I understand that there is a difference between the CNE experience and that which you would find at a regular casino. However, I think this has to be expected. A lot of the dealers are working the tables for the first time; Training is relatively minimal and being thrown to the wolves only compounds the problem. We've found that almost all new dealers in all games, not just poker, were nervous during their first few shifts - mistakes were bound to happen.

I can't speak directly for the poker dealers as I work in the the Spanish 21 pit, however, I know most of them and talk to them hourly when on break. Everyone is much calmer now that a week has gone by - I think everyone can look forward to the action running much smoother. All you as a player can do is cut them a little bit of slack. No one will improve quickly in an environment where they feel as though they are not welcome.
They still only put out 14-20 hands an hour, they are terrible dealers regardless of what part of the summer you go and play. Sure, this is to be expected from people who have never dealt before, but it doesn't make them any less awful. If I play there, I know what to expect and don't berate anyone. But they are still horrible.

Re: The Ex. ....

At the end of the day this place is open 1 month a year I don't expect the best dealing or service (a lot of line jumping going on with the list...oh well, thats what happens when people know each other)

There is no session fee so I could less how slow the dealers deal, I mean at the end of the day its a game of patience and it actually puts the other players on tilt when the dealer can't deal. Use that to your advantage.

Yeah, there is no profit to playing more hands an hour, good point.

Sorry I wasn't taking that into consideration....I guess because I am never there for more than 3-4 hours..unlike at Rama where I may spend 8-12hours....
