I've been in Prague for about 5 months. In the US I play mostly tournaments now so that is what I was looking for in Prague.
In December the EPT was in Prague and in Rozvadov. The tournaments were awesome (they held a Seniors tournament in Prague!) The cash games at King's casino in Prague were up and running. Multiple tables. In Euros there was 1/2 or 1/3, 2/5, 5/10 for NL. I think there was also 25/50. For PLO there was a table but I don't know the stakes. I have played a couple of tournaments in King's Casino in Prague since then and I really haven't seen any cash games running in the poker room (I could be wrong about that).
The only decent sized tournaments in Prague are at Luka Rebuy Stars weekly on Tuesdays. They range from 2,000 Crowns (~$90) to 10,000 crowns (~$450). They also occasionally run 10,000 crown progressive bounty tournaments like once a month as well as some multi-day 6,000 crown tournaments (like once every other month). The fields though are very aggro and GTO/Solver oriented. So its like playing in a poker graduate school on a partial scholarship (for low stakes). The field equivalent in the US would be about 3 times the entry fees.
Every now and then they run a decent buy in Day 1 (like 250+ Euros) at King's casino in Prague with the Day 2 at Rozvadov (LOL I didn't know Day 2 was in Rozvadov the first time I played in a Day 1...). So the cash games might be better on those days.
At Luka they are running a PLO game (high only) basically every Tuesday along with the tournaments. Sometimes they have a NL cash game as well. It seems highish stakes but I don't know what the stakes are. Also I have no idea what the rake is but I think it may be bad...
If anybody is interested let me know and I will research it next time I am there (which will be 6/9/23 and then a lot of Tuesdays through October though I will be in the US for WSOP events in mid June through some of July).
