FYI their website now says they open at 5pm.

Nevermind, I think the countdown on their website isn't working correctly. It resets to 9 hours 51 minutes wherever I visit the site

Over 30 tables open now, would love to get a trip report from someone about the overall poker atmosphere and how the Plexiglas is working out...

Tourneys have 10 as a defector standard. Cash live full ring less standardized but historically 9 max more standard than 10. Of course I am referring to pre Covid

Commerce has nice new felt and new chairs. Definitely better and more premium. It's 8 handed with plexiglass. The plexiglass is pretty out of the way and doesn't interfere with the play

No straddle at Commerce and no fun allowed. The rules are the rules.

Pedantic pet peeve...live straddle is redundant. All straddles are live except maybe a sleeper straddle which isn’t really a straddle anyway and few places allow those.

Someone's never heard of zombie straddle, ghost straddle or Weekend at Bernie's straddle.

They didn't allow straddles before.

They did allow blind raises from any position, probably still would.

Ugh, Governor closing card rooms in 19 counties including LA. Does not bode well for Commerce right now.

Remember pre corona and entering on asian games side of casino. Walking through throngs of people before getting to poker room. Thinking about it now I sort of shudder.

More like 3 months than 3 weeks. Highly surprised if they open sooner.

Closed Mid-March and opened on 19th of June for 13 days. Pretty logical to assume that it's going to be waaaaay longer than 3 weeks.

Home games right now are even better than the mayhem at Commerce. I got used to hearing myself think

best news in a while!

Anybody know what the rewards/promo were for 5/5 NLHE and higher pre-COVID?

I see that it’s been discussed in here, but I’m assuming it’s changed overtime.

Well, before the Covid shutdown you got $1 per hour for 5/5 nlh. But for 5/10 nlh and higher you got $3 per hour. You use that to purchase food or stuff at gift shop, etc. But I would not be surprised if during the restart where you played outdoors that they might not give ANY comps.

Since, food and drinks will NOT be allowed per State government guidelines for the reopening.
