Playing a small tournament there we get down to 3 people (Payouts $150, $275, $450 roughly). We all agree to do an ICM chip chop. After a few minutes the floor says "Well , it's basically what's on the board so you get 1st, you get 2nd and you get 3rd. " I was short but still had $160k. He expected me to chop and take third place money when I was guaranteed third place money anyway. Got annoyed when I objected and we had to keep playing. Also had a ruling later that night from a different floor man that was just as ridiculous. Floor people here are clueless, most of the dealers are terrible and cocktail service is spotty. I couldn't figure out why a comfortable strip poker room with a $4 rake was having trouble holding one game. Now I know.
