Thunderbird Casino Poker Room: changes
Thunderbird's poker room in Oklahoma has just recently changed their rake from 5 max to 3 max. They moved from the east side of the building into a nicer room in the center of the casino. They added a progressive bad beat jackpot, which started out at 5k. New tables and chairs are being ordered and eventually they will incorporate shuffle masters.

Re: Thunderbird Casino Poker Room: changes
Are you sure they changed their rake? From what I understand it is still set at $5 max with an extra $1 taken from the SB to feed the jackpot that doesn't start until Monday.

As of right now, they rake $3 for the "house" and take $1 for the bad beat jackpot/pool. The one buck for the pool is for the players only, and Thunderbird only recieves the $3 rake.

Re: Thunderbird Casino Poker Room: changes
Glad to hear they are changing rooms. I hope it's bigger than the first room, it could get pretty congested sometimes.
Have they started holding touney's there yet? |

Re: Thunderbird Casino Poker Room: changes
The "new" room is slightly bigger. The ceiling height is a lot higher (which helps). As for tournaments, those are still in the works. They are a priority, just not at the top of the list. I would guess before the end of August we have freerolls and other multi tourneys.

Re: Thunderbird Casino Poker Room: changes
I really hope you are right but I honestly think you may be mistaken. I don't see T-bird dropping their rake to $3 max to make the players happy, because honestly from what I've seen since I've played there, they could really care less what makes the players happy.

Re: Thunderbird Casino Poker Room: changes
I am right, I am working there right now. We have semi-new management. We are currently only raking the $3 for the house and the $1 for the player's bad beat jackpot/pool, as of JULY 23rd.
peace and good luck robert |

Also, we now have 1/2 nl with $100 buy-in and we reduce our rake to $2 at 5 handed or less.
