I would never let this happen to me, I was just commenting on how scummy the players in the area can be. Never seen this anywhere else. Oh, and when the players complained to the floor, the floor said that it was "terrible etiquette" but legal.
Sigh.

I had a similar experience with a floorperson who told me I could not get a table change at my 4 handed game. There were plenty of other tables that weren't full and it was late enough at night (1ish) where nobody was on the waiting list. Her response was "and leave your game with even less people? Are you crazy?"
It was the older-ish lady floorperson whom all the regs grumble about, to anyone who is familiar with the room.
Thankfully, a different floorperson intervened soon after realizing how empty the table and was and offer to re-seat everyone.
To summarize, this place is not elegant. It is not the Borgata or some nice Vegas cardroom. But there's lots of activity and many great games to be had regardless of the atmosphere which is all a player should really care about.
