Default Re: How is New Orleans poker?

Harrah's employs a lot of the folks whose homes were destroyed. Not that I'm a corporate flak or anything, but their reopening so soon after the hurricane was a boost to the area.

But back to the OP: Games are good during the week, though not as wild as on the drunken weekends. Also, a lot of the recent postings have taken the staff to task, and while I don't dispute the lapses in competence, I want to mention that it is a very friendly room.

Example: Recently an NYC fellow was in town to play, and he was so wildly obnoxious in that Borgata/Foxwoods-corridor way that he got every regular a the table livid. And these were people whom I'd played with for years and had never seen in any kind of altercation.

Also, the 9th Ward has its share of good players.
