Arrived at Trop. Check in line was long so bellhop for bags. Played PGT for about 30 mins. Alone for almost all of it. Won $115. Dealer was competent but not talkative. Craps looked to be all $25 so I didn’t play. Walked over to Caesars. 9/6 years quarter JOB was full so walked to Ballys. Had to get new players card. Line took 30 mins. Very slow. Got $15 freeplay. Played some 50 cent and 1 dollar 9/6 JOB. Cashed out up $50 or so. Ballys took PGT out of the high limit room. Seems like an odd choice. High limit was packed with Bacc tables. Maybe 10 full tables. I haven’t seen it like that as far back as I can remember.
Walked back to Caesars. Got a seat at the quarter 96 JOB. Progressive at $1016. Not positive but still $16. Ordered 5 drinks and drank 4.5 drinks and dropped $100 over 90 mins or so. One 4OAK. Nothing bigger. At one point I held an Ac and took a drink on the draw. Saw Kc, Qc and Jc. My hand was over the right most card and I heard the sounds play for a winning hard. It was a club but not the royal. Oh well. Walked back to Trop to meet my friends for dinner. FWIW I did see a $25 S17 BJ table. That was a bit surprising. Waiting for dinner reservation now.
for the new Bally's in AC, what's the coin in per Tier Credit? (slots and vp)Quote: TinManOn my way out to Atlantic City for an overnight trip with some friends. First casino trip of the year. I’ll post a few updates. I’m most curious to see what Ballys is like under the new owners.
I expect this trip to be mostly craps, PGT, VP and possibly some BJ.

you walked from Trop to Caesars? that's a long walk on the boardwalk, isnt it?
Dinner at Carmine’s In Trop. Fine for what it was. Chicken Marsala had a very thick Marsala sauce. Then back to PGT. Played for a little over an hour and had the table entirely to myself. Banked every other hand. Lost $170.
The $25 S17 3/2 BJ game looks to be 4 decks. May play that tomorrow.

I think it’s about 3/4 mile. Maybe 15 minutes leisurely walking. The boardwalk itself is depressing (as is pretty much all of Atlantic City) but it’s convenient.

It’s like a 20-30 min walk.
The Jitney guys ask like $18 for the trip.
If you are casino hopping on the boardwalk, the tram is the quickest way. $4 per trip or like $9 for a day pass.
