He's a young man who doesn't appear to have a lot of casino poker experience. Seat 3 is under the gun and raises to $12. Another hour goes by and nothing really exciting happens and then I witnessed one of the craziest hands I've seen and really the reason for this post. The first hand had a pot of about $500 and the winner had Ace high.

The players at new table had between $200 & $500 but the play was just as crazy. I sat & folded for almost an hour when they opened a new table and requested a table change. The average stack must have been 3k with a couple players hovering around 5k. I must be at the wrong table, I'm playing 1-3. As I approached the open seat they sent me to I saw how many chips were in play and apologized. I asked for a seat at a $1/$3 NLHE table and got $200 in chips. I went to the poker room while the wife donated to the slots.

Let me start out by saying I'm not a good gambler and an even worse poker player, therefore I do not like to risk a large amount of money.

I really think Del Lago has something for everyone and they did comp my room, dinner and show on my Birthday.Didn't have any plans for Friday night and the wife wanted to get out of the house so we took the 1 hour drive to Del Lago Casino in Waterloo NY. I no longer put my card in when I play slots and if I sit at a lower stakes table, i dont use my card as it adjusts my average net and I lose my comps. Well this month I'm not receiving free play anymore and I'm back to $75 per week free play, but the system should not have adjusted my account as it did. They did check something on my record that says I am a table player and it could take up to 8 weeks to have their system catch up. I spoke to promotions who said sorry, that is how the system is set up. The rating system thought I became a slot player! I lost my match play which at one point was $200 per week, no more VIP emails and offers! But I did start receiving $10 per week in slot free play so I shouldn't say I didn't receive any comps at all. After a session of blackjack, I was killing some time and decided to play some slots. I play blackjack in the high limit area and received the benefits that you would expect playing $100 per hand. I do think their rating system needs to be fixed though. But there is everything there that you would find at any vegas casino. Not as crowded as the Indian Casinos which may become the downfall. There are many different slots, table games, places to eat, poker, hotel, everything you would expect from a casino. I live about 45 minutes from Del Lago and I'm there a couple times per week.
