It's important to do it in order to ensure that the rules are consistently applied.

If the op explained the action in the hand correctly, it's another example of a floor person not having a clue as to what the rules are, and how to interpret them.

It would be great if all poker room managers would ensure that at least their floor people and above have an accurate understanding of the rules. It sounds like Stan should not assume that his people know what they're doing. I have no idea what Stan does to keep his people up to date with the rules. But periodic quizzes and rules handouts would be a good idea.

It's disappointing when a customer knows more about a business' service or product than its employees do.

Stan

did the bad beat stud hit before?

Were the other comp dollar increases (like 1/2 NL to $1.50, etc.) mentioned last month for November only or permanent? I got the impression they were permanent but some players I have mentioned it to thought they were temporary.

The change to $1.50 was not a promotion. It will remain $1.50.

Stan

Hey Stan...whats the word on RAZZ november has come and gone...approved? when can we expect the first HORSE TOURNEY?

Getting closer is all i can say.

Hey Stan, how many people have you been getting for the Friday daily's @ 12/6pm? tks

Ah...those goodie reports from Stan!

After a good run at some juicy NLHE at some house last night, I'll be back tonight here at the comfy abode for Eagles and cards. 1-2 or maybe a 2-5. I'll name myself into PLO if need be.

I'll be in a black Rutgers hoodie and cap and just holler "Sanman" for any you 2+2er that might come.

Hi Stan,

I sent you an email yesterday about coming down this Saturday, please respond at your earliest convenience, thanks

Will do

Stan

Just came back after an enjoyable $1-2 NLHE session with $200. While I left with about $95 down after five hours of game time, the game was unbelievably SOFT. It was a family limpfest as we all wanted to see the flop for cheap. I've been up and down, but I was able to recover and win with flushes, straights, showdowns with TPTK.

I did see Stan in his light green shirt working to get the high-limit stud game going around the 7 PM hour (20-40, I think?). Though I didn't want to bother him as he was literally everywhere, making sure things went smooth.

One thing to note. I noticed a new offer I've never gotten before, which were two offers for a complementary breakfast or lunch buffet. SWEET! Has anyone received one?

Ok...Clearly I should be able to find this but I can't. What days does the Survivor tourney run? Any guesstimate on what time the daily tourneys (11am) usually complete?

Yeah, I got this offer but seem to have misplaced it (just moved into a new house). Bad timing as I'm leaving in a few hours to come up there for the weekend.

Survivors run on Sunday at 4pm $100 + $20

The morning tournaments end between 5pm and 6pm

Stan

Got an email with that offer yesterday, but unfortunately I won't be able to make it down during the week when it is valid. Borgata does do nice things for their players though

+1

I should get some snail mail soon on that offer.

Plo game is on life support..left a great 2-5 for this..wheres evryone at?
