so which is it. Self part at M.Carlo, or just self park at Aria?
i'll peak at the floor map, hope it's online..
If you don't mind driving on LV Blvd, then Aria Self Park will be less of a walk to the Aria room that MC Self Park. If you valet, you can literally pull up to the door that is maybe a couple of hundred feet from the poker room.
I'm wondering about table selecting in this room when its busy. Are their any floor people who are known to point you in the direction of the best games in the Aria for a red chip or two (hopefully knowledgeably, rather than randomly)?
Just pull into main aria/city center entrance off the strip. Stay leftmto self park. I parked on level 2 and u just take the elevator to 3 and the 2min crosswalk to the entrance. Down the escalator and u enter the casino at the poker room.
Couldn't have been easier or quicker.
Great room. Beautiful chairs, felt, chips, decor and lighting. No cup holders is my only issue.
Worst floor call ever I must say first that I did nothing wrong up to this time. I go all in and get 2 callers I flip my cards thinking that I had one caller. I win the hand and am given a 5 hand penalty NO worning just boom 5 hands. I was also told by the TD that it is a rule of the room that NO wornings are EVER given out it is always miss hands penalties. This is breaking TDA rule #1. If any one has been given a worning let me know. No need to say I WILL NEVER GO BACK.
PokerBob, I've played this tournament a lot and my experience has been that any premature exposing of cards is a penalty. Also, when they announce the rule at the beginning, I've heard them say that announcement constitutes the only warning.

Its not uncommon for weak floor people to like a non-discretionary rule ... so that they don't need to make a decision. I don't think players should have to be given warnings (after all its pretty well known rule that you can't be exposing your cards). But a floor person should be able to evaluate a situation and determine whether a warning is warranted or a penalty, or even disqualification.
I rarely play that tournament but the last time I did there was a situation in two players were in the hand one made a bet on the turn of most of his chips the other called and appeared to think the first player was all-in ..... the dealer recognized this and very loudly said "Don't show yet he still has chips" But player two turned up his hand anyway. Then compeletely inexplicably player one turned up his hand.
The floor did not impose any penalties .... though part of that decision may be the fault of the dealer who when telling the floor what had happened .... left out the part where she had warned the players not to show there hands.
There was nothing suspicious about the play and both their hands made sense for the action ... I think a penalty might have been appropriate ... but I certainly don't think not penalizing them was out of line either ....

Yes, their speech at the start of the tournament go over this matter among a few others and they do say this is your one and only warning.
