another option whic  i detest is after 3 hands missing from a table you post a bB every hand

this soon gets rid of your chips and is used in the international casino

personally i hate it as it means rushing when going to bathroom and certain people not washing ther hands

also if you are going for a pee and a smoke you go for one rush back to table see a hand dealt then off again

Grov's had this for a while aswell but it's like putting Kev in charge of the buffet, JUST WRONG

They still have it during  rebuy tournys with guarenteed prizepools (only during the rebuy period). I wonder why

i left in sept 07 and it had been taken of the rules a few mnths before that, any Grosvenor cardroom still using it should be named and shamed on here, I know that although he does'nt post on here that russell (head of Grov's cardrooms) does read posts.

This was happening at Walsall, albeit only during the rebuy period in prizepool guarenteed tournys, after the rebuy period finished it reverted back to only post when its your turn in sb/bb

I remember at meetings the gm of Walsal paul was unhappy because they had to top up prize funds when they guaranteed games, it was when they started charging extra for comps you'll prop find that he has told staff to do it that way so people stay in their seats so they keep re-buying, which is against the national Grosvenor rules   ...... UNLESS THEY HAVE CHANGED THEM IN THE LAST 3 MNTHS. But seeing as that was a old rule we got rid of i cant see them bringing it back so soon.

Its pretty obv why they do it, as you have also posted, it shouldnt happen but it does.
It only happens in gtd tournys the others use the sb/bb rule

Lets face it most of the td's in england at least for Grosvenor are a shower of shite, the meetings when we all used to come together where a joke you had people running these comps who where totaly clueless.

Despite what rules you agree with or not if it's in the rules you follow it.

Now don't get me wrong apart from danny at dtd I think that grosvenor has the best top 10 td's in england but it's the other 30 that Grosvenors got that bring the whole thing to a holt.

Zac at Walsall is very good too. If you have any suggestions in possibly improving something, hes always willing to listen
