The PH Poker room should be renamed a Poker Area instead. Poker at PH can be found in a roped off area of the casino surrounded by table games and (in a couple spots) directly beside slot machines. You can say that there can be a good amount of excitement around you, or noise that is so loud, dealers can not be heard, depends on your point of view.
Competition:
Good action in this room. Being smaller than the big rooms on the strip, this room will generally gather tourist (which in turn brings in some local grinders). Either way, novice players should not feel out of place in this room.
P&C's:
I did not ask or witness any promotions while I was there. Comps aren't much (I think $1/hr).
Dealers:
I had great dealers while I played there. They kept the game going, were conversational, friendly and helpful.
F&D:
Good service while I was there. Ordered food table side (PF Chang's and Earl of Sandwich are available); they were fast and I never waited long for drinks.
Management:
Only interaction with management was getting seated and cashing out and I have nothing negative to say and no one stood out as extraordinary.
