Really. I've found the opposite. Maybe change the way you play.

I have bad luck finding a decent table. They are all drinking coffee late at night and nitting it up. The only winner is the house because there isnt at least 1 rebuy per hour.

And then if you loosen up and start raising a lot preflop, 6 people will call pre and play fit or fold postflop, effectively preventing any further bluffing

If the action is starting to dry up, then it's because they have raked all the money off the tables. Good luck beating an $8 rake (I know that $1 goes to the promo fund, but the probability of hitting the BBJ is right around zero).

Played Monday from around 2:30 PM to about 10:30. 1/2 game. Definitely not a nit fest. Consistently pots over $50 pre. Several large stacks at table over $1000. All ins consistent. One particular hand had 7 callers calling 54 pre. On flop 7 people all in. Winner of hand won 700 plus dollar pot with 54 off. Yet I see players complaining all the time on here about the nit fest. Im not seeing it. Way more a nit fest at the shoe in my opinion.

There is exactly 0% chance that is true. Hmm lets see, 7 people all in on the flop, pot 700, average stack of $100 then, yet there are "several large stacks at the table over $1000". sounds completely ****ing made up by someone who owns a stake in the room. I played hundreds of hours at GVC 1/2 and never once saw anything even remotely similar to what you just said. I award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul

You must be that guy who plays a hand once every 4 hours when you have kings or aces and can't understand why no one calls your ore flop shove with only the 3 bucks blinds in pot. Yep. Nit fest. Can't get anyone to play.......

This Must be a joke, you and back door flush cant be that stupid. The owner of the room is GVC and I can assure you they are not on 2+2 wondering what some flunkies got to say about how a casino should be run. This does sound far fetched but its not from the casino.

Gvc floorpeople and dealers do read this thread. I got called out there by multiple employees for making a negative post about milo mishandling short tables.
Its not ALWAYS nitty, I was in a 7 way allin there once???

Where did I tell the GVC owners how to run a casino again? I was calling out a made up story. And if you think the room employees don't care about the games/room traffic when their net worth directly correlates with it, you are mistaken. Someone else just confirmed their interest and attention to this thread above anyway. Perhaps you are the joke.

Yes, Dealers & Floor People monitor this site (much like a corporation monitors employee work email accounts). Moreover, they monitor it every 6-12 hours. If you say the least derogatory thing about this casino, the following will happen: Your two plus two account will be deleted. You will be eyed non stop when playing at GVC (affecting your play). You will be banned from the casino due to no fault of your own.

One would assume this web site would allow for free speech but it does not. If you'd like to use free speech, you may do so on yelp (but not this site). Why not this site? Because it is monitored by GVC floor people like the police monitor criminals.

I would consider it a badge of honor to be banned from GVC for saying something in here

The rake is $7+$1. It's probably the highest rake in America.

I'm thinking about checking this casino out this weekend. How are the 2/5 and 5/10 games? Who are the toughest regs to avoid? I only want to play with big fish
