I was able to color up to large denomination chips at the brush I think more out of fluke then anything, so I wouldn't take it as always available.Īs for concern about action with the 100% buy up to the large stack rule. You can buy chips at the brush area but cannot sell them. Then in about 30 minutes we had a full table. We asked for reduced rake and the floorman said they do not offer reduced rake at all. Originally the new table they called 10 people, only 5 people sat down in the first 10 minutes. Overall I had a good couple hours there, dealers were a tad slow but you know it is what it is (actually no misdeals now that I think back on it).
I would expect Columbus to be similarly full Friday/Saturday/Sunday as it was Monday for the first few weeks. There was a bit of a queue to get chips and talk to the brush for a seat but wasn't bad as the stories I heard about Cleveland. Last night I walked in at 8pm and there were probably 9 unused tables and they just sat a new 1/2NLHE game. Monday I didn't go but looked at Bravo app a few times through the night and they had all 30 tables full with a 30-40 person waitlist for 1-2NLHE (which was 21 of the 30 tables).
I'm also not hearing 2 hour waits to get in the poker games. but I don't hear things like that aboutColumbus. For those who have been, how crowded has it been? I remember reading about Cleveland having lines just to get in the door.
