I smoke - maybe too much. I have no problem with having to go into the sub culture of an outside dungeon to salve my awful habit. I have also tried the e-cig fad and would still go to the outside area. I believe all types of inhalation devices should be not allowed inside the confines of a public area end of, it should be a clear rule and everyone will know where they stand.

Oh and I wash my hands after toilet visits and I don"t pi$$ on people.  ;D

I could smell the different flavours wafting around the casino, some guy was constantly bellowing clouds of coffee flavoured vapour about, tbh I wouldn"t of noticed a neutral vapour but strong flavours like coffee and cinnamon can be "irritating".

Also there where girls going around the casino selling e-cigs a little like they used to sell choc ices at the cinema, so obv a money making ploy by casino..

Think the problem is the users.....

I am a smoker, and i gave up for 6 months with help of an e-cig.  I would use them in casinos, but i wouldnt puff on it 24/7 like some of the idiots you see in the casino.

However, as a player, i love it when i have one of those players on my table.....puffing away, mid hand, they give away a lot about the strength of their hands.  Its an old tell that i picked up in the old days when smoking was allowed and it still stands


I know what you mean Dann... I once had someone eating Oreo"s at the table... easy money!

Nice Rounders reference! The girl selling them at the casino on Sunday/Monday had a lovely smile.

Hi all

I played Event 1 earlier in the week, and really enjoyed the tournament, with one exception.

Two players at my table were smoking e-cigarettes available at
ecigfiend. One of the players was two seats from me and he was constantly puffing away. This caused both a horrible smell and an unpleasant smoky atmosphere.

I don"t understand why these are allowed at the table. Presumably these are replacements for real cigarettes, and cigarette smokers have to wait for breaks or leave the table to smoke. Why is it not the case for these e-cigarettes too?

Now I realise there aren"t the same passive smoking issues, but it does make the atmosphere unpleasant!

Would appreciate other people"s thoughts. Maybe if the majority of other people agree, APAT could do something about it...

Cheers

Patrick


E-cig definitely is not good when it comes to taste but it is much better option than analog smoking..
