Massive Turnover in Caesars Palace Staff?
Earlier today, I spoke with a former floorperson of Caesars Palace (since they opened) who is now working in another big poker room on the Strip. According to this person, management has fired or driven away (this person quit) most of the staff of the poker room and replaced them with less experienced personnel.
I haven't been at Caesars Palace much lately except for this weekend. So, I haven't seen this myself. Does anybody else know anything about the current situation at Caesars Palace? |

Re: Massive Turnover in Caesars Palace Staff?
When I was in Vegas for the WSOP I played at Caesar's a couple times and one of the floorpeople (I forget his name - , maybe?) was really exceptional at his job - 6 of us came in drunk and asked if they'd start a $4/$8 HORSE game for us and he got a table up right away. A few nights later after the SSNL dinner he helped us start up 3 tables for all of us to donk around in a HORSE game (*TT* participated, and Mason Malmuth later stopped by and laid a brutal badugi cooler on me despite never having played the game before) which later turned into dealer's choice and a lot of hilarious variants - just like a home game basically, was a huge blast.
I was playing 2/5 at MGM towards the end of my trip and he sat down next to me - I started talking to him and he said he'd actually just quit at Caesar's because the management sucks. Stuff about how he was trying to help out the players as much as possible (which I def believe, cause he was awesome) but all the room cared about was the bottom line. He said he was going to work at Venetian after that. name edited out by *TT* to protect the innocent, we know that Harrah's corporate management read 2+2 on occasion |

Mason didnt even know the rules of Badugi but totally pwned you with his knowledge of the Theory of Poker. It just goes to show how amazing that book really is, you can create a new poker game and still be the best player at the table without even knowing the rules just by understanding the concepts within that book. Thanks to Mason's heavy beat on GoofyBaller he made me un-stuck, he was playing with my chips- hurray! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |

Apparently I missed the chapter on coolering 101. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img] It was like my 7-6 badugi which I'd been ramming and jamming to his 7-5.
This may not even be that sick since I don't know the game either, but it sure felt like it at the time, lol. |

[/ QUOTE ] when you have a rough 7 Badugi, the median Badugi is a clean 9, and your HU vs a very good card player its usually good to stop ramming and jamming at some point [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] |

Posted on a Dealers Website yesterday
"Today, the TWU, on behalf of the Dealers of Caesars Palace, has formally PETITIONED the NLRB for a VOTE for Union Representation!" I do not know if this included the poker dealers. I do know that the union organizers reached out to the poker dealers and asked them to sign Union Authorization Cards. |

I played at Ceaser's this Friday, and there was a new Tournament director.
Young Hispanic guy... possibly gay. Not that there is anything wrong with that. |
