The poker room is never ever smokey. Smoking is not allowed in the poker room. The smoking area is far enough away from the room to make it smokey. There are other areas of the casino that can get smokey if you walk through it.

so if someone busts out, would you rather him keep buying in right away and play the next hand, or would you want him to wait about 5 to 10 hands while a chip runner gets his chips? I would prefer he get right back in the game, especially if he's losing or donating. First buy-in's are never exchanged at the table by the dealer. they need to go to the cage.

So no one showed up, which I assume also included you? The reason for this is no one wants to play short so they stay in their games (like you did) and keep looking to see if it fills up. If 10 people just got up right away, the game would have gone off.
