Favourite casino to play live poker?

[GrannySmit77]

What are your favourite casinos to play live poker? I used to travel to Las Vegas once in a while to play poker. From all the poker rooms they have, the Wynn seemed the nicest place to play. I played some small events in the World Series and the dealers are not the best.

I see that you are from Canada, the playground poker club in Montreal is my favrite so far, they have wsop series there a few times a year.

 

[GrannySmit77]

I played at the Playground, they have very good dealers and organize a lot of events. Where do you play?

I used to play in Moncton, but they are not having many tournaments anymore. I try and go to Montreal for the big events tournaments has often has i can. I only play tournaments. Last spring i went to play the Irish open in Dublin, it is not played in a casino, it is a big building where they old equestrian activities, in my flight there was over a thousand players all in the same building at same time. It is part of the european poker tour, and the main event was only 1100E. The dealers where very good, they come from all over europe, they follow the tour.

Dusk til Dawn in Nottingham UK is a huge card room that I love to play at and a must for any poker player visiting the UK. Nearly all big UK and international events are held here.

Do you know if they hold Party poker events there some times. They have one for LOndon at the moment and had one in Burmingham in octobre.

In my country, there are very few casinos where you can gamble. There's one called "Bellagio Maracay," and it's very good; it's the only one I've been able to go into. I'd love to go to Las Vegas someday.

I've played tournaments in three geographic areas and my favorite places in each are:

Foxwoods in Ledyard, Connecticut.
Revo in Manchester, New Hampshire.
South Point in Las Vegas, Nevada.

All three have wonderful atmospheres and lower priced entry fees.

I have only been to a real casino a few times. Unfortunately, in Ukraine, real casinos are only for rich people. People with average incomes cannot afford such expenses.

If you ever come to Calgary, Alberta check out the Deerfoot Inn and Casino. They also have WSOP tournaments (the last one in October had a lot of events).

In my opinion, this is the casino in Europe that welcomes guests without exception from all countries of the world - Barcelona.The largest stage of the European Poker Tour, organised by PokerStars, takes place here every year.Another reason to come to the Barcelona Casino is to meet celebrities. The EPT stages attract the cream of Spanish society, including popular footballers and showbiz stars.

Welche Casinos spielst du am liebsten zum Live-Poker? Früher bin ich ab und zu nach Las Vegas gereist, um Poker zu spielen. Von allen Pokerräumen dort schien mir das Wynn am besten. Ich habe an einigen kleineren Turnieren der World Series teilgenommen, aber die Dealer dort sind nicht die besten.

Are here players from Europa? I like very much the Kings Casino Rozvadov, Czeck Republic. I am from Bavaria, near the border

I love going to Pop's Poker in Richmond Virginia USA. It is a poker establishment and not a casino. They have the Poker Atlas software to keep up with things. The dealers shuffle cards and they are not put in one of those card shufflers.
The casinos use the card shufflers and the first time that I saw one I did not trust it. I did not like the fact that cards were disappearing in a hole in the table and I could not see what was happening to them and how they were being manipulated.

 

[LUKADONCICMVP]

my bedroom is the best place to play.

Playground poker is were i would go. All US based casinos seem to ave stopped there games i like, OK that's not accurate, The stopped game regular folks can afford.

 

[RonanPERNA]

I've never been to a casino to play poker, I've always played online. But if I had to choose one to play live, it would be the Bellagio Las Vegas.

 

[Poker_Mike]

My favorite are probably the Venetian and the Aria both in Las Vegas.

i have been to the poker stars event, even played the main event. you are right, all the big names where there. on day one at my table, there was 4 players i had saw on final tables on TV. And i did not need to go 2 rounds to know i was the fish at the table. The american pro on my left would enter every pot i was in and punish me. But my only goal was to make it to day 2, and i did, but i was playing a buyin over my head. I did make it to day 2 tho but didn t cash.
I played 5 other tournaments there and cashed in 2. while playing one of them, a spaniard suggested i go to play the irish open in Dublin, the main event is only 1100E, and last spring i did. I have already booked my hotel, plane tickets bought for next spring Irish open. The event doesn t take place in a casino, it is some kind of equestrian venue, in my qualifying event we were over a 1000 all in the same building. There is lots of room there, it is well organize, and the Irish people are great. My bucket list was always playing the main event in Vegas, but now it is Dublin, and i can go there 3 times for the same price has 1 main event in Vegas. On my day 1 of the Irish open , i had the honor of playoing with a player who has won 4 EPT, I dont know his name, i think he is British, I had saw him on TV, he seemed pretty cool on TV, arriving with a beer. And on day one , he joined my table at level 4 with a beer in his hand. It was nice to see him work, he fights for every pot he is in. I saw why he has won 4 EPTs. I was talking to Frank, an american wich i saw win a tourney on TV while playing a seniors event, he told me he had played a few of EPT s in , and his favorite was the one in Dublin, I dont know franks last name, but the tourny he won on tv, he had a chicken wing for luck. OH yes, and if you win in Dublin, you don t have to pay taxes like Vegas.

The last few years, we stayed at the Wynn…it is beautiful and clean, but I find the poker room rather bland and boring. I like playing at the Bellagio…great atmosphere and you are sure to see many of the top pro players there…I get a big kick out of the fact that one dealer who dealt to me in a $1-3 table back in the 90s, is now one of the final table dealers in WPT tournaments at the Bellagio.

I like your thread because I've never played live and I'd like to know where to start.

Monacos Casino's are the best
