This is correct. It's about 45-60 min from the Tri-Cities, so about 4 hrs from Seattle.

I'm assuming you're interested in this. I was surprised to see this quote: The rake is only $2, and we only take it once there is a flop.

$2 rake!

No.. that can't be all there is. A few months back, the Muck was nearly empty and someone said that everyone was at Pendleton. Then everyone was talking about how everyone did at Pendelton.. etc.

I got the impression that it was a big tournament that lasted several days with many events.

Wildhorse casino outside of Pendleton has a small poker room. They have several tournaments a year. Last week was a small 4 day tourney with buyins of $100+10 to $200+10 which included a free dinner. Prime rib on the last night. Tournament was held in the Bingo hall. They had 326 for the first event and 286 for the last.

Their next big tourney is the Fall Poker Round-up, Nov. 2nd to Nov. 12th. Details not yet available.

If you follow the link he posted you will see the part about their tournaments. They host a pretty big one and it was recent i remember several people heading down to it. It was supposed to be televised.
