Mostly arrogant Seattle/Bellevue yuppie types who didn’t have any more of a clue at what they were doing than the average stiff at the $3 tables in my hometown joint.

There were more ****ing morons GIVING away their money last night than at most casinos I have patronized. Which is the perfect opportunity for me to interrupt my own story to mention what I believe the inverse relationship to many so-called black chip players and quality play. However, the play ended up being a bust as the dealer turned a 5 and caught an ace. I was under the understanding that under WA law this wasn’t allowed. When it was pretty clear he was not going to split, I asked if I could buy one of his 7s and when he said yes, the dealer didn’t intercede. I was surprised that certain rules seemed a bit lax, The player to my right at one point had a 7,7 against a dealer 5. which is a complete joke considering where I am with my counting.

Additionally we ran into at least one dealer who seemed hypersenstitve about counters, and I got my first heat ever. Everything was 8D H1S7 with no surrender and mostly crap penetration. So - the obvious is revealed to me - food comps are only good if you can use them. I’ll jump forward a bit and say that when I received my first food comp, we were turned away for coffee and dessert at the nice restaurant (which is mostly understandable because it was getting late, but the staff were EXTREMELY rude) the so-called dessert/coffee shop was really just a coffee shop, very few desserts to speak of, and when all we wanted was a coffee and cheesecake, the buffet and cafe just seemed like overkill. They had a nice sit-down restaurant, a dessert/coffee shop, a cafe, a sushi place and the buffet. Amazing tall ceilings are the focal point here down a single, long corridor, two large pits with a bar facility separating them - and a LOT of blackjack tables.ĭining options were NOT impressive. Even on a packed Saturday night it was easy to find a spot. They have a very nice, large parking garage with easy access to the main facility.

So quicker in, quicker out, stay later, all that good stuff.įirst impressions on the facility were very good. I love to play when out visiting family, and the roughly 30 minute drive time is far superior to my now second favorite, Tulalip Resort Casino in Marysville. Here’s my report.įirst, I have to say that the convenience is amazing. So last night (11/30) I had the opportunity to play at the new Snoqualmie Casino in Snoqualmie, WA.
