Yesterday, I arrived at noon. There wasn't a line out in the main casino, but there was a lot of people waiting around in the poker room. I was 51st on the wait list for 1/2. I was seated 30-40 minutes later.
By 4pm, it was very busy with a big line once again out in the main casino. There were a lot of people who got into the room and on the waitlist, but then just sat at a table. There were lots of open seats at 1/2 tables, despite the long waitlist. At one point, there was an announcement over the PA asking dealers to make sure the correct player was sitting and coming from the waitlist.
It's a self compounding issue. When a player is deep in the list, but just sits anyway, he stays on the list and a seat is held for him at another table, at least for a while. Then other players deep in the list see a lot of open seats.... I think MDlive staff is doing a pretty good job all things considered.
I'm about to head there, and when I arrive will try to post an update on lines/waits, etc.
