Guys thanks for playing and comments. we are reviewing all your suggestions and will post something on that.

regarding the somewhat annoying player mentioned. he has been a controversial subject. Good for the game but uber annoying. He was given a 30-day time out to reconsider is antics. Hehaved for about a day upon return then back to same antics. I believe he is about to get permanent vacation.


First Big Poker Thursday with ESPN Division of Poker Radio out there tonight at 7PM. $150 Tourny with 10K chips and 30 minute levels.

$1/$2 Uncapped PLO game kickes off Sat at 1PM with freshly grilled steak dinners that night, for all the players who help us get the 1/2 PLO game off the ground.

To clarify my comments and suggestions, this room really has no big problems. It's largely very well run and I will keep coming back. This place deserves to take off, and I hope it will.

A sincere thanks for your comments. Much appreciated by the whole team at Buckeye.

We had 38 players in our very first "Big Poker Thursday $150" tournament tonight. Final three chopped for $1,300 each. This tournament should grow each week. Would love to get it to over 75 players.


1/2NL, .25/.50 PLO, and the Low Risk Spread Limit were all running while the tournament was going tonight.

Around 17 Players now locked up for the launch of the "1/2 PLO Uncapped" this Sat 1PM. See one of the staff to reserve a seat.

Uncapped 1/2 PLO is for sure on for today starting at 1PM. Sounds like they will have two solid games going.

Cant put names online but from what I heard, some very well known local PLO players will be playing. I'm guessing its a going to be a pretty wild PLO game today at Buckeye

Would love any feedback from any 2+2ers that play

Sounds like this game will at a minimum run every Sat at 1PM.

Highland Hornets Booster Club is holding the Festival out there this weekend. Proceeds will benefit their traveling Baseball team.

1/2 Uncapped PLO game ran full handed from 1PM for 6 hours or so last Saturday. Had handful of other players waiting on list but never enough to get second game going.

Seats are already getting locked down for the game again this Sat at 1PM. It will go again for sure and should grow each week as most players who played are playing again and bringing friends.

See staff at Buckeye to reserve a seat for this Saturday at 1PM.

PLO Action at Buckeye continues to grow...

1/2 PLO Uncapped game is go there every Saturday at 1PM. Last week's game ran for 10 hours and had ~$20,000 on the table at one point.

No need to lock up seats in Sat game anymore. Just show up to play. If you cant get a seat in that game right away, you can definitely play in the .25 /.50 PLO game, $40min $200Max while you wait. That game runs everyday starting around 4PM and gets two tables going 2-3 times per week.

The Saturday 1/2 PLO Uncapped is probably going to start running Sunday as well if you would rather play then. See room to lock up seat in the Sunday game. I think Sunday game is going to go off first time this weekend.

New game being spread Tonight at Buckeye Charity Poker

Action 1/2

1/2 No Limit Holdem with .50 Ante $200 min - $600 max

Shortstackers and Nits probably wont like this game.

Not a scheduled game so no guarantees on number of players for tonight. Buckeye is right off I90 at Bishop Road in Willoughby Hills so stop by tonight if you want to check out the Action 1/2 game. They are going to start running it every Tuesday night, so we'll see how it goes.

P.S. Sunday $50 7PM Tournament had 73 players this week and Monday 7PM $10 Rebuy had 78 players.

Thursday $150 7PM tournament is 10,000 chips and 30 minute levels. Just under 40 players for first two weeks of this tournament. Expecting more players this week.

"Action 1/2" did not got go. Enough players showed up but they came in groups at different times throughout the day/night. Given the interest it showed, they are going to schedule it now every Tuesday at 6PM starting next week. See floor to lock up a seat for next weeks game.

1/2 Uncapped PLO is runnning every Sat at 1PM now. Its a fairly big game though so be prepared. Average stack last week was $1,800 with several known local PLO action players in the game. That game will prob start running Sunday as well. See floor to lock up seat for Sunday Game. Just show up on Sat to play then. It getting 33+ hands per hour so you get alot of play for your time there.

You can always play .25 / .50 PLO ($40min $200max) at Buckeye it runs every day with multiple tables several days a week.

I heard they are planning to run a deepstack tourney with a $300 buy-in once a month on the 2nd Saturday of the month. Any truth to that rumor?

I have to say that over the last couple of weeks, this place has picked up pretty nicely. There's more tables going and the floor is doing a nice job keeping the tables full enough to keep the games going until new faces come in. I'm happy to see it happen.

14 is correct. The $300 is going to run second Saturday each month. This was first one and will probably grow each month. They will probably have some Satellites and other promotions for entries into next $300 on April 13th.
10,000 chips. 20 minute levels.


Also the ESPN/Division of Poker - Big Poker Thursday is a $150 that runs every Thursday at 7PM

2/5 NL ran for the first time at Buckeye yesterday.

1/2 Uncapped PLO should run as normal tommorrow at 1PM. See or call floor to lock up your seat. Currently 8 seats locked up.

75 Players on thursday for the Noon $500 Freeroll. That is going to run every Tuesday and Thursday I beleive.

If you are frustrated with your poker options in Cleveland / Northeast Ohio, please come check it out. Right off I90 and Bishop Road in Willoughby Hills.

When did the 2/5nl start, Lou? And did it run for awhile? I think this is a great way to get action in the room earlier in the day by instituting these freerolls. Just sucks for us working stiffs like me... lol


This room is the nuts, all-around. And I expect it to grow much as it has

Drove by this place today and it was freaking packed, actually tried to take a picture because it was like 1 pm. I was on my way to previous engagements but I will try to stop in later. They were advertising a PLO game with $200 min and No CAP

2/5 just sprouted up organically this week. It wasnt a promoted game. They had been getting 3-4 on the wait list but never went. Three guys started playing a few more jumped in and they called around town and it filled to nine handed pretty quickly and ran for maybe 3 hours.

About time to start thinking about a smartphone app that provides same info as Bravo.

1/2 PLO uncapped is a promoted game and has been running Saturday at 1PM. Its playing pretty big. Around 33 hands per hour on PLO vs about 20 non-PokerPro.
