Poker in ARK and MISSOURI, Ashley Adams, 16. Jan 2003 21:12
    View ( Message | Thread )       Return to Thread List
I've got a trip planned and want to play poker along the way. Here's my route. If you can recommend some places to play, I'd be very grateful.

Starting in Cinci, Ohio, going to New Albany (I know there's poker there at Caesar's) then to Tunica (I know there's poker there too) then to Little Rock, then to Fayetteville, Arkansas, then to Springfield, Missouri, then to St. Louis, then to Indianapolis, Indiana, and finally back to Cincinnati.

Any suggestions?

You can play in St. Louis at Ameristar Casino off of 1-70 in St. Charles (right at the bridge over the Missouri River), as well as the Admiral Riverboat downtown. I think that Ameristar is much nicer (clean room, non-smoking).

Hi Ashley, I used to be a poker dealer in St. louis, and the games are pretty good there. I don't know what limits or games you play, but they have a 20-40 HE game on mon. wed. and fri., other than that, it is all low limit. They also play 5-10 omaha with a kill every night. I now live in Nashville, Tenn., so I play a lot in New Albany. They play 10-20 HE everyday, and 15-30 on the weekends. They also spread 30-60 stud on weekends and some 50-100 stud. The holdem games tend to be pretty loose especially on weekends. The only negative thing I have to say about New Albany, is that the management is poor, they are constantly making bad floor decisions, and some of the dealers are pretty rough also, but good luck with your trip and I hope you break it off in them. Bye bye

Thanks Tom for your info. This is very helpful. My main concern about these casinos is the cigarette smoke. I found Caesar's smoky, but they had no problem with my gas mask. I'm hoping the one in St. Louis is as accepting of my, cough cough, disability.
