# of hours I played here: 6-8 hours
I played $1-2 No Limit
Overall Rating: 3.5 Very simple "room" in the corner, near the bar. Not a huge crowd and nothing spectacular, but I had a really good, relaxing time here and managed to come up ahead.
Soft Competition Rating: 3.5 Seems like there are a couple regulars who come here pretty often, but other than that, very very juicy tables. One guy actually pushed all in with what he thought was middle pair and it turned out he had Q high. For the most part, players just wanna see hands cheaply and aren't too aggressive.
Room Condition Rating: 3.0 Nothing special. Clean, slightly secluded, decent chairs and tables.
Aggression Rating: 2.0 Except for the regulars, very little aggression going on.
Player Mix Rating: 4.5 This was actually my favorite part of the game and why I stayed to play three-handed near midnight. Old folks, young, card sharps, newbies, you had the works. It was a lot of fun to be around these people. This is definitely a good place to come if you want a chill game, or any easy one.
Dealer's Rating: 3.5 Sufficient. No blaring mistakes. A few dealers dealt pretty slow, but all were really friendly and personable. Had a lot of really laid back conversations with almost all of them.
Cocktail Service Rating: 4.0 Excellent. One of the perks. Fantastic-looking and, thanks to the proximity to the bar, very quick. Mostly very friendly aswell.
Management Rating: 3.5 Definitely above average. There was one manager in particular who was particularly personable and knowledgeable. Things ransmoothly for the most part, though, so there wasn't much need for management. But they were definitely generally accomodating.
Comps Offered Rating: 3.0 Total Rewards comp. Also offered a decent high handjackpot. Not sure about bad beats though, although in the morning there was anaces and kings cracked comp ($100 and $50 respectively, I believe).
