Unfamiliar Territory

For a lot of the Brits here, a live HORSE tournament can literally be an annual event. Several admit to not having played any limit poker at all since this time last year, although I won't name names. A little plaque next to the dealer tells everyone which game they're currently playing and a countdown of eight hands symbolized by a pile of yellow counters moved by the dealer keep everyone up to speed. However I am sure that there have already been misreads due to game-change neglect and that could be costly for those novice UK players who drift off a little.

The dealers aren't used to spreading Stud games, collecting antes etc., but they're professional and pick it up fast. Plus there's guaranteed to be one American at least per table quite happy to give direction...
