Regarding the Resorts World Catskill poker room I was reading a thread in the 2+2 Poker Forum under:
--> Live Poker
--> Venues and Communities

Sounds like they have the same issue as my local poker room at the Hollywood Casino at Charles Town Races, and that is the touching of cards. Not sure why they find this specific concern is so critical. A large majority of poker rooms around the country that are or have already reopened seem to believe that their risks are sufficiently addressed by the duo of masks and plexiglass dividers.

Hopefully soon we can both return to preferred poker rooms!

BTW I played poker at your poker room in 2019 when I was adding the Monticello Raceway to my track visit list.

sharks smell blood in the water (trooper -596 at the pink bird)...

almost precisely on cue:



now i enjoy the videos and don't want to see trooper lose and the dream die but the fact is he's not playing well and sharks attack blood in the water. it may as well be thaskalos that beats him.

hope everybody is well!!

That's my fear, that when the poker room at RW Catskills does re-open, the rust on my game is gonna weigh me down badly and it's gonna feel like swimming upstream against a raging river for a long time before getting back in the groove

More Reopenings of Possible Interest
 

Given the locations of some of our more frequent Poker Forum posters, I thought they might like to know of the following:

10/16 --> Mohegan Sun (Pocono Downs)
10/21 --> Borgata (NJ)
10/23 --> The Meadow Racetrack and Casino

No information on the potential reopening at the Hollywood Casino (Penn National), but with two of the above in PA, perhaps Penn National will not be far behind. I have yet to attend this "somewhat local" casino, but I know it is in proximity's back yard.

Of particular interest to me is The Meadows. They have recently allowed fans to attend the live harness races, and since this track is not yet on my Visit List, I can now look for some good fall weather to make it a racing/poker doubleheader. :jump:

Still waiting for news on my local Hollywood Casino at Charles Town races poker room. I would have thought that WV would have been one of the first states to allow their poker rooms to reopen, but instead they may end up being one of the last. :pout:

I'll be down in Culpeper VA area for Thanksgiving, so hopefully CT poker room will be up and running by then for me to sneak away from the in-laws and get some action in to knock off the rust.

painful trooper video.....
 

it's part of gambling.

we've all been there.

bad play and attempted justification.

in time maybe trooper will look back at this game and feel differently?

i do agree about the excalibur. always enjoyed the little spread limit game on my trips. even got a chance to meet trooper there once! sad to see the room go.

imo dunkin donuts >>>>> starbucks though.

maybe the troopers could open one near the strip???

Sure did sound like it.

I'm likely done for the year, so maybe in the next few days I'll post my final results for 2020.

it has been close to a year since I have played any live poker.


Has anyone flown to Vegas for a couple days just to play poker? If so please give some suggestions.

i was going to go for last week's colts-raiders game but they didn't allow fans so i didn't do it.

may try and squeeze in one more east coast game this year???

in vegas news i heard the mirage shut down the poker room?
kinda sad to see all the "rounders" casinos dying off if true.

poker life is no hallmark christmas movie.....
 

tales from the mirage.
