I recently played in a small tournament with $60 buy-in, which I think is great! Some of us are not poker professionals - we just like to play cards. I don't follow the world poker tour, nor do I know all the right moves or terminology while playing poker. But the one thing I don't do is cheat. They had us so crowded at the table that the guys next to me saw my hand a couple of times. I'm left handed so I have to be careful how I look at my cards. I can thank the silver cup holder for seeing the player to my left catching a glimpse over my shoulder. When asked to move down and give some room - he barely budged. I threw my next hand in disgust and left for the evening. If I go back again I will definitely insist on a little more room to be able to play comfortably without someone looking over my shoulder. Just be aware. ... Other than that, game play was good, staff was helpful, and for the most part the other players were having fun. I still had a good time.
