Made it back to around 540 and its more than 3 and half hours on the table.
By now, i realize there isn't any MEGA fish and just shallow stacks folding everything and table is now 6 handed.
I ask the dealer if i can change a table and he said yes, then he asks the floor and floor said... Only if you are loosing and i replied saying yes i am... Some players objected and said thats not true (Note, they aren't here since i am so they don't know my exact buy in). I don't speak french and everybody (Floor, dealer & players) are talking in french. Dealer then told me, everybody doesn't seems to think you are loosing and i responded i don't care what they think, i know my buy and i know my stack.
Finally floor said... This is the main table and you can't move until you get stacked and i asked, if this is the main table, why is it not 9 handed at all times (There are at least 6 more 2/2 tables running). No response and dealer just started dealing the hand.
Pretty dumb and sooo much attitude in everybody.... 4% Rake with no cap.... actually it gets to even 10% sometimes.... 50 Pot rake is 8 (6 +2). Water bottle for 2 or so.... Annual membership of 50. I am here as a tourist and might not come again for years but just not happy with the way they run the room.
That funny to here you experienced the same BS as me, I was on super tiltand stuck and wanted to change the table cause there were only grinders on the table. First the floor asked me if i was winning(Wtf) and I Said no and then they said I was the main table and Icouldnt move. I felt really leveled and that this was shady. I since then heard that the games are shady to non french players. The grindrs play togheter against the forigners.
But the games were super juicy, which still makes them a little interesting...haha french players suck!
