Guy seems to be drunk or in my eyes, he appears to look mentally challenged. <mod delete> Guy calls clock several times as soon as players act for more than 10 sec but less than 45 sec. Then he berates you and says something like "morannn, wtf u tanking for. It's simple." lol

Is calling clocks several times at any given time allowed? Or is that some type of harrassment?
Any player at the table can call a clock, even if they are not in the hand. However, generally when a floor is called over for a clock, they will ask the dealer if the player has been given a fair amount of time before they actually count down from 1 minute.

I don't think this answers his question. He's referring to excessive calling of clock. Like every hand. The floor will ask him to cease and if he continues to disrupt the game will be asked to leave. Drunken or not drunk belligerent people get kicked out if they are makin the game unpleasant for the other people playing.

This isn't a Foxwoods particular question but I just started playing a little blackjack again and getting between 15-90 a hand . What kind of comps should I be getting for these?

At Blackjack, Points/hr = Avg bet * 10%

Don't know baccarat. But each game is easy enough to figure out by just playing 1 session. Be aware of avg bet, total time, and total points earned, and do the math.

8 decks, except for in the MGM high limit room, Pequot Newport room, and Stargazer, which have 6 decks.

To be fair, stuff in the past like dealers keeping their own tips or 2/5 being in the BBJ had multiple false starts/stops along the way. Despite the general everyday incompetence, Foxwoods has actually pulled through pretty consistently when it came to these big sweeping changes.

it tilts me when ppl think 5/10+ players who spew at lower games is a reflection of their actual poker skill

if someone is sitting down and going all in pre-flop without looking at their cards, it prob means they've been successful enough in poker for a bankroll to do that..i do think a lot of tournament players play bad at cash though..not really vise versa

well I managed to make it into the Main Event flight B .. But then Just missed making it to N2 when I did a maybe foolish
bet shove with tens for 48K got called by one of the two big stacks on table he had AK and hit his A on river. (thats poker) But just wanted to say the floor at foxwoods and the dealers are really good. To handle events like this the way they do.

Just because they play 5/10 don't make them good and just because they have they money to blow by not looking and shoving def doesn't mean they good just means they have money to blow.. Not necessarily from poker winnings.. Both players in question were clearly drunk and I can't speak for there play when they are not but I will take either of them at my table while under the influence.. I just so happened to be card dead at the time they decided to give free money away and only managed to get a few dollars with my 66 vs I think was something like j2 but can't complain cause after that table broke me cards changed and I cleaned up..

Happy to see the May MegaStacks includes O8 & HOSE events. Hope to see more of these events in the future. One question - I'm not 100% certain, but I believe the big May tournament board in the room says the start times for these events is 2:00 p.m., but the schedule online says 1:00 p.m...which one of these is correct?

The system is not perfect and the pit boss has to see your bigger bets. This happens much more when you are winning because they may be keeping a closer eye on your action. And if you are winning you're at the table longer and probably making bigger bets more regularly.

For the May Megastack, does 'Re-entry' mean unlimited rebuys up to a certain level or just one rebuy?

When playing TGs don't be afraid to ask the floor before you leave what your average was whether you win or lose . If you don't agree most of the time you can talk the floor into raising your average as long as you aren't a complete dick.
