Default Re: Aviaton Club Paris

Just wanted to say that what everybody said in this thread is pretty much spot on. I played the 2-2 game (which has a ridiculous rake) and the game was full of donkies buying in short and leaving once they busted. It was unreal how high the turnover rate of players was.

Dealers were very good, although the game could be run more professionally. Dealers did not have change except for a rack of two's, which meant players had to either get them from a runner, or what was more common at my table, exchange at another player. It was not uncommon to see the player who received the cash in to pocket the money, effectively 'going south'. Also, string raises, acting out of turn etc. was all allowed and people were able to take their money back. This leads to a nicer atmosphere so I didn't really mind it. Also, the highest denomination money they had when I cashed at the cashier were 20's, which I think is kind of weird and annoying.

As for the dress code. The first thing the bouncer looked at were my shoes, so I figured that was the most important. I had a grey hugo boss hoodie on which I had to take off, but I had a dress shirt with me just in case. Smoke was indeed very, very terrible.

I was very surprised to see how small the club was, especially the casino part. It was basically three small living rooms with various games. But of course I came to play poker and the poker room was pretty big (although not as nicely decorated as the rest).

There was a parking lot with an exit just in front of the casino which cost $3 per hour or $26 for a day, which was nice to have so close.

Thanks for all the information and I will be visiting ACP again soon, as well as some of the other rooms I hope.
