download the bravo Live app and you can see for your self, But usually I'd say during the week it's 1 or 2 at most of 5/10 and none of 10/20. During the weekend there is 2-3 of 5/10 and you might be able to get a 10/25 game going if you recruit enough people.

Pretty disappointing about the gtds for tournaments being revoked. Pretty much ruins any reputation you might of had as now people will be weary to play any tournaments as you've shown willingness to revoke gtds as you see fit.

William Mason,

What is the latest on this issue?

William Mason,

What is status on getting this change (posting of blinds for new players only)?

It would also be nice to see a structure sheet. I've looked around and cannot find one.

Just moved to Florida a few weeks ago. HR was always my fav room on trips before, and it remains my fav room. Switch to 5/10 time rake was awesome.

Couple other suggestions:

1) Please, please, please switch to smaller indexed cards (like every Vegas room). What's with every Florida poker room using the jumbo indexes? Do you not realize it's ruining the cards from people having to pinch them so hard/far? Plus, it's annoying. Please test out smaller indexed cards, which are technically called "regular" index.

2) Please switch out the table closest to the door in the high stakes room (I believe it's 24). It's the worst table in the entire room even though it's the most commonly used 5/10 table. Players are constantly spilling chips due to the huge slant around the edge of the felt, and to avoid doing so you have to keep your chips 3 inches from the rail. Plus, the plastic drink cup holders can't be used because they're tilted way too much when put under the rail on that slant. Players at the table complain about it all the time, but not sure if anyone mentions it to management...

That's all. Good job!

Moving to Miami soon from a non-casino state so I'm excited to hit this place up. How is the 1/1 game? Does it run frequently? I'm not quite rolled for 1/2 yet but I am excited to play some live again since it has been a while, I figure it wouldn't hurt to play some 1/1, perhaps build up so I can regularly play 1/2.

The cards have the jumbo index for our older guests. I spoke with the managers and they said they had not heard about table 24. I will request that facilities switch out table 24. Thanks for the feedback!

William Mason,

I heard that limit players are now only required to have 1 card in order to qualify for a high hand, why was this changed from them requiring 2 cards? We no limit player have fought for over a year to equal the playing field between no limit players & limit players and to have this done to no limit players is unfair.

It has been that way for a few months and we did that when we changed the payouts to giving the limit games only 300 for the high hand and the 1/2NL $400 and the 2/5 & 5/10NL $600. We will be making adjustments in November to the high hand payouts and rules along with a couple other changes to coincide with the WPT Regional.

William Mason,

Hopefully some of the changes will be geared to benefit the NL players who risk more when compared to limit players.

Some suggestion:

1. The higher the stakes (the higher the risk) the bigger the high hand payout.
2. Add a 60 hour and 100 hour interval gift card payout.
3. Higher high hand payouts for graveyard shift players (For example, Isles casino has same high hand payout thru out the day).
4. Add poker promotions for grave yard shift.
5. Have high hands every single hour of the day and not skip some hours during graveyard hours.
6. No splash the pot tournament satellites specially the $30-$75.
7. Higher Poker comps $$$/ hour for players playing higher stakes (Similar to Isles casino).

Thanks.

How much do you think the jackpot/promo drop should increase to accommodate these changes?

And as to #1, how much more should be taken from the higher-stakes tables in jackpot/promo drop to accommodate that change? Are you sure that higher-stakes players would want a higher jackpot/promo drop? It seems to me like they'd be players who would want the status quo or a decrease.

No increase on the rake or jackpot rake. Actually, I would prefer if both rakes were decreased but I dont think that will happen.

So... where do you expect the money to come from?

From the jackpot and rake pool. A higher percentage of the combined rake pool and promotions should be payed to the NL players IMO since we are the ones taking the most risk and usually there are more NL tables going than Limit tables.

For example total jackpot and rake pool = $100

Award 75% to NL players and 25% players to limit players. No extra rake increase whatsoever.
