Mixed emotions

I went here after I heard about the promotion for a car. After checking in the wait list via Poker Atlas I entered the room as the next person on the for the game I wanted to play. Shortly thereafter I witnessed someone ask another guest what game he wanted to play. That player was escorted to a seat for the game I was next in line for. This did not give me a good first impression.

At some point after getting involved in the action I asked how the promotion was run. Several of the players responded with 'one of the brushes comes around hourly to record player info for entry'. At that point I asked the dealer if someone was going to come around. He responded 'I guess they're gonna do it'. As if he wasn't a member of they. Really disappointing the promotion I was there for was not being run fairly. They did, however, have someone come around to ensure players had paid for enough time and tip chips.

Apart from that I will admit the action was good.
