Unless the guy taking up two spots is a big John for the house or big George for the dealers I have never been told to go to some other opening.  Particularly this is true when Sl3 is occupied.  If it is not then take the spot as it becomes sl2 as it becomes yours with the placement of your tokens.  <br \/>\n\t  Now, I have been in a particular casino where my player card is not rated as high as someone else&#8217;s, and I have been moved down a spot, (by the pit boss or boxman) even though I was the first to place my card in the sl1 tray before the table opens. <br \/>\n\t   Today is a good day to be throwing, I just wish I were in a casino instead of at practicing at home.   \ud83d\ude00  \ud83d\ude00<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> Finisher on March 25, 2012, 9:07 pm<\/p>\n<div>Bman I try not to ask people any more after I did one day .

We are constantly harping on GTCer&#8217;s not to call negative attention to themselves and thru association us. This is a good example, especially on an empty table or not full. Why on earth would you want to call attention to yourself by barging or forcing your way onto the table at SL\/R 1 in this manner. If the crew knows you and asks the occupant to move down that&#8217;s one thing but to impose yourself is something different.<\/p>\n<p>\tPlaying under the radar, meek and mild should be the way.<\/p>\n<p>\tTo answer your question B-man &#8230; First, I don&#8217;t play on a full or close to full table, not when I know there&#8217;s another somewhere that&#8217;s not full. Second, if that&#8217;s the only spot open and I should ask were the person to refuse I would thank him and move on. No sense in making a fuss or calling attention to myself. The Crew is going to figure out what I&#8217;m about soon enough without making trouble for myself.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> the gman on March 25, 2012, 10:46 pm<\/p>\n<div>this is a very good thread for a bunch of lurkers&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>\n\tI donk ask any one to move, but what i find funny is a bunch of people that dont beleive in<br \/>\n\tdice control that have to have sl1.
