Monte Carlo Poker Room
The poker room at Monte Carlo has the feel of an old pub,
with nice dark-wood paneling, it seems like a place that would have higher limit games, but it's just the opposite. We highly recommend the Monte Carlo Poker Room for low stakes hold'em players. The staff is very friendly and helpful and they offer lessons for beginners twice a day. $2-$4 Texas Hold'em was the most popular game during our visit.
Number of tables: 9
Games: $2-$4 with single $2.00 blind, $3-$6, $4-$8 with $1-$2 blind ($2 before the flop??), No Limit Hold'em with $1-$2, blinds and No Limit with $2-$5 blinds, $1-$5 7 card stud
