11) I know of a guy that allegedly stole in that situation and I believe still plays daily in various local rooms.
18) As crazy as it seems it's a newer shooting. They used a different type of gun in this one. This one was kept more quiet. Hell, there may have been other ones as well.
19) what I was hearing about was actually another room!
22) I've played in casinos various areas of the country, but have never heard dealers (1or2 tops)saying whatever they feel like, as they(a decent %) do in Houston. Lots of them say what they want, influence action, and even antagonize and instigate.
I think as some of the outer rooms started having bigger (especially PLO games) some of the looking for a mark types who show up don't play or play with a short and like to eyeball and whisper about the bigger games started showing up hanging around long after getting busted with eyes on the bigger games and cashouts. Criminals go wherever the opportunity is.
