I believe all the Indian Casinos in CA are 18+.

You gotta be 21 to play at San Manuel.

My bad. Anyone know why San Manuel is different from Morongo?

From what I've been told it's up to the discretion of each tribe... they can have 18+ rooms but some choose not to do it.

Nice site btw.

No Problem. There might be more to it... I'm sure someone will chime in if they know more.

I'm glad you like TPA. I hope you find it useful when you travel.

It used to be 18. I used to gamble there when i was 17. by the time the new casino built it turned 21.

Pechanga and San Manuel agreed to move to 21+ when they built their expansions-- in both cases, it was negotiated with the local comunities in exchange for road upgrades, signals, etc. Morongo is still 18+ becuase there is no local community. There's the "resort" and an outlet mall, and a whole lotta desert.

San Man is rather busy for a non-LA room-- on a weekday afternoon, it is common to have 3 2/4 tables, 3-4 3/6, 5-8 4/8, 1 6/12 and 50% chance of a 15/30. 4/8 and bigger are full kill. Rake is rebated to $1+$1 if the pot is 5sb or smaller (not sure of this below 4/8). On weekends, all 30 tables are in use roughly 4pm-4am. I would say there are 3 NL tables going midweek more often that not.

9/18 is dead- as mentioned, 2/5NL killed it. I spoke with the floor last week, discussing changing the 6/12 to 8/16; they considered it seriously, but too many 6/12 players opposed it (the ones in favor were mostly the 15 regulars who sit in the 6 waiting for a seat or the game to go).

Morongo has almost no limit action. 4/8 goes only on weekends, and 1-3 $100 NL outnumbers all limit games combined most of the time. A weekend will have something like 3 2/4's, 5 3/6's, and 10 1-3NL with one 2-5 uncapped. Nothing like seeing an 18 yr old with $10k cash behind his stack. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
