Silver Legacy



The largest and most visually striking of the downtown casinos in Reno. The large central dome is one of the best-known features of the city skyline, and contains within it the "silver mine".

Games
Note: the room is willing to run anything, so whatever they can find 6 people to play will run. There didn't seem to be any cash game running the entire Monday I visited, so I'm not sure one ever runs, but it seems likely that 1/2 NL or 2/4 Limit would run occasionally.

Wait Time: Not sure games ever run, so the wait time can be very very long. Go play blackjack while you wait.

Game Nature: Not sure how cash games go, but the tournament went very aggressive and very fast.

Rake: Unknown.

Posting: Unknown.

Shuffling: All tables are PokerPro automated tables.

Kills: No kills?

Atmosphere
A small area near one of the corner exterior doors (and near the sports book), the poker "room" at the Silver Legacy is three fully-automated PokerPro tables behind a low half-wall. Two televisions high on the walls let you watch the game while you play.

Tables and Chairs: 10-seat automated tables with slide-in cup holders. Chairs are super-comfy, swivel, wheeled, leather-padded chairs with no arms.

Parking: Hundreds of spaces in the attached multistory parking garage.

Smoking: No smoking in the poker area, but drift can occur from the nearby banks of slot machines.

Service and Comps
Occasional cocktail service. The poker nook has its own little mini-fridge with cold bottled water for players.
