"B" said take a picture of him paying the floor to call the open seat.
His picture is posted here with his permission

Again I will state if you all want to play high only go ahead but the majority
of players at Foxwoods prefer High Low and the game was full at 1am.

Hey it's Billy. I knew who you guys meant before the picture also. I used to work there, dealing poker to you guys, up till last June, when Foxwoods felt they no longer needed my wonderful dealing skilling. Billy was there every day, always with a drink in his hand and always asking for us to start a list for Omaha. He was there so much I started to wonder f he was homeless, lol. If anyone sees him please tell him hi for me. Tell him "Dawn who knows what the M word is" says hello. He should know what I mean.

Then I got stuck in traffic for around an hour when 95 north was closed because of a drunk driving multi-car crash, luckily everyone was ok.

Def the most unique visit to foxwoods I've ever had.

That sucks. Maybe it's best that I've never been to David Burke Prime, lol.

Fifth Street Cafe? I saw a chef in the back tossing the pizza dough. He dropped it on the floor, picked it up, and continued tossing it. Nasty

Then the **** asian dude wont start another list????? Whats that about?

If you want to start a new game list don't ask the floor person go to podium, sometimes they say see a shift manager

Hey I might be going to Foxwoods on thursday and was wondering about their tournaments. I'm interested in the $80 at 8pm tournament. Where can I find the structure of this tournament? About how many people on average show up? Whats the payout like? Thanks so much!

I'm told that Thanksgiving is always Foxwoods' busiest day of the year. Can anyone confirm this? How about the weekend after?

Quote:

Structure sheet should be somewhere on the Foxwoods site (but since it's $80, I can already tell you the structure sucks). As for number of players, this can be pretty unpredictable, but a Thursday night game, maybe it'll reach 100 or come close.

OMG, i was at the woods tonight, and saw a lady lick the spoon for the mashed potatoes at the festival buffet, IN FRONT OF A COOK! He looked shocked and continued to take the spoon to scoop the new mashers into the old! Not a buffet guy, but definitely never to going to the festival or any othe rbuffet again.

wow, what an ugly image.
example of the kind of thing that will not help the woods keep market share when they potentially end up surrounded by new casinos on multiple fronts.
see it in so many little ways-- overall bad quality control + shoddy management culture.

i'm not winging, i just kinda like their big poker room and i'd like to see the place do well.

sad thing is, a bout a month back, my girlfriend was at sunburst buffet at mohegan and saw a similar thing. Buffets are gross, so many people hounding over food, why i went i don't know. Why doesn't foxwoods or mohegan offer a good stack of pancakes, anyone have recommendations for a really good breakfast at the casino or nearby?

Mystic has some awesome restaurants. S&P Oyster and Azu are a bit expensive, but worth every penny. I believe there is a Five Guys also around exit 90 on I-95.

great class and manners from the spoon licker
her parents should be shot she should be spayed to remove that dna from the gene pool
I would have asked her if i spit in your ice water would you drink it
no amount of supervision or management can control the buffet baboons
although the server should have to eat all the mashed potatoes and lick the spoon
