AGREED 100% Nikky ! The citation amounts of $1,000 and $5,000. I'm sure that put a huge dent in the hold for table games that day. Hell, they probably held upper 90% on BJ. The gaming agency that levied the casino with this citation should really be ashamed of their selves.
$5,000 for the second offense? Are you sure these numbers are accurate? If so that is a very shady place. I've heard of similar incidents where the casino was short decking patrons ( not on purpose ) because the floor supervisors were too lazy to verify that all cards were there when the shuffler "red lighted". They discovered the missing cards when they caged the decks out, tis s hen they discovered they were 10 cards short. This specific casino was fined upper $20K ( for the first offense) and ~$50k for the second offense, both occurred within a 30 period. In this state, the agency in charge of overseeing operations threatened to pull the properties license if it happened again for multiple reasons. Mainly protecting the integrity of the other caisinos that they regulate. The new policy they implemented was any time a red light came on the shuffler; the floor had to pull the cards, and verify that every card was there by counting every card. In the process of them verifying the cards they would instruct the dealer to hand shuffle.
You mention you played tourneys there, I’m curious of what the rake is on the cash games, ha.
IMHO, I'd seriously contemplate staying away from that place. No poker, bj, or even VP, they don’t deserve anyone’s business. Let them self-destruct, sounds like a damn speak easy if you ask me.
