Pain in the hole really, but once or twice it has saved me money - taking a tough beat, or when I've been playing a sub-par game, the walk to the ATM gives me time to clear my head and realise it's probably better to just keep walking to the carpark and head home.

Apart from there though, at least half of the poker rooms I've played in have had ATM's within a 30 second walk from the tables.

Lol, the one time I played in Sydney I did exactly the same.

Missouri is the same. It's not technically in the boundaries of the room, but there will be a ticket machine/ATM within 20 feet.

I still have yet to use an ATM at a casino. Considering some of my issues with gambling, it's sort of a pride point with me now. If my bank covered the fees, it would probably be a different story.

I haven't read the thread, so this may have been mentioned, but parx has one.

Makes sense though, since the main casino is in a different building.

In the daytime where I regularly play there is generally one at seat 9 at my table.

Why exactly would a poker room not have an ATM?

I play at Foxwoods, there's a bunch, I don't know why any room wouldnt have at least 1.

Pretty sure the new place opened on April 15th 2010, which is well over 2 years ago...guess the years really do speed up: http://www.casinoarizonapoker.com/index.php?topic=310.0

Every room I have played at in FL has had one. They are very convenient never far from the tables.

I can't imagine hating money enough to use an ATM in a casino. Their transaction fees are absurd, which never made sense to me.

That what happens when you get old.

Where? I have not seen this.
