I'm meaning the whole of section 4.0 not just bits & pieces.
Thinking back to watching games as either a spectator or as crowd control, it is a bit of a surprise to see who knows the rules & who doesn't (who should be game management & who shouldn't).
I'm almost tempted to ask everyone here in the area that does do table operations how well they do know the rules pertaining to their duties/responsibilities (however I'd be kind of afraid of what the response would be like).
