Poker in Seattle?
Hi all,
I'm going to Seattle to visit my wife's family from Thursday-Monday. Any good poker rooms there? I'd probably only go once if it's worth it, but I'd love the option... |

It's funny how often we get these threads...
If you are staying in seattle proper, then basically you can drive 20 minutes north or south to one of our many "mini casinos", or you can drive 1.5ish hours north of south to a full-on tribal casino. If you tell us where you are staying, what limits you are looking to play, and if you want to go to a small cardroom or a full-on casino, we can probably tell you exactly where to go. |

What games do you play? For the best Spread limit games (3-5 or 5-10), either hit muckleshoot or Tulalip. Tulalip is better since you don't have to wait forever to get a seat. Mucklehoot is the worst run poker room i've ever been to

I guess the bottem line is that there are many "mini casinos" up and down I5 and Hwy 99. Most of the players are pretty bad and it is difficult to find stakes higher than 6/12. They are mostly 3/6, 4/8 & 6/12.

Couple things:
I'll be staying about 20 mins south of Seattle the end of Aug. Where are the best places to find a good 1/2 or 2/5 NL game? Also, what is the legal gambling age in WA? |

Re: Poker in Seattle?
No Limit is illegal in WA state. The closest we have is a spread limit up to $500. The tribal casinos have 3/5 and 5/10 which play more or less like NL, except you cannot bet more than $500 at a time.
If you're going to be on the south end, you would probably want to go to the Muckleshoot. As a previous poster pointed out, the Tulalip Casino (north end) has a better 'spread limit' game with more available seating. |

Diamond Lil's in renton has 8/16 and 20/40 consistently (no idea about waits). |

I like parker's and they actually run a 15-30 or 20-40 sometimes.
