I have set quite a few nights when the 2-5 game became a mandatory 2-5-10 game.
They play Monday and Wednesday from noon to midnight.
Thanks for the extra game, but I was here Thurs/Fri/Sat. Sounds like these games play a bit big for my funds anyways.
I was going to play Hollywood Thursday night (7p) tourney, but I was too tired from driving all day. But my research online suggested it is a well structured daily tourney.
I ended up playing the Horseshoe Cincy all day Friday. I had a great time. Place was perfect for what I was looking for. Great selection of games, and enough to be able to move tables if the vibe was not right. Drive was a bit long from Indy but doable.
I was surprised at the price of alcohol....$5 per drink? Crazy.
Self parking area was well lit, and fairly close to poker room entrance. I did not see a need for valet (but I was also super early and got a spot near the elevator).
I ended up playing the 12n turbo, but that was a mistake. Total crap shoot (probably should have placed $80 on pass line instead).
Also from a non-poker perspective, there were plenty of $10 BJ and $10 Pai Gow tables on a Friday, which I thought was awesome. I did not see any interesting VP games. I always like to put a bit of money into these games, to record so extra Tier points.
I did not want to travel far on Saturday, so I checked out Danville American Legion. Nice folks (actually super nice)...., but I would not go back for the poker. Level 1 = 100/200 Level 2 = 200/400 Level 3 = 400/800...nuf said.
