Re: Playing at the same place you deal.

One of my players told me he saw a table full of dealers, in uniform, at circus circus playing. They were just playing for the bad beat, all calling pre-flop then checking everything down. Assuming...

Re: Checking it down

Discussing the hand while in play has become accepted as angeling here. I know that 3-4 years ago this wasn't the case and a local card room threatened me with a lifetime ban for doing it. City wide,...

Re: Playing at the same place you deal.

I was surprised when I was in Vegas this summer and the girl sitting to my right got up, and then sat down in the dealing chair 5 minutes later. I would love to play where I deal, but it's clearly...
