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)
Why would you play them off as $25s? Do you still get full value doing that? I watch folk picking $25 instead of the $50 or $100 option and it blows my mind. I'm getting $200 a pop now, with either $100 or $150 with them per trip, I always print out the max.
Never been to CT for gaming, do you think they would match my Black card there?
I like the Borg too, but the best two restaurants for me are Knife&Fork (happy hour apps at the bar 1/2 price!!!) and Revel Amada tasting menu.
