Anybody else do game the system on the table match plays?
I like Amphora, but it doesn't compare to the lounges at Mohegan Sun. While I'm not a big beer drinker, they have quite a few on tap including Guinness. And, I'm quite the fan of Guinness + Moët, on a few occasions. Also, no comparison on the premium liquor selection. All the vodkas (Belvedere, Goose, Ketel, etc. etc.), 4+ premium tequilas, 18 year old scotch, 20 year port, and my favorite 100 year Grand Marnier (and that's just a small sample). Additionally, lounges (3 regular) have at least one that is open 24/7 + there is smoking (yep, I'm a cigar person) in one of the lounges.
With regard to table match plays @ Borg, I get around $1200 to $2500 per month; and tend to play them off (as $25s) on the pass line at craps. Only thing better would be high-limit blackjack, but I prefer the lower limit variance of $25s (instead of $100/$200 per hand match-plays for high limit blackjack)
Borgata is by far my favorite property in AC (I visit approximately once per month). But, Mohegan Sun is my favorite casino in the area.
Of course, Borgata also gets a slight edge on gaming, since they have a big baccarat game that is (usually) open on Saturday evenings. (and that, is by far, my favorite casino game)
