That was a good game. Stacks are definitely playing deep in that game lately. I played until last call, drank to much, went to sleep got up at 6 to start a list and was 4 handed, 3 of the players still there from when i left.
Friday trip update - Got there with my buddy just about 2. A friend had started the list around 8 and when i called him about 1 to tell him we were on the road, there were only 4 on the list. Got there and still only 4, we made it 6. That is when it became bizzaro world. A floor that 2 weeks ago didn't want us to start the game when only 4 showed up because there were other lists that were longer, but finally agreed along with shift manager that we were not going to walk and the game would break in 30 minutes (really a floor misconception that plo players are not limit o8 player that when that game goes from ten to eight they panic because they don't want to play short and game does break) That same floor within 10 minutes of our arrival called the game with only 6 names on the list. 3 showed up, we agreed to start. I told the floor i wasn't as confident that it would last. She said, let's give it a try. Huh, had to check if as in the right place. By the time the cards were in the air we had 5, at 2:38 half hour after we started it was full and the second time i left, after leaving first to go see the Mayweather fight at midnight, was when I got dinner reseating at 5:00 am because there we still a list of 3 players
Shocker number 2. Two weeks ago we sat at a table set up for higher stakes. Had a half rack of black chips, two racks of green and the rest red and white. Once the game used up those chips each fill was 1800 in red and some white.
We've got close to 9k on the table and they keep bringing us 6 buy ins. Well this time when we needed a fill, (and they respectfully would come to the table to check the tray when i told them we were close to needed a fill) with out asking we got 2k in green 1800 in red. Didn't need a fill every half hour. Awesome!!!
All I ever wanted was for the game to catch on and thought it would if we could get new players to come and see how fun and how much action it could be. We have been getting lots of new faces, and they've been repeat new faces. If the floor can be on our side and help us get the games started and promote the game, then maybe we are the game of the future.
I've certainly been critical in the past, but I think I've been fair. If this is the room seeing the game for what it is and helping us out, then I am going to say so, and say thanks!
