I don't understand this argument.
Is it really stupid to compare MD Live to these other casinos? Can we not compare them to anyone?
I honestly don't think I've ever been a casino with worse drink service than Md Live. I've been to huge casinos in NJ, NV, CA and small ones in FL, CO, OK, SD and elsewhere. Plenty of casinos charge absolutely nothing for that Corona while still providing superior service. What makes Maryland so unique that the casinos can't afford the extra $4 an hour for a server? Hell, look at CA-they're paying their servers at least $10 an hour before tips and they still employ exponentially more people.
I also question the idea that they are actually saving money by not employing more servers. If someone was solely in charge of maximizing food/drink revenue in the poker room, there is 0 chance they would choose to keep thirsty customers waiting for 30+ mins because there's one server for 300 people.
