Default Re: Mohegan Sun Poker Room???

[ QUOTE ]

I heard that when the Mohegan Sun Poker room was shut down some dealers were part of the drugs/prostitution being run there. The way it allegedly worked was, the dealers were given big tips and would direct the players to their pleasure of choice.

This, plus the fact that the episode apparently left Mohegan management so squeamish about poker that they waited four years into the poker craze to reopen the room, strike me as reasons to suspect that tips will be pooled, as a measure to protect against actual or perceived impropriety. Also, since the only other room in the market pools tips, they wouldn't have to worry that pooling would drive top dealers to the competition.

That said, as a potential customer, I'd love to hear that the dealers will pool tips. Waterfall, how good is your source on this claim?
