A lot of passive tight players, Maybe 1 dangerous player at a 9 handed table and shockingly I'd put the average age at 45 or so. Sure doesn't hurt the action though as over 80 tables were going at 8p on a Sunday night!įound the competition at $5-$5 to be pretty marginal. Ouch! But a bargain compared to the ridiculous $7 rake. Only figured out later through observation that they ask because there is a $5 'tax' for a table change. Dealer asked if new player or table change in a heavy accent that after the 6th time I finally understood.
Took my rack to the 300-500 area and was immediately seated. What did I know? $5 chips at commerce are yellow! I asked for a rack of red birds at the cage and was met with a confused look.
Like many poker rooms there wasn't exactly an idiots guide to where the games are and how to get into them but a friendly employee sent me in the right direction. Wow there are a lot of LA degens out there. Goodbroom, free wifi, nice comforter and lots of fluffy pillows.Īfter check in I walk down to connecting casino and was overwhelmed by the size of this place and knee deep primarily Asian table game players. Figured I'd make it easy on myself after suffering in the past thru nightmare LA traffic and stay right at the hotel there. Virgin voyage to the infamous Commerce Casino.
