Why not post it up... Kelowna now has Casino Poker! Hurray.

Only option before was to travel to Penticton or Coquitlam...

So I'm wondering, from your guy's experience is a brand-new poker room fishier than an old one

I would assume so, but reinforcement is always good!

Thinkin of headin to the casino for the first time

I am possibly mistaken...but isn't this the same electronic poker they have in Vernon?

If it is... I'll never play there. I've not spoken to anyone who has played in Vernon that will ever play there again.

Excalibur just pulled their electronic poker tables out because they were not popular. In fact they were a hotbed of collusion and cheating.

I'll stick to the home game and and PoCo thanks.

I'll run down there at lunchtime to see. I'll be soooo disappointed if it is only pokerpro tables. Maybe when the full renovation is done they'll have proper tables with CHIPS.

I'll post in a couple of hours.

They tried one of those machines at Yellowhead here....lasted about 2 weeks, then it was gone. Don't think the experiment went well.

Ok...the poker room there isn't even close to being done...so apparently it is neither?

Just got back. There is no poker room yet. They haven't opened up any of the new section, not until next year. The latest rumor is that they are trying to acquire more space downstairs where the boat store used to be (Malibu Marine for anyone who is familiar). But those rumors have been floating for years; the last one I heard was that they were going to take over another space that is currently held by a beer/wine store, but that has never happened and it's been two years at least since I heard that for the first time.

Sorry, folks. Still have to travel to Penticton.

Or my house. lol.
