Gravy train over---Tampa boat was paying $70 to cruise 5 hours

[Fishhead]

ope:

$20 in coin coupon found online coupled with four $25 matchplays with 1,000 buy-in at tables(equates to $50 on paper).

$70 just for boarding...........and a fairly decent free buffet to boot.





A couple of the better current promotions that involve poker in the Tampa area....................


Sarasota pokerroom is having a $60,000 freeroll for players logging 80 hours in July/August.......with a maximum of 450 players.

Tampa Greyhound---Aces cracked from 12-2pm earns $100..........and they also have cash drawings for active players from 430-630(recieve a drawing ticket every 15 minutes).

 

[Fishhead]

Will be at Tampa Greyhound from 12-7pm today if anyone wants to meet up for a little no limit action.

I haven't gone on that boat in years. Is it still hard to get on a craps or blackjack table?

:lolBIG:........no.

Most boats in the area have fewer than 50 people on them for their day cruises during the day(11-4).

A few times when taking the boat out of Treasure Island, there were less than 30 patrons on the entire vessel.

Nice I will make a date night with the wife. She love to sit there and watch me loss money gambling.

Remember, the night cruises draw considerably more patrons.

I would think that Promo boat deal would be full of retired people getting the free $$$.

A couple could pull down $140 a day,$980 a week, 50k a year !

I'd expect all of Del Boca Vista to be there everyday.

Fish do you have a "job"

 

[Fishhead]

Doug-tough grind, but true. Here in Florida, there were no real "attackers" of this promotion as far as I could tell. If this were Vegas, you would have tons of sandbaggers like myself on this promo.

Timetopay-Yes, I'm a "grinder".

Just because your close, Sarasota Kennel Club.

Took my first wife there on our honeymoon.
Needless to say, it didn't go over very well.

They've had that dime buy-in off and on through the years Fish. In fact at one time you bought in at the cashiers cage before the tables were even open, that made it easy to find others to help you out. With a little talking at the buffet it wasn't unusual to have 20-25 quarter matchplays in your pocket before the lights came on. I would estimate over 90% of the passengers would not take advantage of the free money.
