Thank you.
I went to the opening night last night and there was nothing like that. However:
They had three tables of Omaha, all 20-40 limit with a half kill (after any pot went to 400). I was seated at one of these where there was a 30ish guy whose strategy was to bloat every pot and who had put the rest of the table on tile. So there were very few pots that didn't start out 30-60 and those were always three- or four-bet preflop with 6-8 players staying to take the flop. That meant premium starting hands were in for a tough time and the damnedest things wound up winning (8863 took one of the biggest pots of the night with a six-high straight -- and a couple of hands later a 7-high flush draw stayed to the river to run down my nut straight).
But when you did rake a pot it was enough to keep you in action for the next while.
The cannon had about 3500 in front of him when I sat down. He rebought four times for about that much, then for 400 around 2 a.m. and left when that was quickly gone.
