How exactly does one do game selection in bricks and mortar card rooms?
Can you generally tell the floorman to put you on the list for another game, and then leave your current game when it is your turn to post the big blind?
Is it kosher to ask the floorman -- before you start playing -- who the regulars are that should be avoided? Can you ask them about how many people are staying for the flop?
I'm planning on going to the Taj in Atlantic City tomorrow (Saturday), so I'm interested. It'll be my first time in a B&M cardroom. I imagine that on a Saturday right before Christmas, it'll be tourist-heavy.
For the Taj specifically, anyone know how many and what types of games they are likely to be spreading? What times are tourists particularly prevalent?
Thanks.
