i've seen 2 of those places open up, everyone says their legit, and in 5 months they're gone.  Not sure what the f is up with them, used to just be the Continental Club in little italy that had the action.

Well there was that one in Newark that moved to Limestone road that's still around...but according to a lot of the players there, this one is a lot more "professional" than the Limestone Road one. The guys that run it also have a couple rooms in Ohio and Michigan so they know what they're doin.

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds

I was a member of one of those underground rooms in DC for a while...nice penthouse condo in DC, free top shelf liquor, free cigars, hot ass waitresses serving you, etc.  Was actually fun for a while, I'd normally only go over there with like 500 bucks tops but after about three or four months he had a big money night.  Minimum buy in was 25K or something like that.  15-20 people showed up.  Dude went to "lock the money in the safe" and no one has seen him since.  This was about 2 years ago.

yeah i guess it's worth giving out free expensive cigars and liquor if you know you're eventually gonna take off with close to half a million.

Haha that's not one of those places. This is one of them charity places where the rake goes to a different local charity/organization that sponsors it every night. Legal and shtein.

I played at an underground tourny up off MacDade Blvd for a while and it got busted one night.

incase every other post you've ever made wasn't enough proof of how trashy you are, this one certainly seals the deal.

Why, because I played at an underground poker tourny that was a half hour away from where I live?

I'll play anywhere there's a decent game goin.

i hear theres a game on top floor of the north tower of the world trade center on sept 11, 2001. why dont you go?
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

The last time I went to a game in New York it was hosted by some german dude, he said he'd be having some jewish friends for dinner. They never showed up but that steak we had was mighty good.

I'm getting staked tonight in either the Harrah's or Taj's midnight tourny. Harrah's has a 10 dollar bounty, but it's generally hit or miss on getting a good amount of players. Has anyone here done the Taj midnight? Does it get good turn out on sundays?

I'm playing in one of the WSOP tournaments in Vegas in a few weeks.  If anyone wants to stake a piece of my buy-in, I will accept.

You get the winnings from anybody that gets disqualified for trying to steal his sunglasses, which will be purchased with your twenty bucks.
