Default Re: Wynn management: pathetically incompetent? or just plain jerks?

While I agree this is a stupid thing for Wynn to do I'm not sure I understand why so many players leave instead of just switching tables.
It certainly can't be that much of a hassle....but from Al's tone I gather that moving a table like that is almost a sure-fire way to get players to leave which I think is somewhat interesting.

You can get away with moving a new game, but moving an ongoing game is always a disaster. Usually at least half the pallyers leave when you move a game. On a related note I hate to combine games because if you have 2 six handed games and try to combine you end up with one 8 handed game.
A lot of times games continue because poker players don't want to rack up and leave, once htey are racked up and standing that is as good of a time as any to leave.

The key is to never move a game that has gone all night and players just need the slightest excuse (like you said, racked and standing up) to leave. But if you have a very good reason moving a normal game where most players are in the middle of their playing day is doable.
