Default Re: Treasure Island, Red Wing, MN-Trip Report

Went there last night with a 2+2 friend.

We started off in a great 3/6 game with a drunken Canterbury dealer that had been playing and drinking since 5 am. The floor was making him drink two bottles of water for every alcolholic drink.

For some stupid reason we leave this gold mine, and start up a 4/8 game. Apparently they play 4/8 with $2 inner-labia-pink chips in Red Wing. And wow, did it kill the action. Of course by the time we realize this, the 3/6 list is 10 names long.

Never the less, we enjoyed ourselves. A pleasently supprising room. Floor was good, dealers as mentioned were a little weak but acceptable. Also, non-players are basically banned from the room. Yeah, they can come in to say hello, but after that the floor boots them out. Something about the room being too small already and they're afraid of overcrowding.

Cons: $2 chips, salmon pink felt, the tables are 3" too high, and have no leg room for the 2-3 and 8-9 seats. No rail.

Pros: Electronic board with phone-ahead service. Players that suck.
