    Generally 1/1.  Could be a table full of shortstacks or a table super super deep.

    Limping is the common thing.

    Very nice casino.

    A couple of 1/1 games and a 1/2 game usually run.  Some of the regs have picked up the reputation for reducing (hit and run, go for a drink, come back 30 minutes later and buy in for the min again).  I haven't been for a few months and by all accounts the card room manager is beginning to crack down on this.  He's apparently quite good.

    They have shuffle machines in the tables and use two decks so this vastly increases the amount of hands per hour.  As a result when it opened they thought any one could deal, which led to a lot of problems because dealing is a lot more than being able to shuffle.  Again the new manager has got on to this so most of the dealers are now good although you may pick up the odd inexperienced one so keep your wits about you for angle shooting players.

    1/1 standard is mostly weak/passive, you will have the odd grinder there.

    The cloak room is a nightmare, normally one person on and it takes ages.  They will also take your thumb print on an electronic reader as well as giving you a ticket.

    The casino is pretty swish though.  The card room is at the back but you get plenty of people wandering in from the table games as it's not cut off.

    thanks, I've heard the dealers didn't have a clue so it's good news they have sorted that and the floor manager is bang on it.

    o right so the machines are used by so called dealers, intresting )


    sounds like a TAG head tonight then, if I can calm the amount of alcohol I intake !

    What's your problem? Every post I see from you on this forum is abusing somebody. If you've got nothing nice to say, don't bother posting.
