Prime Social Club Report -
www.primesocialtx.com
Went to the grand opening last night. This club rivals many of the card clubs in California. The owners spared no expense. It has 40 tables, a full bar and an enclosed high limit room. For the grand opening they had food catered in from a local Sushi place(Kato Robato) and open bar. This brought out every poker player and anyone that knew a poker player in town. I estimate there were more than 500 people in there.
They spread 1/3 NL($300 max buy in), 2/5 NL, 5/10 NL, 1/3 PLO and 5/5 PLO. They also had a big 25/50 PLO game in the high limit room. Saw every game runner in town and folks from Lion's and Post Oak there checking it out.
Here are the details on their charges:
$10 membership fee
$10 per day fee (this was waived last night and the rest of this weekend). After this weekend, new players would pay both their first time.
They issue you a credit card with your name on it. Eventually this will be how you buy time but it wasn't operational yet so last night they had time chips. Normal rate will be $8 per 30 minutes but for last night they did $8 per hour.
Valet is required unfortunately. They have a decent size parking lot but they only have one way in and one way out and valet has the entrance pretty much locked up.
I left at 1 and they still had 8 tables going.
This weekend they have 2 $20,000 guaranteed tournaments. Buy in is $200 + $15. $10,000 is guaranteed to first place. No add ons. Rebuys through level 6. Tourneys start at 12:00.
After this weekend they will have 2 tourneys every day. One at 12 and one at 6.
For anyone wanting to check them out they have free food and drinks again on both Friday and Saturday.
