Here's a posting from a local blog (hope that is ok to post. I will take out the blog name) This provides some useful info: August 2, 2010 — I have been able to put in two successful sessions in the past two days, both at the Rivers. I have yet to visit the Meadows, although I plan to do so very soon. As far as the Rivers goes, I am able to put in an updated review and this is what I have noticed. Floor: The floor has become much more acclimated with the action of the room and they appear to be moving the lists much more quickly. The Bravo system does not appear to running smoothly just quite yet, although I did not have more than a 20 minute wait during peak hours on Sunday or Saturday this past weekend. Dealers: The dealers have shown marked improvement, although there still is a lot to be desired. Although, in the te couple of weeks, I have noticed a consistent upgrade in the amount of mistakes, hand reading, personality, etc. Action: The action in the room is still top notch. Granted, nothing could have been much fishier than the first week, but I have yet to sit down at a table and not notice at least 3 easy marks. Drink Service: To be honest, I think it has actually gotten worse. I noticed two waitresses only during the peak hours of both Saturday and Sunday of this past weekend. If there were more, they were nowhere to be seen and this is clearly a problem. Cage: I have to commend the cashiers at the cage for moving much more quickly in cashing in/out players and have yet to stand in a line of more than 2 people, which is a drastic improvement over what was taking place during the opening week. Bad Beat: The Rivers has begun a bad beat jackpot. I am not certain of the qualifying
hands, but I believe I heard Aces Full beaten by quads or better, both players holding pocket pairs and the boat holding pocket aces. Don’t quote me on this though as I didn’t check myself. I did notice that they are awarding jackpots for high hands, including straight flushes and four of a kind 10′s – Aces. I like the addition of the high hands to the bad beat jackpot.
