Wheeling Island Poker Room *update*

sirfoldalot · #1 10-19-2007, 12:42 PM

I have heard from a friend that visited the OPEN poker room today. All but 3 of the 20 tables were pretty full as of lunch today. There was a small waiting list for 1-2 NL Omaha high and 2-4 limit. There was a 8 deep waiting list for 5-10NL. There was also at least one 1-5 Stud game running.

This was just at a quick glance. I was surprised at the 5-10 NL waiting list. I am sure tonight there will be a waiting list for most games.

I think you must mean there were separate lists for 1/2 NLHE and Omaha high, but I'm holding out hope that they're actually spreading 1/2 NL Omaha...

Thanks for the update. Do you happen to know what the max/min buy ins are for the NLHE games?

They are spreading 1/2 NL Omaha. They are not spreading any Hi/Lo at this point. As far as the starting stack limits I am unsure. I will post after I play tonight with the table limits.

Thank you. Can you also report on the quality of the dealers?

Sure thing. I can tell you now that the quality of the dealers from the soft opening earlier in the week. They are very friendly but very green. Be prepared for some mistakes early on and understand that going in. I will add more comments after this evening.

I can almost guarantee that the green comment will be true for the players as well. I would imagine for many this will be their first casino poker trip.
