    To Be Determined
    Place: Local area Casino
    Date: ?
    Time: ?

    I would tend to think January, after the holidays and perhaps on a morning to even an all day event?
    Not a Friday or Saturday due to traffic, room rates & table rates
    Maybe Sunday before SB49
    • Table run
    • Slot Pull
    • Buffet Lunch
    • Fun & Laughter
    • Libations
    Anyone?

    I can't miss the pro bowl!

    I am down.

    I am southeast about 15 mins from the NWI casinos but willing to travel to Rivers or GVC, but prob not WI for the day (unless the Wolves play in Milwaukee that weekend then I will make a weekend out of it.

    Oh yeah, we can't do it on the Pro Bowl day. I am not a fan of the new way they do it though, so I would'nt mind so much.

    Well not a huge fan of Potawatami, but have had small success there.
    I do like GV & Rivers as well as others, but Rivers may be more conducive due to the central location.
    Their casino is a mini-vegas with all the hustle & bustle. That also means higher limits and less table room.
    Whereas GV is more low key and laid back. They also have Live Hold'em. Probably lower limits and great tables. Lower on the totem pole, but my kinda joint.
    Both have good buffets.
    Heck, maybe do both...LOL

    Do Sunday's work for you after the football season?

    About pro bowl, you missed plenty of snark! Sorry. That day is fine Jan 25th I believe.

    As for the Casino that either is fine but if we were gonna play tables together the lower the limit the better. I never went to GV and went to River's the 3rd weekend it opened I believe. I did not find one open slot machine and tables were too high. We had a few drinks and left. I do lover their parking garage red light/green light system.

    The Joliet casinos work for me as well. Maybe Trig can make it down there...

    At GV we would have a better time with more open room (depending on day/time) being a lot less congested.
    Plus we would probably be able to swing a free buffet etc. with the hosts there.
