Winnipeg finally has an actual poker room, with a poker manager and no bingo and slots drowning out the chip shuffling.
Downstairs now, 20 tables set up to hande even the busiests cash game nights, Tues and Thus tournaments are pulling in 150 entries or more thanks to the new alternate list system. You bust out, you can buy back in up until the first card flies in level 4. And while you may not get a seat immediately, you will get one an a fresh stack. They will start with 10 (or even 11 last Thursday), and every tournament table has a shuffler!
Full food and beverage services, free coffee/tea machine, enough side tables to put them on, and enough space to eat tableside without having someone at the next table put their elbow (or worse) into your food.
Bad Beat Jackpot at $120k and going up $500 / day, comps and the promise of even more enhancements as they are able.
Well done.
