I have learned from my "mentor" that building a rolodex of numbers of people that inhabit the room's highest-limit and specialty games is a very vital part of a room. 5/10NL and up? Get their numbers. PLO players? Get their numbers. That group of guys that want to start a mid-high O/8 game twice a week? Get their numbers. Want a mix game? Let me get your number.
Then don't just let that plethora of numbers sit and collect dust on the phone. Network. "When do you guys want to get Game X going? I got 6 guys interested." Some games will go almost daily. Others will go strong twice a week. Others will materialize out of nowhere as stated when a fish with deep pockets shows up.
This goes beyond what a high limit floorman should do, its what floor/managers of rooms that wish to have games beyond the 1/2NL 2/4-3/6LHE fare should do.
