Reviews of poker rooms across the country
The Hollywood Casino at Charles Town Races poker room, as with our recent visit to the Mount Airy poker room, was part of a larger venture to an out-of-the-way location. We recently shared our trek through West Maryland including this short venture into West Virginia. If you’re headed out to the Holywood Casino at Charles…
MGM National Harbor is one of two major poker rooms in the Baltimore-Washington area. While Maryland Live! sits beside BWI airport just minutes from Baltimore, MGM is on the Maryland-Virginia line, close to Washington, DC. The newest room in the Mid-Atlantic, MGM hasn’t lost that new casino shine and comes with all of the required…

Ocala Gainesville’s nearest neighbor is Oxford Downs, and there is clearly a lot of overlap in players across…
The Creek Entertainment Gretna poker room is one of very few Florida panhandle card room options. We decided to check it out as we journeyed from Jacksonville to our recent stay at Santa Rosa Beach. Our visit proved convenient, if not earth-shattering. It was quite a departure from the bustle of Florida poker rooms in…
