Atlantic City Tomorrow

Looks like I'll be making my first foray down to AC tomorrow. My buddy (millerd33 on FT) is looking to get some big stack practice in, so he's heading to Harrah's tomorrow to play in a 40+10. Yes it's kind of a rip off with a $10 fee for a $40 tourney, but I guess it's a moneymaker for them. I'm sure each casino down there needs to find a niche and I guess Harrah's is a cheapo daily tourney for tourists. Anyway, the starting stack is 10K (though I'm willing to wager starting blinds are 50-100 so what's the point?). There are also no antes, so that's a plus.

I expect the play to be at least as bad as the freerolls run by Riggstad's RPT. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if it's worse. I fully expect a tourist paradise in this tourney, full of people whose poker knowledge comes solely from watching the World Poker Tour final tables.

But a trip is a trip and it will be nice to get down to AC. Hopefully I'll get a good story or two out of it to relay. Good luck me.
