I finally got to Harrah's East Chicago. Good game from 11am til 1pm when the crowd arrived. I left at 1:20.

SBR $1605 
EBR $1685 
time played: 2.0 hours 
+$80, no tips 
unit $15 

Note that William, very big black guy, cut off .75 decks out of 6. He is, however, mathematically challenged, so his table plays very slowly. He didn't make any mistakes, but had to count players hands carefully, sometimes pointing to the cards twice.

Also note that if you wong into a $5 table, you can only play one hand Also note that you can only board on odd hours, for 30 minutes ie 11am til 11:30; but you can leave any time. I'll probly go back tomorrow or monday and try to arrive at 9am; should be even less crowded. Hi limit area had two $25 tables, both crowded. Pen was great, at less than one deck cut.

This place looked like a counter's convention; everybody from Empress, Joliet was here today.
