Just spent the weekend.  Haven't been there in a long time.  Played at Tropicana and Harrah's.  Broke even on the trip thanks to blackjack.  Anybody make frequent trips down to AC?  What casinos are your favorites?

Borgata on weekends, But mainly taj mahal has the easiest playing field for cash games in my opinion.

Taj always has alot of poker action but the casino is a total shithole compared to many others.. Go next door to the Showboat and what a difference.  friday and saturday nights from 10-4am dancing girls and chicks in lingerie dealing blackjack in the house of blues section

if you go to AC with a girl you go to the Borgata and NOWHERE else, end of story...

Poker? Borgata and if you want some real action with bad players and higher stakes, the Taj will do you good...

Outside of that the Quarter at the Trop is nice but nothing else about it is...eat there and leave...

Go nowhere else maybe except Caesars...it will be a waste otherwise

I get comped at any harrah property(harrahs, caesars, showboat, ballys) and get occasional comps from borgata.  I dont make frequent trips though. Nicest casino Borgata. Best place to play poker for me is usually wherever the bad beat jackpot is at the moment as it induces players to play more hands.  Toughest comp for me is borgata.  2nd best prop to stay IMO is Harrahs Water Club.

Probably close to $99.  If you plan to go there often I'd suggest playing BJ for several hours(highest stakes your comfortable with) and from there you'll be given Sun-Thurs free going forward.  They give away that offer pretty frequently.  When you headed down?

Plan on heading down first week in March.  Are you from the tri-state?

Didn't get a chance.  I don't like to go in that area unless I am going to eat or play poker at the Tropicana or Taj.  Other than that, I try to stay by Harrah's.

I might check out Borgota first week of march
