Management might be ok at Gilpinj meaning upper management but they have some of the worst floor people in town.....

I'm curious why you think this. Have you had bad experiences with the floor or had calls made that weren't in your favor? FWIW, business is gradually getting busier and busier and there are nightly "regulars" making the Gilpin their home base so to speak. I seriously doubt this would happen if we had the worst staff in town since there are other rooms to choose from.

Please let me know why you think the floor staff is so bad.

maybe i catch them on bad nights - i have been in when the floor had to call another floor over cause they didn't know the answer. The moving button sucks cause it slows down the game when the dealers don't know how it works - although this is getting better.
We had one dealer one night not rake (which was ok with me). Then the next hand he takes a $1 out of the pot and puts it in his tip box, then uses the $1 tip to rake. He had no clue what he was doing and I have never seen a slower dealer. Moving tables can be a nightmare because the floor is running around like a chicken with their head cut off. As for regulars - you find that everywhere. I just don't happen to like the Gilpin and don't visit but I am sure others do like it. To each his own.

There is 1 good floor person there. I don't know his name but he is good. Skinny guy with short black hair - everyone else is worthless. but like I said everyone has their reasons for playing where they play. I really wish the Gilpin good luck. It is set up to be a very nice place to play and I know they are going through growing pains being hte newest room.

I've never seen anything like what you describe here. Also, the moving button is infinitely better than the dead button and I've not had any dealers not know how to run it. Just because you don't understand why you have to post a small blind on your button doesn't mean that nobody else does. The floor goes out of their way to help you with whatever you want, be it table changes or anything else. The dealers are as good as any other place and they're much friendlier on average, too. Maybe you were there when the room first opened. Of course there was some confusion then and people were getting into the flow of things, but it's a different story now. The room is busier and there are donks spewing chips to be found at every table.

If you want to play other games, The Gilpin offers those, too. They spread Omaha, Stud, and a choice game and will open one up whenever there are players who want to play it.

Whatever. I just don't see why you'd rag on the Gilpin so much when they're clearly making the greatest effort to serve the players out of any room in town.

Like I said - everyone likes rooms for different reasons. I gave you mine why I don't like it. If you like it go play htere and be happy. IMO they have the worst staff and dealers - just 1 mans opinion. You seem to take it a little personal or what??? And no I was there just a few weeks ago for my last time and nothing had changed since the open. The dealers still can't explain and get the moving button right (not all but some). So go have your fun at the Gilpin. I just won't. I prefer other rooms.

On another note - making an effort doesn't make you a great room. Like I said before you got your panties in a wad, I wish them luck but I prefer other rooms for the reasons I stated.
