Too nice for AC. Definitely a Vegas type place, but compared to the high end places there, it wouldn't stand out.

If their marketing plan is to draw players from the other casinos, I guess they will do OK at the expense of some of the lesser AC joints. I can only judge by poker, and like I said, only the Trop and Taj have viable poker rooms. The talk was that both of them are hurting now, and I saw a lot of familiar faces, employees included.

If they think they're going to draw customers from Vegas or something, though, I don't think it's gonna happen. You walk out the door of this place, and there's nowhere to go. No "strip", obviously, but no boardwalk either. Just access roads and parking lots.

See comments above about the crowds and action.

But enough thread pollution.

It's taken 25 days, but the top five from the first half once again occupy the top five spots. All of us are not exactly in the positions in which we belong, but that's just a matter of time. At least for the top spot, anyway. :p
