The only time I've seen the game being any good is when there's a super drunk gambler in the game after 10:00 PM, and almost in every instance when this situation comes up there's no list and 2 or 3 empty seats at the table.
But everyone seems to be pissed they can't show up on Friday and Saturday night between 5:00 and 9:00 and sit in a super nitty spread game in less then 20 minutes?? What's up with that??......
The whining was a result of that guy being told to stick around because they told him they would start a spread limit game when it sounds like they were not really all that interested in doing that. Instead they recruited for the limit game. That's all fine and well, but be up front about it. I would have been upset as well if I drove all the way there, waited over an hour because I was being told one thing and then not getting to play at all.
Agree that some waiting is fine, to a point. But if he had gone to CAZ it is almost a guarantee to get into a game fairly quickly because normally there are several Spread limit games going all the time there.
And granted, the HWP spread limit game is fairly lousy, but that is not the point. There seems to be more than enough people who want to play it, so they should accommodate those players. Not doing so is VERY anti player friendly imo.And the games probably would get better if they spread more games, but it seems like they do not want to do this.
I also think that players we looking for a good second option to play their brand of poker and were hoping too that WHP would be it. I am included in this group. I do not understand why they are so limit heavy in that room? There are plenty of tables now to make everyone happy. Why would a casino NOT want to make people happy and keep them coming back, spread the good word, etc. It seems ridiculous.
Call me crazy but I think if WHP offered say... 3 or 4 spread limit games instead of 23 limit games and just
ONE spread limit game, the bitching would end.
