Re: Congratulations! You just became the manager of a Vegas poker room
Having a well-defined drop schedule makes it seem fair to the players. They don't like having to grovel for a break or feel like they are getting screwed if the floor doesn't do it. Also, MAKE THE GAME A TIME GAME. This keeps games going, especially short. Time pots may not make sense at 30-60, but if players want to do it, let them.
The host is key here, I think. Make sure they are fun to play with and will ensure that people have fun. If the regulars are nitty/annoying, it's the host's job to make sure they back off. That's part of the job.
