Fri nite in LA, where to go?
In LA on business, would like to go play tonight and maybe tommorow. I see everybody rave about the Bike and Commerce - just looking for details. I'm a recreational-but-serious limit player, winning .5/1 on UB. Any ideas which room and limits I'd find comfortable would be appreciated. Also, what waits will be like on a weekend nite - I can go anytime after about 6pm and don't mind staying all nite. I'm staying on Wilshire in Westwood, so I'll probably have to factor a long cab ride into my EV, unless any of these places run shuttles. Thanks!

Re: Fri nite in LA, where to go?
I'd rent a car,,Westwood to Commerce probly a $150.00 fare each way maybe more depending on time of day. Hollywood park is a lot closer to Westwood action is good but atmosphere and area suck big time. Games are good everywhere so take your pick. Not usually to long of a wait at 9-18 and 20-40 at Commerce (under half hour) Don't know 'bout your BR, but if you like 9 way action donkfest than 3-6 or 4-8 is just that.

You have your choice of 8 poker clubs in the area. Taxis are expensive in LA. Renting a car would probably be better.

As far as where to play.....Go to Hustler if you want a quiet, classy place and if you are willing to play tightish(by Los Angeles standards) limit $4-8 or lower, or small buy in holdem($2-5 blinds or lower). Get a players card if you want free food. If you want wild low limit, go to Commerce and play $4-8 or $9-18. Commerce no limit sucks due to the bad structure. You need to double up a couple times before you even start to deviate from ABC poker. If you want HOT cocktail waitresses and free food, go play at Bike and get the players card. The games are not as good as Commerce, but they have decent $6-12 and $8-16 games. Just use wisdom as far as table selections because some games will be bad. |
