Hmm.. That really f-ing sucks... Well, 1 question.. HOw did the "Grinder" from Hollywood Florida get so good? Did he just play online, or whats his story?

I think he moved up mostly from playing online, but I heard the casinos in Florida also spread 1000 stts, and he was a regular at those.

I just saw this while looking for casino jobs. Anybody know what this place is like?

Gulfstream Park has completed a massive renovation project that has dramatically changed the look and atmosphere of our previous facility. We are currently undergoing additional renovations that will include the installation of 1,500 slot machines as well as Poker Tables. This new state-of-the-art entertainment facility features three spectacular restaurants, a sports/dinner theater, 20 luxury suites, private accommodations for top players, as well as the world-class thoroughbred racing for which Gulfstream Park is renowned.

Gulfstream used to be one of the top race tracks in the country, and still attracted some of the top trainers and jockeys for the winter season up until a couple of years ago. Ownership basically tore the place down and rebuilt it this year into a restaurant/entertainment complex and de-emphasized racing in favor of low-stakes poker (the $1/$2 and $2/$2 variety that Florida is so famous for) and the soon-to-be-legal slot machines.

It's a nice facility. The best thing it will have going for it competition-wise is that it will be the southernmost facility in Broward County to have slots, which will probably attract a lot of people from Miami-Dade, where slots won't be legal.
