The management has obviously never worked for a well run well organized poker room. They are totally inept and over their head at managing the room and the tournaments. There are an average of two cash tables running most of the time with a waitlist of 8 to 12 every time I show up the Poker tournaments are run just as poorly two tables open eight alternates waiting why not have three tables open and maybe an empty seat on a table or two anyway it's owned by the Indians and obviously they don't care. I've played poker in over 50 poker. Rooms were chairs are luxurious and comfortable so are the tables the chairs and tables at this Casino poker room are totally horrible. You can't sit there longer than two hours. This review is January 2026.
