TJ was hired by Vito just before he (Vito) got kicked out the door and TJ stayed on as a board ops/chip runner after Jim got put into place.

Dunno the circumstances of how TJ got moved up to floor, but I do know a person or two who knew TJ from back East - he used to play in the city and other spots around there and supposedly did a gig at Borgata for awhile.

As far as the lineup thing goes, I know how the lineups were run there, and I know that when Dwight was running the lineup he would veer the crappy dealers away from the "big games" that came in as well, like around All-Star Weekend.

And the the way the lineups were and likely are still put up were crappy as hell from what I've been told. You may have had 4 live games on the night you mentioned, raisebot, but I know there were likely tourney tables littered all over the lineup as well.

The Jason/Rich thing blows my mind.
