  • Poker Room Review: Atlantis Casino Resort & Spa, Reno, NV

    August 10, 2008,

    Much like its namesake, the mythical underseas continent off in the Atlantic, the Atlantis is in its own little world. It's removed from the well traveled streets of downtown Reno – and even a mile or two from the Peppermill...

     
  • Poker Room Review: Peppermill Resort Casino Reno, Reno, NV

    August 03, 2008,

    There are many poker rooms in the greater Reno area, which includes Carson City and Lake Tahoe to the south and Sparks to the east. I played in 21 of them over a one-week span. I really enjoyed myself in this beautiful part...

     
  • Poker Room Review: Lucky's, Tampa Greyhound Track, Tampa, FL

    July 27, 2008,

    Lucky's is the other poker room in Tampa – not nearly as well known or as frequently visited as its neighbor, the Seminole Hard Rock casino. As the number two room in the area, Lucky's seems to try harder. It has much to recommend it....

     
  • Poker Room Review: Texas Station, North Las Vegas, NV

    July 20, 2008,

    Texas Station is part of the Station casino chain. These used to be limited to the large and boxy casinos in the Las Vegas area that included Boulder Station, Sunset Station, Palace Station, and Fiesta. But in the last few years...

     
  • Poker Room Review: Miccosukee Resort and Casino, Miami, FL

    July 13, 2008,

    The Miccosukee Resort & Gaming facility, located on the western fringe of Miami, bordering the Everglades, is large and impressive. There is a modern hotel with 302 rooms, a 1,200-seat high-stakes bingo hall, 1,700 slot machines...

     
  • Poker Room Review: Hard Rock Tampa, Tampa, FL

    June 29, 2008,

    The Hard Rock Casino in Tampa, run by the Seminole tribe of Florida, is a large, great room. They have 50 tables, spread $1/2 and $2/5 no limit hold'em with a $100 capped buy-in. They spread $2/4 limit hold'em and $1-5 limit stud...

     
  • Poker Room Review: Seminole Casino Coconut Creek, Coconut Creek, FL

    June 22, 2008,

    The poker room on the second floor of the Seminole Coconut Creek Casino has a barren and isolated feel to it. For those looking for a glittering, casino-like atmosphere, it's a disappointment. There is no foot traffic or gambling...

     
  • Poker Room Review: 'Old' Seminole Casino – Hollywood, FL

    June 15, 2008,

    The tropical décor of the original Seminole casino in Hollywood seems sedate next to the frenzy of the new Seminole Hard Rock across the street. But that's okay. This place provides a nice counterbalance with its extremely flashy...

     
  • Poker Room Review: Naples Ft. Myers Dog Track, Bonita Springs, FL

    June 08, 2008,

    It's not fancy. There are few bells or whistles, and the poker food is less than outstanding. But if you are in the Ft. Myers-Naples area, like your poker straight, with few gimmicks, and don't have a great home game already...

     
  • Poker Room Review: Gulfstream Park, Hallandale, FL

    June 03, 2008,

    The poker room at this huge gambling complex is located in the 'Sport of Kings Poker and Racing Lounge.' It's on the second floor in a converted theater, under an enormous chandelier, with terraced seating that promises and delivers...

     
  • Poker Room Review: Mardi Gras, Hallandale Beach, FL

    May 25, 2008,

    The Mardi Gras is one of many poker rooms located at dog tracks in Florida. It has the distinction of being, in my opinion, the cleanest, neatest, and best illuminated of the rooms. Everything including the cards...

     
  • Poker Room Review: Seminole Hard Rock Casino, Hollywood, FL

    May 18, 2008,

    The Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood, Florida is a poker player's dream. I drove to this East Coast poker destination while staying in the middle of the state in Lake Placid, while visiting my Dad and his wife. It's about a two-hour...

     
  • Poker Room Review: Seminole Casino Brighton, Okeechobee, FL

    May 11, 2008,

    I was visiting my Dad and his wife Mary in Lake Placid, Florida. If you were to try and find "the middle of nowhere" in Florida, this is about as close as you could come. It is a great place to retire, I suppose, with lots of golfing...

     
  • Poker Room Review: Seminole Immokalee Casino, Immokalee, Florida

    May 04, 2008,

    I recently had an opportunity to visit southern Florida for a combination family vacation and poker-playing trip. My, how the poker scene has changed recently. Up until July of 2007, poker was limited to $2-limit games...

     
  • Poker Room Review: Cercle Gaillon, Paris, France

    April 27, 2008,

    I've played poker in over 100 poker rooms in the world. This was the most beautifully appointed room of them all. This club is literally around the corner from the more famous and larger Aviation Club, on the Champs Elysees...

     
  • Poker Room Review: Aviation Club, Paris, France

    April 20, 2008,

    I found the ideal way to make a Parisian vacation seem cheap: Start out by playing pot-limit poker at the Aviation Club. The Aviation Club is a fine private club located in the most prestigious part of Paris, on the Champs Elysees...

     
  • Poker Room Review: The River, Milford, NH

    April 13, 2008,

    The River is a new, beautifully appointed and bright mid-sized poker room in Milford, New Hampshire. They have 25 tables with new, crisp, clean felt, with spanking new chips and cards. The room is ringed with TVs, floored with fresh...

     
  • Poker Room Review: Santa Ana Star, Bernalillo, NM

    April 06, 2008,

    The Santa Ana Star Casino is located in Bernalillo, a small city between Albuquerque and Santa Fe, just west of Interstate 25. It is a full service New Mexican casino, located on an Indian pueblo, with all of the limitations required...

     
  • Poker Room Review: Sandia Resort and Casino, Albuquerque, NM

    March 30, 2008,

    There are many poker rooms in the Albuquerque-Santa Fe area. Each has its charms and special qualities. All are worth visiting if you have the time to do so. That being said, there is only one room in the area for the serious mid-stakes...

     
  • Poker Room Review: Isleta Casino and Resort, Albuquerque, NM

    March 23, 2008,

    The Isleta poker room, located about ten minutes south of downtown Albuquerque, right off Interstate 25, is one of the oldest rooms in New Mexico. I first played there in 1998, well before the huge poker boom and the resulting expansion...
