I'll admit that I wrote that when I was upset about something else and had a few drinks in me, and it reads like more of a whine than the valid complaints that I hold against the casino. Additionally I'll conceded that I could have a skewed perception based on a very small sample size.
You however are inferring things that I did not imply:
I think the terrible floor decisions I have seen there force the dealers into situations where it is impossible for them to be good dealers. There are however two distinct instances where I saw the floor make a horrible ruling and I went out of my way to tell the dealer they did things correctly, but the floor was clearly wrong.
The subtle nudging and coaching by dealers I witnessed was in the 2/5 and in reality wasn't any worse than what I have seen thousands of times in small games.
I do have friends that are horrible dealers, and I have friends that are great dealers. They are all still my friends and my oppinion of their professional performance doesn't change that.
Second, I have spent way more time reading this forum than a man my age should admit to.
In the end, every time I have been in there I was there to play a specific game, 5/10 Mondays or 5/5PLO Tuesdays. Every time I have waited for no less than 2 hrs for a game to start, while there were 5+ names on the list. Even not starting with 8 names on the list. Every time I have seen something in the poker room that left a very bad taste in my mouth, whether I came away winner or loser on that session.
It just isn't worth driving 10 miles to play there if you could drive 40 and go to a far better casino or card room in/around Seattle.
