Yes they have poker. They had a WPT event there.
I was there last week but didnt get to play any poker so I dont know anything about the games.

I have not been there, but I have been told that Atlantis (assuming you mean the one in the Bahamas) DOES NOT have poker. A friend of mine went down there stag (preplanned trip after a break up) hoping to play lots of poker and was very disappointed. My understanding is that they got special permission for the WPT event from the government... can someone else confirm or deny?

Unless they have recently added poker in the last few months, this is a lie. They did NOT have poker before the WPT got there.

A lie? Give me a break. They most certainly did have a WPT event there. I could be mistaken about them having poker on a regular basis because I didnt go there to play. But either way, its not a lie.

Lol. Of course they had a WPT event there. Did you even read my post? I said they did not have poker before the WPT got there.

Poker is not approved by the Gaming Commision in the Bahamas, thus no poker in Atlantis. Yes, the PokerStars WPT event was there and there was an exclusion from the GC for this event and side-games to be held during that time.

Default No poker at the Atlantis

I was there after the WPT event and they had no poker. I was told there was no poker at any of the other casinos either.
