Any updates on Sydney? Are games running every day without crazy long lists?

To answer my own question.. played some 2/3 at Star last night. 3 hour wait for a seat. 10% to $15 rake, including pre-flop. I had a couple of hands where I took it down with a pre-flop re-raise and they took $3.

Decent action, at least.

Does this Cashless Play include poker? Years ago at Crown Melbourne they had PokerPro computer tables and you stored money on a PokerPro card. I used to keep about 5k on the card, withdraw a buy-in from the cashier then deposit back on to the card. It was very convenient to not have to carry cash but also not have to sign money in and out. The card used a PIN and was more efficient than keeping money on account at the cage.

Hi fellas

I'm travelling from the UK to Sydney for a few nights for a wedding, and would like to play a bit of cash at the Star whilst there. Will be in Sydney on the nights of Monday 25th Nov (though probably ****ed from the flying) to Wednesday 27th Nov inclusive, so sadly not weekends.

How are the games on these weekday afternoons or nights? Am thinking of AU$2/$5, but don't know if it's worth making the trip if games don't really run that much there? Ideally I'd play in the afternoon, but on a Tues or Wed afternoon it might be empty?

Any pointers from anyone too in terms of getting to the casino from the Darlinghurst area, if uber is cheap or if I should bus it, and any other advice specific to poker at this casino would be handy - thanks!

2/5-10 runs from midday everyday. Multiple tables often by 2 or 3. 5/10-20 usually gets up in the evening

Your only challenge is that the 25th and 26th are the final 2 days of a wsop circuit event which will mean cash tables might be limited during the day depending on how many tournaments are running.

It will mean that the room will be throbbing though

Darlinghurst is a $12-15ish Uber to Star
