City buses? Forget it. Public transportation SUCKS in FL.

posts like this show WHY 2+2 forums does NOT REPRESENT THE AVERAGE POKER PLAYER. 2+2 is composed mostly of winning professionals and people who are pretty well off financially. not a bunch of people working at minimum wage $6 an hr jobs and without cars, and on public assistance. i would guaranttee u at least 100-200 people ride the bus to the cardrooms every day even if not all of them are on a bus route. id also be willing to make a $100 bet with anyone on this forum i could even find a casino dealer who does. i certainly did when i was at the seminole casino in ft lauderdale in 2003. i dont know how to drive, never owned a car in my life and im 38. yet i rode the bus every day to casinos in CA vegas, reno AC NJ davenport IA, and even phoenix, where its like a 8 block walk from the end of the busline to casino arizona, unless thats been improved.


I can't imagine trying to wait for a bus or whatever in Ft. Lauderdale or Tampa/St. Pete areas.
NOT a good idea.
Do they have pick-up/drop-off anywhere near some of these casinos? Somehow I doubt it.

I haven't paid much attention to public-transportation around Florida but my guess is it's ineffective and sketchy enough to make it pretty unwise to count on it.

If you don't have a car I might suggest you are probably going to need one.
