What is the level of play like at both places? I see that there is a daily tournament schedule at WinStar and a larger poker room, but does that mean more cash games throughout the day?
The rates are cheaper at Durant, so we are considering going up there for the weekend stay and then coming back to WinStar before we fly out. I know that both places mention that they have discounted rates for player's club cards, but we have no idea how much. I'm sure it's all rated based on play but we're wondering if it's possible to get a comp or just a decent rate vs. dumping a grand on hotel rates (please let me know if this is not appropriate for this forum)
Just generally wondering if it's worth it to go up to Durant for the entirety of the stay or if we should just go up on the weekend and enjoy the cheaper stay.
If you have a car and do not mind ~90 minute drive into Dallas, there are tournaments every day at the local card rooms; Texas Card House Dallas, TC Social Club and Shuffle214. Details, entry fee, schedule and guarantees, can be found on the Poker Atlas site/app. GL!
