Poker Rooms in Niagara

[chadplusplus]

Ok, after an interesting weekend in AC where I learned optimal strategy includes never folding and NOT eating the breakfast buffet at the Taj, its time to plan a trip to Niagara.

I did the search thing. Best I could figure is that there are 3 casinos/poker rooms: Fallsview, Seneca and Casino Niagara. I saw some posts about the tournies there, but what about the cash games? Are there any casinos I'm missing worth mentioning? Which casino has the biggest/busiest poker room? Which ones are in the US? Any other caveats about a trip to Niagara?

I'm primarily interested in 3/6-5/10 HE games but my buddy plays LO8 if that is available up there anywhere.

Based on currency exchange fees alone, you should play at Seneca if you live in the states. That said, Fallsview has really soft 4-8 and 6-12 games (which are equivalent to 3-6 and 4-8 USD, respectively) and an amazing 5-5 NL500 game. Casino Niagara has all low-limit stuff, but the room sucks and the service is bleh.

Seneca Niagara has free drinks, too, from what I remember. I don't drink while playing, but I seem to recall that. If so, this is probably better for you, even if you don't drink!

EDIT: Also, no Canadian casinos near the border spread split-pot games. It has something to do with their gaming licenses and them not being "certified" to do so.

The free drinks at Niagra are only non-alcoholic. I did get a pretty good exchange rate at the cage which was right around the 1:1.18 at the time.
