A bit of a gripe at the ricoh coventry.
Although my nearest casino (still a 30 minute drive), I virtually go past its door on my way up to the Mecca that is DTD
Went up last night to play the 50 satelitte having phoned up to check that
a. it was on b. it was dealer dealt.
Got there paid my money checked with Kieran? if it was dealer dealt. He had just started his shift but said i think so.
Well suprise suprise it was self deal!!! Many thanks to those players that dealt.
I am and always have been an advocate that tournaments of a certain price or offering a certain prize (as in this case seats to a poker stars sponsored event) should be dealer dealt. Yes it is only a 50 quid tourney but so what. Here is an opportunity for a casino to show how efficient they are.
The casino knows it is getting players through its doors who normally play elsewhere and has a brilliant opportunity to show those new faces what they have to offer. Well Coventry you failed big time.
Wimbledon qualifiers at Roehampton without umpires? FA Cup qualifying rounds without referees? "The newest and best UK poker tour" ? - rubbish.
Added to the fact that the cardroom manager and staff couldnt be arsed to update the boards with runners and average chip stacks etc, and that most of the time when a player was out and the player dealing would shout player down he waas shouting to no-one as the desk area was empty. Add some interesting rulings by the td fortunately in hands I wasnt involved in, Coventry G Casino despite trying to offer "The Vegas" experience havent persuaded me to knock an hour off my journey time and play poker there rather than DTD.
An opportunity lost.
