Jax FL Cardrooms?

I'm heading down to the Jacksonville area for a week of vacation; does anyone know if there are some good cardrooms in the area? The only thing my googling turned up is a poker cruise that sounds like crap.

Thanks. Have you played there? What's the action/room like?

Since it's a cardroom in Florida, the max bet is $2. As a result, more hands see later streets and showdowns. Many people here refuse to acknowledge it as "real poker". Oh, and by FL law, they're open noon to midnight. They may or may not have tournaments, which may or may not violate the Florida law, but at any rate, cardrooms here do spread them. For the record, I have yet to play Jacksonville.

Enjoy your stay in sunny Florida.

I've heard good things about the poker room there on the Suncruz casino boat. Vague good things though.

Since it's a cruise they don't have to abide by the silly $2 max bet rule FL has.
