Default Re: The great Muckleshoot blunder of \'05

You are calling the Muck's drawings generous? Alllll those FH and Quad tickets handed out every day, so they can give away a thousand dollars three days a week? It certainly looks busy the way casinos do.

But really.... for a place that is collecting something close to $5000 a day in jackpot drops day in and day out - it vanishes into a black hole.

My last trip south I played at the Last Frontier in La Center. Seven tables, and they give away $250 to the high hand every hour on the hour - that's *more* than they can collect in jackpot drops even if they drop every pot at every table.

I still went back to the Muck since it was otherwise nicer. Are other cardrooms really so stingy with jackpot payouts that the Muck looks generous? (Too bad the fish and the casino management wouldn't go for a clever idea like getting rid of both the jackpot and the drop. There's an idea I'd like.)

Jsut for the record, could a regular at the Muck give an idea how much the bad beat normally increases from one day to the next? It has always been between 30 and 32k every time I've played, and its never been changed at approximately 6PM like the sign on the wall says it will be. I am taking it on faith that they really do update it sometime every day and it does bear some relationship to how much they drop.....
