Re: Four Winds - New Buffalo.
I really look forward to playing on the tables.I sent an Email asking about rake and what they are going to try to spread. 50 hands an hour sounds alot better than 32. also, you dont have to tip a computor. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Four Winds - New Buffalo.
Rake is 10% $5 max and at that rate 50 hands an hour that will bring in $250 an hour. If the game keeps going strong for 24 hours then that table will bring in $6000 for the casino. Times 19 tables Four Winds could make $114,00 the first day. Anybody playing the 2-4 limit game I wish them the best of luck.
