just quit now. poker is not for you.

Has Hollywood Poker shut down? Their website seems not to have current table info, and they didn't answer the phone when I called last night. Was hoping to finally play the 15/30 mix game.

Hollywood is currently temporarily closed. The reason why is a mystery. I heard rumors that they were behind on rent and possibly getting new ownership, but I don't know for sure.

I would not be surprised if they don't reopen, they never had a ton of business.

chillrob is baically jrivers, ask bunch of questions, never actually play.

RIP thread, now it’s basically just people who never play in Seattle rooms talking about Seattle poker.

Huh? I was in Seattle on Wednesday hoping to play the mix game. I played in the Seattle area at least 40 times this year.

On Tuesday, December 5, we were told that the Hollywood was closed due to a water leak, until Friday, December 8, but that they would reopen by Friday, December 8. We were then told on Thursday, December 7 that they were not able to open yet. We were told that they would re-open, but no word yet as to when.

Palace in Lakewood is officially closed as a poker room (they will have more table games on that side eventually if not already).

They were bought by Maverick and have relocated to Great American building. I’ve been playing in Lakewood for a decade but never stepped foot in that building. I was really impressed with the size of the new place. Unfortunately, they’ve barely started the Aces Poker makeover. Tables and chairs and games are all the same. A lot of the menu didn’t make the transfer (yet?) and the service was god awful last night so might be a bit of a rough transition.

What's Lakewood looking like these days?

Remembering the days of O8 at Fortune.

Getting the four of a kind in hand bonus. 8/16 and 4/8 kill. The burger and prime rib special. The Vietnamese food.

red dragon is back. baccarat, that is.
maverick rebranded it as dragon tiger. they have about 5 tables of $25-$400 baccarat and one pai gow. maybe a 3 card poker. recognized one dealer and pit boss from pre-pandemic club hollywood.
i haven't played bacc in 4 years and right away hit a streak of 17 hands, no player. (old man sitting next to me with $1000 always bet banker but wouldn't pull the trigger one time during the streak because ... i don't know why. maybe he liked watching me win.) also hit 30:1 on a $50 bet. good times. didn't try the food.

then stumbled into aces down the street and somehow managed to break even in 4 hours of PLO (peaked at $4000).
not sure what the lesson here is.... but crazy moose is about to lose a large chunk of my action.

Usual crap on the other side

I guess Hollywood is still closed?

Has a mixed game been going anywhere else?

Wonton Soup for 17 dollars. Sheeeeesssshhh

Mix is now running at Caribbean in Kirkland. Wednesday at 6PM is 6/12 and Saturday at 6PM is 15/30. You can call the day before to get your name on the list.

Current games: Badugi, 2-7 TD, A-5 TD, Badacey, Badeucey, Stud 8, Omaha Hi, Big O, and Razz

They are working on getting other games approved like Dramaha and Archie.

Plays 7 handed.

Thanks for the info! Hope those last two games don't get approved before I make it to a game.

Ugh, that's awfully far out of the way from downtown Seattle though.

I'm not sure any game is worth rush hour traffic from Seattle to the deep east side.

Eric persson raised the prices on a couple things this week.

Must be in another downswing at high stakes. They increased the 400+50 to 400+60. I mentioned it to the Director and he said it was only a small increase and I said "It's a 20% increase in the rake (50->60)" and I don't know of anything that increases 20% to be considered small.
