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...
It's been quite a few years since I played Sandia. But back when I did, they boys in the room talked about a great pot limit omaha game that used to run there back in the day. It would start up on a Thursday night and wouldn't break until Sunday night. It revolved around a retired local banker, who was a sweatheart of a guy - but apparently a relative fish in the game. When he died, the game died with him. It had been over a decade since the game ran when I was there, but the boys in the room still got misty eyed when they talked about "The Banker's Game." Of course I remember Sandia fondly as I had some really nice sessions in the Omaha 8 game
