Sorry - I just got back online (after a few weekend trips, I got home
and discovered my PC on the fritz. Fortunately, my bro. set me up on
a useable (i.e. - internet compatible) Apple/Mac - which I HOPE will
remain more friendly.
For LOW LIMIT poker with good promotions, check out EW, Tropicana,AVI,
and even the Riverside (although it's more smoky over there.
ALL of those properties have 2-4 or 2-6 spread limits,
LOW blinds (usually only 1-$2 blind), and various high hand promotions!
Most of them are listed in the Laughlin Entertainer Weekly website.
Harrah's hads 3/6 with a kill; AQ is 4/8 with a kill;
CB is a busy room, with all limits and high hand progressives.
AQ has AA cracked certain times; Harrah's progressives for
4ks/SFs/Royals not as high as CB-EW-- or even the Trop;
However, they are linked to OTHER HET properties with that Mega-Bad
Beat progressive (4k beat by 4k or higher)....
On ANY of these promotions, make sure you know the rules!
Usually $20 min. in the pot; hands must play out to the end.
Both hole cards must play.
BONUS: At EW-CB, there is one random 'quad' of the day that pays
$500. Whatever that quad is, you could possibly win it with Ace-high
as your kicker card, if board has 'trips' of the quad, making Ace-any
sometimes playable ($500 equity!).
Tropicana currently has AA cracked wheel baack!
If you LOSE with AA in your hand, $20 min in the pot,
then you spin a prize wheel worth $40 - $200.
Good deal!
GL,
Martin.
BTW - MOST of the rooms give $1.25/$1 hourly in comps;
TROP - I like the most, bec. they add it directly onto your slot club
card acct! Also - they have a decent $5 sandwich/combo menu or hdog
and chips, if you prefer.
EW-CB - you must get a 'food' voucher, in $1.25 increments, for ea.
hour you play. I never played past 4 hrs, so I don't know if you can
earn more than the $5 coupon.
Trop players more regular; EW tends to get some regulars, but even on
weekends, some will only sit in for $40, if they lose it, they leave.
RIVER PALMS - I haven't played there in quite some time.
$2-6 spread limit, and bonuses on quad Faces/Aces, Royals.
Other properties, I'm not so sure on their comp policies.

Hey Martin and other Laughlin Live Poker players,
I dug up this post 'cause we have a new lurker over here on this
site. Can you give a rundown on your favorite rooms and why?
He is a VP player too. He enjoys doing downtown like alot of us.
So who has the fun rooms?
