Best poker room and why?

With STR82ACE's chip challenge and OS KID's awesome collection pic, got me thinking about all the poker rooms I've played in. Having never been to Vegas and only played poker in Ontario, Quebec and Senica (in Buffalo), I only have an handful to chose from in trying to think of witch poker room was the best imo. I'm using staff service, cleanliness, table availability, limit availability, tournament availability, location, casino decor, and certainly cashes and or profit as my basis for comparison. For me, I dont play poker every day or to pay the bills, I play for fun. By that i mean to win $$$ (bottom line, right?). I think my choice would be Casino Niagara. Sure the service sucks, getting a table is damn near impossible with out calling ahead a thousand hours in advance and even then..., tables are meh, the casino is aging, the buffet is only ok, however i've made enough money there to keep me in the game comfortably. So for me profit would be the key factor.
Where is your fav poker room and why?

For low limit NL Holdem Niagara is my favourite ontario poker room by far. Great mix of tourists and regulars. Why Rama still doesn't let you list by phone is beyond me but the reason i no longer go.

If we're not talking just Ontario casino's (which all suck) I would have to say my favorite poker room to play In is the borgata casino down in AC.. There was no wait for the tables, they spread 1/2-75/150 of various games such as NLH,FLH,PLO, good mixture of good and bad players and also Sexy waitress's... VERY CLEAN and not be excluded their great structured daily tournaments were awesome.. Check it out... And if I really had to pick a Ontario casino... Prob Windsor..

It's hard to step into any Ontario room after you've been to Vegas. (Never been to AC)

My table hit the bad beat last night at Niagara. $24gs
Guy lost Aces full of tens to Aces full of Kings.
Guy with Tens won $12,000 (50%), Guy with Kings won $6000+pot($200ish)[25%] and the rest of us split the other 6000 by 8 people (we got $760 each)
sweet but too bad it was a full table!!

Niagara or Fallsview..? The bad beat at Niagara was only like 2K 5 days ago and goes up pretty slowly... It had been won only the previous day.

It was at $1-$2 at Niagara, it went at about 7:30 or so last night for little over 24,000
the bad beat is combined between the two casinos. Crazy to think that if it was at 2k 5 days ago, at a dollar for every hand, those two places are pumping out like 4000 hands of poker a day
