Tunica poker gets sadder every time I travel through. Most players still have no idea what they are doing, but that doesn't really help in a game like that.
I never visited Tunica during its heyday. Just why of 2 years I've gone to the Horseshoe at least ten times with ranges of 4 to 10 day stays.
I have been the gamut from some of the busiest poker rooms to small stakes home games. Given that, I rate Tunica as a "very good average" poker room. When it gets busy, there's plenty of action, large stakes on 1/3 normally top out on the just over a g range, while the average stack is around 300 or so (just as a guess) . Obviously this can all vary, but they regularly run24 hours games, and if not the game will go till daylight and be back up at 11am...
Yes, it may be slow .... As compared ... To a busy room, but there is consistently action, and money on the table.
Edit: i meant to add that. I think the op of this quote was playing the 2/4 limit game in which the min buyin is 40 dollars... The 1/3 is a min 100 buyin...
