I would bet a lot of money that no strip casino had even half as many 100+ BB pots per hour as PH did at it's peak. Money was thrown around. Heck, I would bet that PH had more 300 BB pots per hour than any other strip casino had 100 BB pots per hour
Then throw in the girls dancing on the poles and people watching aspect of the drunken debauchery that went on the main aisle of people going to the nightclub and it was insane.
PH was a poker destination simply because you were likely to see something that you had never seen before every time you went there.
