I like the new food truck festivals, Asian markets, and car meets etc. that have been held in their parking lots lately, very cool. It brings a busy energy that had the whole place packed. I also like the new vibrant paint / decor. Also better food options in house.But, I don't like paying $2 for bottled water. Very fair bonus payouts on table games, w optional large jackpot bets. All still w $5 minimum bets. Also cool to offer high hand bonuses on table games, I've never seen that anywhere before. Management all seemed pleasant to me (after reading previous reviews). Dealers weren't bad, but also seemed to have low morale, and when I noticed and asked, a few just said they can't talk about it. Maybe changes w new ownership, or rebranding to win derby, and policy changes, idk. Security was nice to me, while trying to walk in w a slurpee. (sometimes other places are ready to draw their weapon for this) The $1/2 game was not that great, but the $1/3 was very splashy. Tournaments is where they seem to really excel, multiple dailies, very fairly structured, blind levels, and starting stacks. Fair mix of crushers & recs. I hope this place never sells and becomes a huge entertainment complex. Hotel, swimming pools, tiki bars, pickleball courts, driving range, they seem to have enough land for it.
