ha ha... thats Ken... (I believe). Puts a smile on my face just thinking about him. He usually plays 2/5 and says he went to LA (Bicycle Club) to study this style of poker. I like playing at the same table as him... as it stirs up a lot of action.... "ALL IN!"

Default Re: \"Regulars\" at the Borgata....

I rarely play at the Borgata, and when I do, it's not $5/$10 or $10/$25... but I've heard my fair share of Rocco stories. He's been around. He knows the game and I'm sure he's got a good gauge for what is and is not appropriate banter at the poker table. If he said something along the lines "Hey Kid, shush," I doubt it was unwarranted.

As far acting like he's a higher-up, or someone that you should know who you're talking... well, he kinda is. When in Rome...

Rocco's apparently pretty well known to A.C. dealers, when I went through dealer school all the Caesars guys knew him.

He tells me "I don't know who I'm dealing with." I tell him I know exactly who I'm dealing with, and that's the whole point.

Your lucky he did not have you fitted for "cement shoes".

I know Rocco pretty well. I consider him a good fella (pun intended) [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Now you are implying something that I of course figured, but had no reason to believe. I am pretty sure he plays poker for a living though - am I wrong?
