Games
Limit hold 'em: 3/6 and 6/12, usually with a full kill.

No-limit hold 'em: 1/2 (40-200 buyin), 2/5 (200-1000 buyin) and 5/10 blinds 500-5000 buyin.

Minimum 2x pot to trigger the live straddle. Straddler acts last in the preflop betting round. Preflop chopping of the blinds is allowed.

Wait Time: Varies; during busiest times waits can be up to an hour.



Rake: $4 for 7-9 players, $3 for 5-6 players, $2 for 2-4 players. No flop, no drop. Rake is taken from the pot after the flop.

Posting: New players do not need to post to enter a game.

Shuffling: Four tables have Shufflemaster shuffling machines.

Atmosphere
Neighborhood:

Parking: A decent sized parking lot (about 50 spaces) right on site; a large parking garage across the street.

Tables and Chairs: Nice 9-player tables, standard fixed-leg chairs. Nicely padded, and a bit fancy. The felt is nice and green, with a clean commit line.

Smoking: No smoking allowed in the building under California law. However, smokers walk immediately outside the "back door" in the corner and puff away in the parking lot. Door to smoking area is kept closed so it doesn't bother non smokers, even if you sit next to it.

Service and Comps
Full-service restaurant with table-side service until 11:30 pm nightly.
