Atmosphere
The poker area is not separated from the main casino. The rest of the casino contains $2 Blackjack (and a progressive table), Pai Gow, 4 Card Poker, 3 card poker, ultimate texas hold'em and Spanish 21. The casino is inside a bowling alley, but in a separate room with what must be fairly thick glass - I couldn't hear the bowling even though I was just on the other side of the glass from it. The casino is kinda small and can tend to feel a bit cramped.

The poker room has several TVs that are usually tuned to whatever major sports game is playing. placed very well to view from most any angle of the casino.

Neighborhood: The casino is located on a very busy thoroughfare.

Parking: Plenty of parking is available.

Tables and Chairs: 10-seat tables with very worn felt and decent vinyl rail padding. Chairs are ok.

Service and Comps
Frequent service from the restaurant and bar. Reasonably prompt and frequent service. You can order food from the menu and have it delivered for you to eat at the table.
