West Palm Beach Poker Room
According to a thread that popped up on 2+2 a couple of days ago, a group of more than thirty people have been banned from the London's Palm Beach Casino for shortstacking and bumhunting at the live tables.
Although this is a hearsay type of information, several posters confirmed the scenario, describing more or less same details. A group of some 35 players who regularly played at the Palm Beach were barred because their overall behavior at and around the tables was bad for the games.
Posters who are, according to their own statements, more familiar with the situation, explained that these players were creating an unpleasant atmosphere for other regulars and even more so recreational players who just wanted to enjoy the games. Their unfriendly approach and short stack strategy did not sit well with the other patrons as it ruined the experience for them.

Although a few posters did say that players belonging this group would often soft play each other and try to enter pots against the fish together, it seems that the biggest reason for the ban resides with the fact that their presence in the poker room was simply bad for business.
Reactions to the news mostly positive
It would seem that the vast majority of people participating in the discussion condone the decision by the casino management, despite of it being rather controversial. There is no doubt that bumhunting and berating recreational players is bad for the game, but few posters did also express some valid concerns.
If this story is true, it sets an interesting precedent. It is one thing to ban people for cheating and / or colluding, but issuing bans on the basis of being unfriendly and bad for the game is an interpretation that can really be stretched.

While the big number of banned people on this particular occasion indicates that they were probably acting in their best interest without any regard for the other patrons and the sustainability of the games they were playing in, the question is where does one draw the line?
Most live winners are probably not good for the games at some level, apart from those who also contribute the entertainment value, so why would casinos even let them play? After all, most recs will be the happiest if they play against the players of a similar skill level and from a casino stand point, these games will most likely result in more rake.
Of course, in a lot of casinos, regs do play their role as they often start the games which wouldn't run without them, but otherwise, casino staff doesn't have too many reasons to like winning players, especially since some of them are not too big on tipping either.

In the light of things as they were presented, however, I must say that on this particular occasion, the casino has probably done the right thing and it may make some people think twice before entering the next game without any regard for other players there. After all, poker is a social game and without that social aspect, it will (as it already has in part) lose its allure with recreational players.
Palm Beach Dog Track Poker
This is one of the things Daniel Negreanu likes to talk about and he is spot on in saying that you need to make the amateurs feel welcome. You may be playing for the money, but they are there to have fun, and if it is no fun, they will take their money elsewhere.
After all, none of us would be a regular in a coffee shop where other five regulars kept starring at us and saying bad things to and about us every time we walked in, right? For an amateur, a poker room is not much different.
