Re: Club One Casino Review
Games
Limit hold 'em: 1/2, 2/4, 3/6, 4/8, 6/12 with a full kill, 15/30 with a full kill.
No-limit hold 'em: 1/1 blinds 20-40 buy-in. 2/2 blinds 40-100 buy-in. 2/5 200-1000 buy-in.
Omaha/8: spread daily upon request; also, every Saturday at 9:00a.
Pineapple: every Tuesday night with the 15/30 game.
By far the largest card room in the central valley.
Rake: The rake on most games is $4 collection + $1 jackpot. On 1/2, the rake is only $1.50 + 0.50 jackpot.
Blinds on all games were standard.
Posting: New players need not post.
Shuffling: Shufflemaster machines are standard on all tables.
Game Character: The 4/8 double jackpot game was a standard loose passive game with some LAGs and a couple tricky players. Play gets worse and looser as you go down limits; better and tighter as you go up.
Wait Time: Relatively short at any time, due to the large number of tables.
