Mardi Gras Casino in Hallandale Beach Florida

Went recently (after not playing for several months there) to clear out my points, and the same players were still there. (IMHO) I stopped playing there completely. Returned after a month, same players, same cheating. They told me they would have surveillance look into it.

I quietly 'complained' to floor supervisors, shift boss, etc. But there was a definite increase in the $$ coming off the table Only came into play once while I was there. They compensate for the increased rake+drop by giving high hand winners $300 instead of $100. It's unusual to play so many hands so quickly in a live setting. Overall, I really enjoyed the experience. Even the slow dealer got out more hands because nobody had to be prompted for their action or blinds. When we had a fast dealer the hands came and were played very quickly, in one 30 minute down, we saw 35 hands, and most of them had a flop. One old man wanted to sit at the game and they wouldn't let him because they knew he played very slowly and they sat him at a regular 1/2 game. Nobody had to be asked more than once to post their blinds and they knew when the action was on them. The game moved a lot faster than a normal 1/2 game because the players were all paying attention. Of course that was mostly the slower dealers who were saying that. The room manager asked me when I went to cash out, and I told him that some of the dealers were saying that it wasn't about them going fast, just the players who have 10 seconds to act. There seemed to be a little confusion among the dealers about exactly how they were supposed to work. I played the new 'speed' tables for about 5 hours. Had 10+ tables going with two PLO going at 4pm. Just visited Mardi Gras for the first time this past Tuesday.
