Canterbury drama last night
 
A well-known 15/30 player (board name starts with G) was 86'd for using up his effinheimer quota.

He was irate about this and was discussing it with floorman Mike. G maintained that he did not say M_r F_r, but did say specifically "Modda Fodda".

He was told that he would have to take the matter up with higher management tomorrow (meaning today).

G was not happy with that and said "Mike you are a joke and should be embarrassed about the way you run this place".

G then talked to Francis with 2 security men standing by.

LOL, I cant believe this made NVG. It was the infamous gennady. I talked to him this morning and he said he was drunk. He is banned until further review. Thats usually like 3-6 months.

I don't know the floor's last names.

Also, a correction. It wasn't Francis he talked to after Mike. I forgot the name though [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

What does everyone think of the Canterbury in regard to service, game selection, tournaments? I'm new to the area and have no idea how the place is perceived

Re: Canterbury drama last night
 
game selection? all of the games are good. so you just select whatever one you want.

i cant stand the floor director there. My friend got into it with him a couple of years ago. Very unprofessional IMO

I love the place. Dealers generally do a good job keeping games under control while maintaining an average to above average speed. Games are laggy and food is good.

I guess thats all it takes to keep me happy...

the best part about CCC is walking in there every so often and seeing the exact same [censored] you saw the previous time you went. fat degens everywhere, a lot of horrid dealers and "the guy" at every table who MUST chat with the dealer on a first name basis about personal stuff because hey, he knows this guy outside of work, and that should impress you.

True story: In a tourney guys all in (but dealer failed to realize that). I call, preflop, w pocket kings. Guy threw down his hand in disgust. Dealer mucks it and ships me the pot.

Floor called. The guy was able to tell the floor what cards he had,they dug around the muck for them, and they played it out. (i still won, but had to sweat a flush draw on turn and river). Floor there is rather stupid and dealers mess up too many times for my liking.

What? The floor at Canterbury is awesome. Where do you play where the floor is better? I'm sure the answer will be hysterical. I've played in a lot of rooms and Canterbury is by far the best run room I've ever been in.

Lets see, because hopefully I can show you will how stupid it is to make a thread in NVG on something that is practically an everynight occurrence, so that when I see a thread entitled "Canterbury drama" it wont be a waste of my time to read it.

I dont mind the place, but i dont like a lot of the dealers there.

as an example,

I was playing 3 6 or 4 8(lol micros) and i get 9 5 off in the bb checks to me, we see a flop and i flop two pair, and turn a boat(ship the small pot!)

I give the dealer a 2 dollar tip and he looks at me and mutters under his breath "i gave you a full house..." obviously not satisfied with my generosity.

I decided to be a gentlemen about it and not say anything and luckily he rotated to the next table 5 minutes later.



I also have a couple of friends that work in the cage and we have gotten into discussions about hitting the jackpot and how much we would tip the dealer. I figured 4 or 500 would be enough, but i guess a lot of the dealers are EXPECTING 2 to 3 grand and anything less is an insult.

Is this during days, maybe? CP is my home room and I just have never seen any of this in hundreds of hours of play.

FWIW, the BBJ is so big there you should be tipping like a grand on an average one. But hey, it certainly ain't 2 or 3.

this was the worst nvg thread I've read in a long time. OMG someone said a swear word in a poker room. I want the last 2 minutes of my life back.

Speel Posher 11-09-2007 02:16 AM

Re: Canterbury drama last night
 
this incident was during the day, and ya i see your point, but it is still a tip.

I had a friend hit it and he gave the dealer 6 or 700 i think and from what my friend in the cage had said...the dealer was really pissed.

for me personally it depends on the size of the bbj and whether or not the dealer is doing a good job, being courteous, respectful etc.


they shouldnt expect money though imo

hoppscot22 11-09-2007 02:18 AM

Re: Canterbury drama last night
 
haha if it is gennady this is completely standard. and as mitch said this happens pretty much every day to someone, a warning at least.

i was hoping there would be some actual good drama to read in this thread, im disapointed.

No you don't come off like a prick, I agree there a good handful of dealers at CP that are pricks...especially the guy with the shades he just looks like a prick and yep he is. a buck tip isn't good enuf for him in a huge pot and next hand he chucks cards at me and deliberately causes one to flip and of course its an A. I dont even know if he still works there. My favorite dealer is Canadian Larry hes always upbeat and appreciates tips immensely.

i mean if that is what the dealer said than he/she is the prick so I wouldnt sweat it. Its a shame that the whole joint has to get a reputation, bc of a few bad apples.
