Here is the official word......

Effective 6:01am today the bad beat is being lowered to aces full of jacks beaten...the bad beat is being combined with the secondary so it will be about 224k or so.......

Starting Monday at 6:01am every hour on the hour revel will be paying $500(from the bad beat jackpot money that was kept to fund promotions,so it's really the players money) for the high hand of the hour using both hole cards....there will be 24 $500 an hour winners....it's gonna take about 9 days to pay this out.....

Please don't nobody feel bad for any of the employees I've been telling them for a long time that the end was near,....Jeff Hartmann the CEO implemented the first ever layoffs at Mohegan sun then he was laid off hired here and starting axing people....

A lot of people including myself left family back in Connecticut because we had hopes of working for the best casino on east coast we were jerked to the max....took out benifits away hours cut the whole 9 yards....

Finally for once in my life I zigged when I should have zigged and zagged when I should have zagged....with moving to Maryland

Every night for the last year and 3 months I went to sleep a bitter person leaving Connecticut making 10 percent of what I was making there....

Any place that neglects a casino deserves to be shut down....mark my words the end is near for revel.....they are losing 300k a week and they had 1 week where they made 33,765.......

Turn out the lights the partys over!!!!!

Just to add a few things I have 100 percent confirmation that from 6am on starting tnrw it's $500 every hour for 24 hours till August 15....also poker tourneys are done there!!!!

And being I left before the final bad beat jackpot count with the bad beat and the 2nd bad beat that was a reserve for when the first 1 hit the final number is $234000........and like the $124000 that has to get distributed from the promotional account.....

Guys this is a situation you will never see again.....a year and a half of collected money from a jackpot that never it!

Go get that money guys it's as free a shot at money as you will ever see

wow.

looks like you made the right move going to live.

I might head down next Monday and Tuesday. despite the money, i'm not sure how much time I want to spend in the revel poker room though. could use some beach time.

what's the schedule for live? still august 28??

Yes live is still on target for aug 28.....and they are still hiring....not many people can afford the move out tO Maryland.....nearly impossible for me

Come down Monday and Tuesday play early in morning and cut deals 500 every hour for high hand there was so much negotiating tonight I couldn't believe what I was seeing!!!!!

total rewards is jerking me around on the rate, so trip might be off. probably still go though, lol. i'm supposed to be free and $17 at slowboat.

I think some c-town dealers were moving in together because Maryland was so expensive. that might be something you can try if you have any connections there?

aryland was so expensive. that might be something you can try if you have any connections there?
Yes living this 3 other clowns from ac.....this is a low point in my life...cuz I didn't have the time to go to Maryland exept for the audition then the next week for licensing I wanted to get a lay of the land.....Im on a year lease but the minute I smell pot or any kind of drugs or excessive noise and or alcohol
And party's im out the door....they will mess up

As for total rewards because I moved out of my house in brigantine next to harrahs I'm living about 2 hours outside ac.....called up total rewards and told them I was diamomd they didn't care.....they told me $119 Tuesday and $89 Sunday like they were doing me a favor.....so I'll be staying off the strip in the ghetto motels.....FML!!!! Or my friend told me to stay at his house....

If you come down well eat good I got a $100 diamomd card celebration comp for food.......again a real bargain

But come get the free money at revel.....actually at 3:11am for the first time in 10 years a casino has more games then the big bad borgata.....revel has 15 they got 13.......

Not even close......and now there's confusion to what is a qualifying hand....apparently on a AAA47 board pocket jacks and kings wouldn't qualify....the place is such a mess....

The place is so nice they should have put showboat resorts ballys and atlsntic club out of business......it's like Verrazano going to fairmount park and get beat by 3 claimers....

Nooooooooooo always used my fathers adress 2 hours away.....they may have gotten a little hot 3 weeks ago when I was walking into ballys and harrahs and just using my $10 $25 slot play then leaving.....

If the bad beat don't hit by Sunday and the 116k promotional fund runs out with will be about 9 days from 6am yesterday expect to see the bad beat be lowered to queens full beaten or maybe 10s full....

Interesting if I was the CEO and I see what a free $500 an hour does and to be fair I think this sudden increase is more the $500 high hand the jackpot if you have 15 tables with $4 a hand in rake x 15 that's $60 every 2 minutes 60x 30 hands per table per hour is 1800 a hour......and minus the $500 your paying out of pocket is a good income....

But of course the dumb casino don't think like that.....for 15 months they paid out $1200 a week to 5 floors a salery of $64k to 3 shift managers to watch 1 table and sometime zero tables for a 3 day stretch....

There all morons.....and 95 percent of casino pit bosses and vice presidents don't have a college degree....they just kissed ass to get up the ladder

are they still paying the $2/hr comps?

still $1,000 an hour with room to grow.

also are you sticking around until the end? it could get crazy there on the last day if it hasn't hit. will there be enough dealers?

I'm leaving or my last day will be Friday the 9th or sat the 10th.....i get my stupid house in Maryland on the 1st......

And no we don't have nearly enough dealers.....up until the time I saw you there were about 7 of us that we're there from day 1 That were fulltime....and maybe another 9 part timers.....but that small a number was more then enough for any night exeot a busy Friday and Saturday.....

To show u what filth and disregard this place has for human beings they just hired 6 new dealers the day before they were closing the room....

Today we had 15 games with about 39 on the list at various times....they even had table games dealers up there from downstairs......I didn't like that at all...they were always the first people laughing aT us for not making money but now there up there.....but that's ok....

I really hope one of them don't deal the bad beat....I have no clue what these poker dealers are gonna do when this room closes I feel bad for them....it should be a poker dealer to deal it and not a table game dealer....

And just to be official I'm handing in my 2 week notice letter tnrw or weds and it will be nasty.....will Definitly take a picture of it and send it to you I'm pretty sure your number is in my phone

Can no 10s in the deck really hurt your odds to win that bad in sp21? If you.....

Get 21 win automatically
Can surrender anytime
Can surrender or hit double down anytime
5 card 21 3/1 I think

And there's more too:....I guess then pulling the 10s really hurts I don't get it though I've played sp21......1/8 lifetime
