So I turn 21 on Saturday so off to casino I go! From what I hear the Ameristar is the best casino for poker around where I live. Is this true? Their hotel rates on their website are $200, is there anyway to get them cheaper? What do I need to know since I'm totally clueless regarding B/M. Thanks!

Read the B&M Newbie guide posted above. I assume you have a car, so just drive a little ways down hiway 210, there are plenty of regular motels with regular rates nearby.

I'm curious as well about the Kansas City Casinos. I will be moving there in January of 2006. I have played alot in Sioux City, Omaha, Des Moines, and the Quad Cities. I really enjoyed Harrahs in Omaha, they have a lower rake than all of the others and the players didn't seem that great either, but there was quite a wait. They have a Harrahs do they not in KC?
I've only played at the Isle of Capri in Kansas City and that place is bad for poker. The players were bad, but they only had one table open on a Saturday Night this summer, I thought that was pretty pathetic. |

I wasn't planning on gettering there until around 10pm. Is this too late? Will I be buried on the waitlists? Also, I was planning on starting out at 3/6 since I've never played B/M before but would like to play as high as 10/20 at somepoint in the night. Is it a pain to switch tables, change chips, etc? Do dealers do that at the tables no problem? What about drinks, are they free at any level? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] THanks

I don't think I've seen any hold 'em games there other than 3/ and 5/30, along with the NL game. Changing chips, however, shouldn't be a problem. The last Saturday night that I was there I had about a 30 min wait for 3/6.

What do you mean by 3/ and 5/30?

That's a bummer. I hoped to play higher than 3/6, but I wasn't planning on playing as high as 15/30.

Ameristar is great. I've never had a bad session there. You should be able to get in after 30 minutes or so if not right away. 3/6 is a kill game to 6/12, which is nice because your advantage is amplified in these kill games. Usually 5-7 people see a flop in the 3/6 game and 3-5 in the kill game. Have fun and tell us how it went!
