Reviews
BY: Benay K.- Personally, I really like this place. Especially since
they built their amazing tournament room.
Positives:
1) Tables are spaced well enough apart, that you don't get the back of your
chair hit every time the guy at the next table moves. And, the isles are easy to
walk between tables.
2) When you play at any yellow chip table (so, $100+ buy in), you get comped
food.
3) Table side service, and the food is good!
4) Good cash dealers
5) Clean bathrooms.
6) Clean tables and chips
7) Great floor guys
8) Nice huge tournament room
Negatives:
1) Tournament dealers are 50/50. Some are good, some really suck, and have no
freakin clue.
2) Depending on the table you sit at in the tournie room, you are either
comfortable of Freakin freezing. Like icicles hanging from your eye balls cold.
115 degrees outside? Bring a jacket, just in case you are stuck in the North
Pole.
3) No longer have table service in the tournie room. That's BS

Just like HG Casino (see review) and
Commerce Casino (see review).... I've been coming here for about 10 years. If I
was writing this review some 5 years ago, maybe it'd be a 4 star.
Back in the day, I really digged this place. Games were a little more
difficult, but definitely beatable. The best thing about this place is that it
was featured on the World Poker Tour (WPT), so once a year during the "Legends
of Poker" event you'd get a ton of celebrities and poker pros.... which in turn
would bring out the fishies. They've expanded it, made the tournament area
bigger, but it's gotten a little less classy (in my eyes).
The NL Texas Hold 'em section is nice. Games seem to be more loosy goosy here.
If that's what you like, by all means. Lots of locals that seem to have an
"I'm a much better poker player than you" stick up their butts. That's what I
don't like. They do have a good players card deal.... free meals with at least
one hour of play.
FOOD!!! Of all the local L.A. poker rooms, this place is great for their
kabobs. Just like I said in my review of H.G. (which caters to Asians), The
Bike has a lot of Middle Eastern peeps. So their kabobs are AMAZING!!!
