| Rio Poker Room Description |
|
The Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino is the current home to the world’s most prestigious poker tournament series, The World Series of Poker. The WSOP has been at the Rio since 2005, with the events taking place in the expansive banquet halls; specifically the Amazon Room. The rest of the year, however, the Rio offers an intimate 10 table poker room which spreads a daily 1/3 No Limit Hold’em game, and an occasional 3/6 Limit Hold’em Game.
The Rio Poker Room is equipped with the Genesis Bravo poker room management system for tracking comps and the wait lists. Comps are awarded at a rate of $1/Hour on the Total Rewards Card. Players also earn Tier Credits toward higher levels of card ranking.

Rio room enjoyable
By: guynotes Date: 09/20/10
    
I found the room in good shape. Clean, well maintained, open and airy. Close to the bathrooms and exits. Quickly seated and initial chips available at the desk. Sign in at the table and the dealers kept good track of those new players and those that moved seats. Tables were not bad, but not what I would expect from the Home of the WSOP. They were clean with no tears or spots, but just a littl... Read more »

Unimpressive room at the home of the WSOP
By: Grange95 Date: 07/07/09
    
I played two sessions of 3-4 hours each over the 4th of July and WSOP Main Event weekend, so my experience may vary from the typical experience for this room. The room has 8 regular tables, though 6 more had been added out front for extra WSOP traffic. The location is good, by the sports book. Only half of the tables have auto-shufflers. The chairs were well below average for better Vegas poke... Read more »

This is the home of the WSOP?
By: rybraz Date: 01/29/09
    
I'll give a 3 here, only b/c the sportsbook and restrooms are close, and at least it wasn't a rope-off like some other places. The 5+1 rake during the day/evening pretty much sucks as well. Tables seemed newer, chairs were average. I expected a lot better for the WSOP host.... Read more »

First time playing in the room, won't go out of my way
By: Clem2754 Date: 07/10/08
    
Chairs were not good at all- I would not want to sit in those for all that long. Not a bad location. Rather average all things considered.... Read more »

An insult
By: Dajo Date: 09/30/07
    
I expected MUCH more, the rooms was a mess, with trash on unused tables, chairs stowed in the corners, etc. NOT the way I like it. The tables that were occupied were cramped.... Read more »
