Trip across US. Where to play poker?
I will be doing a roadtrip across the US pretty soon. There alot of small places/reservations that have poker rooms and I would like to hear about them. I would like to incorporate these places into my schedule as I travel. My trip will be from DC-CA/Mexico, but please list all places you can think of... It might be a nice resource for us.
Please list the town/state, and the games being spread. Please note weird rules (like low max buyins) and specific casinos if there are only 2-3 in town. Foxwoods, CT - All limits/games Atlantic City, NC - All limits/games Las Vegas, NC - All limits/games Turning Stone, Syracuse NY - All limits/games New Orleans, LA - All limits/games Shreveport, LA - Eldorado, Horseshoe Tunica, MS - All limits/games Lawernceburg, Ind - at least 1/3NL Salamanca Casino, NY - 40BB buyin 1/2NL. Niagra Falls, NY - NL Casino Niagara and Fallsview

Re: Trip across US. Where to play poker?
Washington (State) Statewide there are 100 cardrooms (plus a dozen or so tribal casinos) about 40 of which spread poker, almost all limit or small spread limit (1-4, 2-8, 2-12). Tribal casinos have a different set of rules are are allowed larger bets in the cardrooms there is a $25 max bet on any poker wager, the tribal casinos can have upto $500 maximum wagers.
In SW WA there are 5 rooms with poker (none are tribal): Last Frontier, La Center 7 Tables limits from 3/6-10/20, $10,000 Bad Beat at all times New Phoenix, La Center 3 Tables in joint ownership with the LF, all games have a $3 max rake Chips, La Center 4 Tables 3/6, 4/8 Monte Carlo board daily 3 Table Tournament $35+$0 Cadillac Island (Formerly Cadillac Ranch), Longview 3 Tables but rarely more then 1 game going, it is softer then velvet but not bigger then 4/8 so not worth a drive of more then 30-45 minutes Wild Grizzly, Kelso 3 Tables See Cadillac Island, However on Sundays then play Omaha8 with the worlds worst poker players. There are many more good rooms to the north in the Seattle/Tacoma area, including some reservation casinos that have spread limit games with capped buyin games that play like no-limit. To the south in Oregon are 2 poker rooms, if the Spring or Fall Poker round-ups are going on then there is nothing better then Wild Horse Casino in Pendleton it brings in some pros but it also brings in so many fish it is hard to count them. But at other times there is Spirit Mountain in Grand Ronde (almost to the Oregon Coast) they play 2/4-30/60 Limit and 2/5 NL (500 Max) and will play bigger NL with interest (always a capped buyin game) It may be out of your way but there is the list of LEGAL Casino's in the Greater Portland area, have a great trip.

Re: Trip across US. Where to play poker?
If you're heading through Colorado make a stop up in Black Hawk. Stupid $5 statewide betting limit on cash games does suck, but the tournaments can be pretty good. Look for the casinos The Gilpin, Mountain High, Ameristar and The Lodge.

Re: Trip across US. Where to play poker?
There are some missing from Oklahoma. There are a few along both I-40 and I-35. The one I play at is Riverwind which is just a mile south of Norman (I-35 and State Hwy. 9 West). They play 3/6, and 1/2, 2/5, sometimes 5/10 NL. They also recently started Omaha and I've seen some of the bigger players playing in 5/10 PL.
Also on I-35 is Winstar on the OK/TX border. On I-40 there is Firelake Grand which is just a few months old about 20 miles east of OKC. Then about 20 miles west and a few miles North of OKC is Lucky Star Casino. I don't know what games they are spreading at those locations.
