Dealers: I've seen better, but I've worse. The tournament half of the room is undergoing renovation, however, I note that there is a monitor visble for tracking their multi-table tourneys, showing blinds, time remaining, etc. Additionally, as with all pari-mutual poker rooms in Florida, the room has hours of operation they're open noon to midnight, so no marathon sessions are possible. However, there is a balcony overlooking the racetrack, where you can smoke, just a short walk away. Good for me (I hate smoke), but if you're a smoker, it's annoying. The room, as all non-Indian poker rooms in Florida, is non-smoking. The chips are reasonably clean, although they're worn.
However, the silkscreening (in addition to a betting circle) has advertising and the room logo, which makes it hard to see chips that land on the printed area. Atmosphere: The chairs are nice, the tables are foam with a silkscreened cloth cover, which gives the table an interesting texture.
Eve n the low-limit $2-$4 game is beatable, the players are more there to play bingo than poker. The $1-$2 NL is often a fishpond if you can stand the suckouts, it's a good game. Impressions: The limit selection is poor (mainly due to state law limiting the size of the bets), but the games are weak. Betting on sports futures, props and lay bets.
