Re: Celeb launches Muncie, Indiana, poker club (indystar.com)
I was back home in Muncie for a week for spring break and I stopped into this place to check out the action. I can give more details if people want them, but it was their first real night open (the Ed McMahon thing was not for any cash, just fun). They have nothing but sit-n-go's including 10+4 quickies running all day. They also have two 40+10's every night and a bigger 260+40 on saturday and an 85+15 on sunday. Give them a buzz at 765-288-ACES...
The rakes were big, there were only 6 people at my $50 "Main Event" on that night and the payout structure sucked. The chip colors used were way off (25 gray, 50 red, etc etc). The table felt will probably have to be replaced in a few weeks. It was the cheapo felt from the fabric store. I didn't like how I had to pay close to 2 bucks for a soda.
The dealer at my table allowed people to win the pot by only showing one card, i.e., you have the ace? its good. I tried to correct her several times but no one else at the table had a clue. There were about 10 dealers standing there watching us (it was the only game at the time).
I also played in Caesers and let me say - it is worth the 3 hour drive from Muncie compared to this place.
