What is "ATLARGE"?
ATLARGE is an annual gathering in Atlantic City of poker players who
originally "met" and/or still participate on the Internet Newsgroup
rec.gambling.poker (rgp). We get together in different poker friendly
locations throughout the US during the year to have fun and PLAY POKER.
Our biggest annual meeting is called BARGE and it is held in Las Vegas
in August. ATLARGE is the Atlantic City version, and is held in March
of every year (usually the first weekend in March).
ATLARGE stands for: ATLantic city Annual RecGambling Excursion.
Historically, the attendance at ATLARGE is second only to BARGE. In 2004,
over 180 r00lerz from all over the planet brought the good times
to Atlantic City for four days of fun and p0cker. ATLARGE 2005 will be
held at the fabulous TRUMP TAJ MAHAL, the largest card room in Atlantic
City.
Last year we played three tournaments: H.O.E., No-Limit Hold'em, and
7-Card Stud. Each even cost approximately $75, including registration
fee dealer tokes. The events were sponsored by our friends at the fabulous
TRUMP TAJ MAHAL who graciously supply our HOSPITALITY SUITE and FOOD
COMPS, and PokerStars, whose generosity is rapidly becoming legendary in
our group, and with good reason. Thanks to both for their continued
support of the poker community and specifically our group.
