Can't remember his name. It's not Leroy obviously, since he's one the best dealers.

Been at a similar situation at another room. Pretty easy solution in 3 steps:

1. Stand up and yell "FLOOORRRR!!!!"

2. Wait for floor to come over, tell the dealer he/she is FOS and make the right ruling.

3. Never tip said dealer again.

My (mostly) favorable review of the Winstar Poker Room, here.

Thinking about heading up this afternoon, anyone currently up there? If so, is the room full because of the holiday?

Room is rocking, I'm on table 41. A lot of people are railing the main event of The River poker series.

All tables were used this past weekend. Had 4+ 5/10 games going, a 10/25 game going, tons and tons of 1/2 and 2/5 games. Also some good PLO games going. Great to be there again this year. Didn't do anything in the River tourney, but did well at the cash games. Had a nice castle on table 23 Friday at 2/5 and ran really well yesterday at 5/10.

Until next year...

Please fix your website.

That'd be 190, actually. And it's not an I.

It was down for maintenance today. It should be up and running well now.

Has the player count in the poker room died off since the River series is now over? I haven't been in like 2 months.

Yes, slowest Saturday night I can remember last night. 10-15 empty tables all night

So all the fish have left??? Only grinders left???

Always fish at winstar

Hey guys

I moved to Dallas last week from Chicago and put in my first session at Winstar on this past Saturday. I played at the 1-2-5 PLO/PLO8 table from about noon until nine at night. It was probably the most fun session I've ever had and I'll definitely be back as often as possible. Any food recommendations? Also, were any of you guys in the PLO game?

Nope. We are all Hold'em players.

How much did you win?

For food, if you want to walk a little bit, try chips n ales.

Update on the golf course, it's pretty awesome. They've finished all the construction around the new academy facility, the new 9 has been open awhile, and the greens are in pretty good shape. The academy has two computer/video simulators, a putting studio, and a small gym in it. I'd definitely recommend checking it out and/or playing a round now that we should have some nice weather for awhile.

Winter time has been delayed?

Do you mainly play $2/$5?

It's all good if you guys don't care to converse with the enemy. You guy's have the fear of God in you that a good player is coming to Winstar. Well, get ready. I am on my way. Permanently.

LOL, converse with the enemy. I don't make a living playing 2+2ers, just out positioning them to get to the donks first. $5/$10NL is my main game. I sit at $2/$5 until a seat opens up.

Haha. Nice. I will prolly be seeing you around Mr. Turner.

Just 1 quick question for ya. At Winstar, how much difference is the difficulty level/skill level/amount of fish from 1/2 versus 2/5? I have never played 2/5 at Winstar before but I am pretty confident that I can beat it.

It varies a lot. But in general there are less complete total donkies who haven't a slight clue what they're doing. There are more regulars at 2/5 than at 1/2 because if anyone is going to play regularly they are drawn to playing 2/5 after a while rather than staying at 1/2.

But there are still a lot of fish at 2/5. There are some regulars who are total fish and you will know who they are not long after they sit down. Even among the more competent regulars, they all have a lot of leaks in their game and aren't anything to be intimidated about. Some regulars will sit down with a crossword puzzle and just nit it up (lol)

I spew to a lot of regs but I still don't think there's too many people you really have to watch out for. If you can beat 1/2 you can beat 2/5, but you may not beat it as hard as the 1/2.

Is that a picture of you in your avatar? Dwayne right?

Id say there's just as many fish on average at 2/5, but there's more regulars/grinders so it's a little tougher.

Um. So which is it. Are there just as many fish? Or are there more regular grinders?

BTW...the winstar 2-5 is the highest raked 2-5 game in the country barring only a few west coast cardrooms.
