3/6 limit is the only game I'll play because let's be honest I'm cheap. Unfortunately they only offer 1/3 No limit because of their current staffing shortage. They only had one table running and it was completely full. The poker room itself didn't look like it had anything special either. It's honestly quite a shame because this is the closest casino to my house and the only casino in the Des Moines area with a poker room. Meskwaki shut their room down recently and the other casinos that offer poker are way too far for me to drive. I've also heard from a past employee that the no limit tables are practically unapproachable right not because of their current clientele. If you're like me and play casino poker recreationally, this is not a good place to go. Otherwise the staff was very friendly from what I could tell.
