Tioga Downs officially opens today as a full casino including a poker room. Initially 12 tables and they have a Bravo entry but it may not be updating yet.

Bravo system is working and updated now. Room is missing mobile food trays but they should be showing up soon.

Played there on Monday night. There were two 1 3 tables running with $100 to $300 buyins. I've been told 2 5 also runs there on the weekends.
Pros: room is clean, floor and dealers are friendly, easy to access from the parking lot.
Cons: they rake preflop, total drop is 5+2, room closes at 3am.

drive the extra hour to Turning Stone or Mohegan Sun Pocano, Tioga really sucks and I don't see the poker room lasting very much longer. I was there on Wednesday last week and they had one 1-3 at 10pm. they opened a 5 handed must move that broke up after about 45 minutes and I was finally moved to the full table, but that broke after about 30 mins. So on a Wednesday night, which is supposably their busiest night, all games were broke by 11:30. I also heard the dealers saying the Tuesday before they did not get a game all day.

Went to play the senior MTT. Poker room still closed, but tourney move to side room off main casino. Cramped quarters, noise from slots, and 48 OMC's complaining about the dim lighting. Good times!

Senior MTT now limited to 50 entrants unless no 1/2 tables running. Got in as last entrant Crowded tables in a small room, while in the adjoining High Stakes room, one guy was playing a slot.

Stopped by Wednesday afternoon. Poker room still has a sign over a door but all the tables have been removed, and replaced by high stakes slots. Doesn't look like poker is coming back anytime soon.

FWIW, they do have a poker room. Just stuck my head in, didn't play.

I guess they had ~6 tables, one of which was in action with 8 players the day I rolled by. Was probably around 4-5 PM on a weekday.
