Bay Area Poker Cash Games And Tournaments:
The Bay Area provides fanstastic opportunities for even the most avid of poker players. The selection of poker rooms between the San Francisco and San Jose area is exceptional to say the least. There is everything from established and upscale casinos like Bay 101 and Lucky Chances, which have hosted World Poker Tour Events, to smaller action packed cardrooms that provide local opportunities. Some words of advice from a PokerFornian:
If Texas Holdem cash games are your thing then we recommend the Lucky Chances Casino in Colma. Bay 101 comes in a close second. Lucky Chances is our number 1 pick because their games are the most profitabile. In our opinion Lucky Chances has the highest density of donkeys in the Bay Area ;-). Their max buy-ins also allows for 100 big blind stacks in some games. A lot of casinos restrict players to shorter stacks. For example the 2,3,5 spread limit games of Bay 101 have a max buy-in capped at 400 dollars. More Big Blinds means your edge is that much greater, unless of course you are a shortstack pro.
If you prefer playing Tournament Poker then look no further than bay 101. Their tournaments run every day of the week. Bay 101 also hosts the Bay 101 open, the satellites to the World Poker Tour, and the Televised Shooting Stars tourmanent. They showcase different types of games like omaha, have rebuys and generally good structures which allow for plenty of play.
