Never been in a casino other than walking through one in Reno a couple decades ago but Harrah's and the Belle of Baton Rouge are both less than an hour from me. A couple questions please since I see recent activity in this thread:
What is the minimum and typical buy-ins for the 1/2 NL at Harrah's? The smallest Limit game and buy-ins?
I know I need to register to play poker but do I need to register to play at Harrah's?
Buy chips then go to table or get chips at table?
Can I find a game 10-11AM weekdays?
Dress code? (I'm a jeans and pocket t-shirt kind of guy by choice)
Same questions for the Belle of Baton Rouge if anyone thinks it would be a better starting spot.
Thanks for any assistance. I did read all I could find a few months back but the doctors and hospitals needed my poker stake more than my fellow poker players did apparently. I'm brushing up on my reading again and plan a trip or two next week to either Harrah's or the Belle. I have played a little internet poker but haven't played live anywhere in over thirty years. Feeling greener than a gourd!! Hopefully some of you are willing to help a fish find the wading pool.
I'll be happy to post a current update about Harrah's in this thread in return.
