Kenny... if you're gonna stay at the Borgata, ask them about the pokerrate... If you play for 8 hours, they give you a room for like $49 per night during the week, $99 on weekends... Briachek said the rooms are limited, so ask...

Personally, I don't like the room at the Borgata... The PR is tiny... The players are sometimes pretty tight... The waittimes can be ridiculous... I MUCH prefer, and I know Briachek does to (who is the only other person I know on here that goes to AC), playing at the Taj Majal... SUPERLARGE room... Much larger than any room in Vegas... And, the players there at the 1/2 and 2/5 games are the same idiots that play most other places... SUPERAGRESSIVE and SUPERBAD...!!!

Also, as far as hotel rooms go, if you can't get the pokerrate at the Borgata, I'd stay at the Hilton... It's a REALLY REALLY nice hotel... You can walk to the Taj or the Tropicana (the only other place that has poker, but it's a MEGADUMP)... And it's a 5 minute cab ride to the Borgata, if that's where you want to go...

Hey guys, I live about 3 hours away from A.C. and am jonesing to get down there soon. Let me know when you're gonna be there and hopefully we can hook up.

I prefer the taj room to the Borgata as well. Borgata is nice, and the waitresses are smokin hot, but the wait times there are hideous if you don't show up at 9am.

I agree with JD for this one. I don't have much experience staying there as I've never actually stayed since I'm so close. Def give me the heads up when and where you will be and we'll meet up.

I might actually be the closest to AC on the board (that I know of). I'm about 30-40 minutes NW of Atlantic City. I play at Taj and Trop.

The Trop has really cleaned up its image. Big time. The Quarter is awesome. Taj is real nice too--probably the best poker room in AC (size, fishiness).

Avoid Borgata like the plaque. They do have the poker rate, but unless you don't mind a HUGE wait for a table, go elsewhere.

Taj is best for ring AND tourney (no rebuy tourneys abound). Trop is a fairly close second. I usually come home or crash at a friend's place in Ocean City, so I'm not one to ask about the hotels.

Best of luck!
