Big Tunica Change
Ken Lambert Jr. resigned his position as poker room manager at Horseshoe. He accepted a postion as Director of Poker Opperations for Gold Strike. I imagine some changes will come from both casinos in the near future as a result.

Re: Big Tunica Change
Keep us informed as much as possible. I want to cuise back down and play again but I won't go during the WSOP maddness so Febuaray is probably the soonest but it could be March. I would come down tomorrow if work and the Holidays didn't demand so much time.

Re: Big Tunica Change
One thing I've always loved about the shoe is how they take care of people.
I play there about once a week. Try to play some tourneys. I'm not a high roller btu they treat me like they treat everyone, with respect. Seems like every time I call or anytime I ask they treat me with a courtesy like no other. I wish I could name all the names but Mark, Dan, Susan, Dalesheeeesh EVERYONE there seems to be top notch. |

Re: Big Tunica Change
WOW ! That is a big change. You're right - probably lots of upcoming fallout and many good stories.
See you in 14 days. |

Re: Big Tunica Change
This should be interesting to say the least. Gold Strike definately need some direction.
Any predictions on the shoe? TJ? Dennis returning in Kennys place? |

Karen from the Grand was another. I'm sure Dale will put in for the job. T.J. wants the job. I don't even want to predict who they'll put into it. I just hope whoever gets the room cares as much about it as Kenny did. |

"How to screw up a top quality poker room in 60 days."
That reminds me of what an old timer vegas dude once told me about another female poker room manager (who was about to start running my favorite room at the time/ which is since long closed).... He said "Every place she has ever gone, she left the place in worse shape then when she got there". True to form.... When she got there, the room was very popular. When she was "let go", it was on it's last leg, lucky to get one table going each night. All in just a couple of months. Best of Luck Howard |

[/ QUOTE ] This is an ongoing problem our industry has. There are quite a few managers out there that get a room, mess it up, and then get anotehr room becasue they have experience managing a room. This patern may continue at the Horseshoe in TUnica if they go with one of the "experienced" poker room mangers in town instead of finding someone that knows poker. |
