Rio Player Room Review
Just expected more. from the home of the WSOP
12/27/06, Player: elf
Total Rating: 3.35
Room Quality Rating: 3
Room Quality Description: For the poker room at the home of the World Series of Poker I just expected a larger room with more presence and personality. It's not a large room in terms of areas, as four Rio poker rooms would fit in the area of one Orleans poker room. I was there on a late Friday afternoon and a late Saturday afternoon and both times there were two 2/5NL games and one 4/8Limit game going and that was it. The decor was pleasant though the seating at the table closest to the front desk was a bit cramped and the palyers opposite the dealer were too close to the wall.
Competition Rating: 2
Competition Description: Well, either a) I just didn't have my game, b) everyone else at the table was exceptional or c) I couldn't catch any cards, but I just could not make a dent at the 4/8. By the way, my story is 'C' and I'm sticking with it. I didn't have time to check it out late at night when (hopefully) the drunks would have been there donking off their chips.
Dealer Rating: 5
Dealer Description: Absolutely professional and courteous. I saw no mistakes in the limited time it took me to bust out. They were just the right amount of talkative, not too chatty and not silent automotons.
Cocktail Rating: 5
Cocktail Description: Only ordered a red bull myself but it arrived quickly and pleasantly. I didn't notice anyone else with drink issues and the servers took orders frequently, often checking all the tables twice before gonig to fill the orders.
Management Rating: 4
Management Description: It took repeating myself several times to get it through the floorman's head that I had no interest in 2/5NL. However they rushed out and got me a players card in no time which was greatly appreciated.
Comps Rating: 3
Comps Description: The standard Harrah's $1/hour comp applies here and there are jackpots for either quads and above or just straight flushes and up, I forgot.
