Why wouldnt you go to Hard Rock Tampa. alot closer.

Re: Seminole Casino Hollywood Hard Rock(Florida)
 

Why not head over to Mississippi?

Re: Seminole Casino Hollywood Hard Rock(Florida)
 

I'm pretty sure north Florida has poker rooms. Driving further to south Florida just doesn't make sense unless you have friends/relatives or just want to see the glorious sunshine state (with daily humidty that hovers around 60%-70% or higher and we can't forget the afternoon thunderstorms).

From someone that lives in Florida 10 minutes from the Hollywood Hard Rock, don't come here to play poker. If the intent of your trip is to play poker and you can't make it as far as the western US, go to Tunica or Atlantic City.

On related note has naybody played at the Micosukkee resorts in FLorida and if so what is the general service and standard of play like? Also anybody have any info on which is the nearest poker room to South Beach Miami?

When in Tampa, forget the Hard Rock as there are many more better venues.......DERBY LANE, TAMPA DOWNS, TAMPA GREYHOUND, and the TREASURE ISLAND BOAT.

Re: Seminole Casino Hollywood Hard Rock(Florida)
 

so what you guys are saying is im better off going to mississippi? biloxi & tunica?

Re: Seminole Casino Hollywood Hard Rock(Florida)
 

Higher buy-ins and blinds outside the state of Florida...........Florida allows only a 100 dollar maximum buy-in.

Re: Seminole Casino Hollywood Hard Rock(Florida)
 

Tunica is your best choice.

Re: Seminole Casino Hollywood Hard Rock(Florida)

The difference from Biloxi to Tunica is only about 100 miles.

Re: Seminole Casino Hollywood Hard Rock(Florida)
 

LOL...I thought the same thing!

I get the strong impression from reading OP's posts in this thread that he is extremely geographically-challenged.

Closest room would be either Flagler or Calder, each about 30 minutes or so away from South Beach.

Miccosukee is probably the ONLY casino in South Florida that has not raised the stakes at all. I have been a regular customer of Miccosukee for a few years, but now I would feel like an idiot going there to play 1/2 when I could be playing in more profitable games.

The nearest poker room to the beach, that I know of, is Flagler Dog Track.

?????? Biloxi is about 350 miles from Tunica.

From Charleston, SC (possibly the town in SC farthest from both cities):

Biloxi is 663.40 miles
Tunica is 728.72 miles

Biloxi is further to the South in MS, Tunica is to the far Northwest. The distance from one town to the other is irrelevant, it's the added distance to the trip that matters.

Re: Seminole Casino Hollywood Hard Rock(Florida)
 

Oh, OK. I guess I didn't understand your point.

Re: Seminole Casino Hollywood Hard Rock(Florida)
 

According to Google Maps, you're only 729 from Atlantic city. So, I guess its a toss up...just where you'd rather play...Tunica or AC.
