The way the 6max was ran is a joke. This tournament isnt even real. There's tourney directors not even in the room during the entire final table. Hand for hand was messed up terribly. This bald headed idiot named carmine is in there cussing everybody at the table out and cursing the dealer out, daring him to call the floor over and kick him out. The floor was called and he wasnt even given a penalty after calling the dealer a ******ed looking ****ing dumbass while the head TD is standing at the table. Holy **** get a real TD for a WPT series or don't even have the series at all. I wish there was a rep on here who gave a **** about their poker room.

I don't remember the exact number but I believe it was just over 325. I know Saturday got 177... And heard Friday was about 150ish. All I know frost was 92.2k and min cash was a little over 3100.

I learned 2 things last night at Derby Lane.

1. They are open 24 hours on the weekends.

2. TDA rules now apply to cash games.

Correction - For the $500/$100 high hand promotion - Quads+ gets paid $100 on the spot and the highest hand for the hour gets an additional $500. There is a bonus $25/$100 payout on the high hand tables. The $100 winner draws a seat card and someone at that table gets $25 and the hourly $500 winner draws for a $100 winner at his/her table.

Yeah TDA rules in cash games kinda silly imo. Was there the other night and was told I couldn't flip over my cards heads up when I was facing an allin. Silly. Running it twice is kinda cool though

Yea I tried explaining to them that TDA is for tournaments, hence they name. And they gave me a look like "Are you trying to tell me how to do my job"

They are idiots....

^ I've been participating in the PokerDawgs charity tournaments for a couple of years. They are a good organization, raising money for charity. I'll be giving the Free Poker 101 classes at each event this year (not getting anything for it - just to help out).
