NL max buyin games? Casino/Floor people please read

[RegBarclay]

Thanks Rick and all others who posted.

I got our manager to side with me and we decided that in the future players from a broken game must carry their entire stack to their new seat while players who ask for a table change are restricted to the max buyin.

I think this is the fairest solution as we have 2-3 games at this limit at most. This means that often two to four players from the broken game end up playing at the same table again and they should have the chance to win back their money from the players they lost it to.

As for the ratholing argument I always thought (and still do) that the rule not to take money of the table is for this reason: All players at the table should have the chance to win back the money they lost from the persons they lost it to unless the winner(s) decide to leave the game. This is why I don't consider changing tables and putting the winnings in the pocket by doing so ratholing or bad etiquette as you will be playing at a new table where none of the players lost money to you yet.

Thanks again for all the input.
