Well yes. Depending on what your expectations are, if they are charging top dollar rake, you'd expect to have a somewhat competent person running the floor. Obviously Lisboa isn't a first class operation. Stanley Ho was the king of Macau for the longest time but he ain't no Adelson. Adelson wouldn't put out a halfass product, he'd be sure an efficient person was there for a few months at least running the room. Putting in rookies right away is foolish, you only get one chance at a first impression.

I never compared the two cities. I just stated from the posts that Macau seems like a horrible place to play poker right now. It's Golden Week in Asia and I was planning to go to Macau and play. It's disappointing to read that only 12 hands are dealt an hour. A guy was short $1000 and they gave him a food certificate. WTF is that?

I can't build houses, so yes you would be a moron to pay me to do something I don't know how to do. If a person paid me to build a house I wouldn't mind being called a moron as long as the money was good. I never asked for the job.
I often travel to Asia, especially Hong Kong & Macau. I hope they have a good room. All I'm saying is that they should bring in a few experienced people and have them stationed there to train the staff for a few months. Having incompetent people running the tables doesn't make for a very good poker experience.
