The player concerned then asked that the clock be called on himself. In the first instance, the dealer totally ignored Danette’s request. On this occasion, after a reasonable period of time, Danette asked the dealer who’s name was Bo, to call the clock on him. Now this ‘gentleman’ had been delaying over his hand almost every time it was his turn to act in a deliberate attempt to run the clock down. He was wearing a black shirt, had sandy coloured hair and wore glasses. A player who’s name I do not know, was in a hand and had been faced with a decision for his tournament life or close to it. I was standing behind the bollard watching her play. In the course of our discussions he mentioned that his main job was at the Venetian Poker Room.Īt approximately 11.15pm on Sunday May 29, Danette was in the nightly second chance tournament with 21 players remaining. His service was outstanding, a credit to his employer. We did not have players cards so whilst we were registering he even went to the membership desk and had our cards printed so that we would not miss any of the satellite we were entered in. When we arrived he personally walked us to the ATM and then to the cage. The gentleman’s name was Jacob, his last name we do not know. When we arrived we were met by one of the most helpful floor people I have ever met. The story starts a few weeks back when my wife Danette and I went to the Sunset Station for their $200k guaranteed series. The events that took place on Sunday the 29th of May during the nightly 7pm tournament place huge question marks over the integrity of of this poker room. It is fair to say that I have been a vocal and great supporter of their room. I have directed many players into the room, played in countless events, made final tables of their Deepstacks tournaments and personally know several of the staff. I want to start by saying that I have been a long term supporter of the Venetian Poker Room. I have been around poker for a long time now and have seen some ordinary behaviour by players, but what I witnessed tonight at the Venetian Poker Room was a disgrace. Here is long version from players husband: How does player get disqualified after repeated warnings and then allowed back in tournament? Women open shoves very next hand on bubble as to not have to deal with drunk and busto Guy is drunk taking too long every hand near bubbleĭrunk has clocked called on him dealer doesnt act on itįinally clock was given and drunk berates women player & husband on railĭrunk drops F bombs and many insults to, whole table, wifey and husband on rail
