make some dick "put her in bed and then sneak out the back door" joke in here... But, go take care of your wife...

good luck with the babytib

my wife is 4 months along with #2 right now.

aint easy being pregnant, seems to me.
