I recently played a tournament where most of it was correcting dealer mistakes such as mis-calculated stacks and correct change. Dealers bypassing player action and cards flipped over constantly while dealing. Poor level increase announcements and one level started where we played 8 hands without them starting the clock. There were 20 players left when one player went on for a 2 hour rant trying to negotiate a chop and berate a player for not accepting a deal. This player would talk about a deal while others were in hands and the floor did nothing until I finally lost my cool from this idiot badgering other players and constantly talking about chopping tourney. It distracted everyone from the game and ruined the tournament. There was no control from the floor.
