Finding the Caesar’s Palace poker room is like finding the perfect pair of jeans. It is difficult to find but once you have you are pleased you have made the effort. It is a poker playing haven away from all the busy sound of Casino and bars. If you want to focus on your game, then this is the place for you. Obviously this has some downsides. One being that you don’t get as many ‘have-a-goes’, as you really have to be looking for the poker room.

Caesar’s Palace poker room is easily one of the largest poker rooms in Vegas it is well decorated and the plasma screens adorn nearly every surface. It is a great playing environment.

CAESARS PALACE POKER ROOM ENTRANCE

The competition lacks the high number of drunken tourists that other rooms have, possibly because of the location, but it the competition is actually quite soft.

The dealers are professional and in the most part pleasant. They make few mistakes and they are fast, which is great for the hands per hour rate. That being said the dealers could maybe sharpen up on the pleasantries as it goes a long way to making a good poker experience.

The management at Caesars’ Palace is very good. It seems like a seasoned and professional team run the floor. They could show the dealers a thing or two about customer service.

The best thing about Caesar’s Palace for tournament players is the separate tournament room. The buy ins are low and the tournament structures are one of the best in town.
