Re: San Jose: more tables and No Limit action in 2008?
I talked to Mike, the shift manager on Friday nights. The issues to changing are as follows:
1) WHile Bay 101 has plenty of room to add tables, Garden City doesn't have the room. So he thinks they will fail in their quest to add 9 tables;
2) Bay 101 doesn't really want to have no limit. They feel it will kill all their 8-16, 20-40, 40-80, and 100-200 tables, like it did at some of the other Bay Area Casino's that added no limit. (Lucky Chances is a prime example, I think).
Personally, I would love to see the additional tables because Fri-Sat-Sun, the waits are horrendous. I would also love to see the 8-16 tables moved to 10-20, so we wouldn't have to use all the damn $2 chips on the big bets...but that won't happen as Bay 101 thinks the players like having those huge stacks of chips. That is why they $5 chips on the 20-40 games rather than $10 chips...
