If you plan to play at Potawatomi in Milwaukee, bring nose plugs.
 

The stench inside that room this past weekend was unbelievably bad. That was my first visit since the new room opened and the room was nice, but my god, they better do something about that smell or no one is going to play in there. When I walked in, it smelled like a baby nursery after 10 babies filled their pants. I thought that someone had accidentally sh!t themselves after making a RF.

Apparently there is a meat packing plant next door and the ventilation to the PR comes from near that building. All I know is I won't be spending much time in that room until it is fixed.

I noticed that once too. But it went away after 15 minutes.
I was there on Monday for 6 hours, and I did not smell anything out of the ordinary. Besides, that place is a fish market, why wouldnt it have a bad smell!! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I was there on Sunday from 10 PM to about 5 AM Monday and it was there the entire time.

This is true. Not pleasant but it happens very infrequently.

Infrequently? Not true. That room is a an "air conditioning engineering glitch / error". The physical area is an extension of the original room, which had the same STINK problem. When you go into the room, you have to hope you are not there on a really stinky day. With expansion construction of the main portion of the casino underway, management needs to consult closely with air conditioning engineers to insure the STINKY mistake is not repeated.

I was there Saturday night for 3 hours. All I could stand!
The smell was so bad they only had maybe 8 out of 15 tables going. The people there were complaining a lot but continued to play. I heard the new poker room will be 30 tables and it will be where the Buffet is located now. It should be moved there within 6 months.

Haven't been to the room in almost 2 years.

What's the biggest game (Limit or NL) they spread on the weekends? How long will I expect to wait on a Saturday around noon.

The biggest and only NL game is 3/5 NL. I think the max is $600 or $1000.
The biggest limit i've seen is 30/60 but only saw that once a couple weeks ago.

You can call 2 hours ahead and get on the list. I've never gone there without getting on the list. The wait will be a couple hours on a Saturday without calling in. Not sure what the poker room number is, but the casino is 1-800-PAYSBIG and ask for the poker room.

They have a 5-10 there sometimes, I've seen it, ussually on weekends. Unfortunately that is also the time when that smell is there also, i've noticed it only on late sat-monday. The regular nl is 3-5 and its 2-600 bi. They have a regular 30-60 once a week, I cant remember the day though. Maybe tuesday or wendsday. Always call-in, unless you like waiting.

Potow sucks. I could drive 45 mins to play there, but drive 90 mins and go to Ho Chunk instead. The floor staff is horrible and their dealers suck. Some of the people that play their are scum. I've had players collude against me. Usually there is always someone who is looking to start a fight or talk [censored]. Their 3/5 game is usually tourney style poker with people bringing it in for $30 and reraising to like $150. Basically you have to sit and wait for premium hands.
