Post and say hello if you will be a reg in this room.
I have heard that there will be 12 tables to start.

Poker coming back here next month so I hear, a small 6 table poker room.
I haven't looked at their website in years but, without a definite starting date, they do say, "Poker will be located outside of The Sportsbook with 6 tables available Friday-Sunday."
They're also advertising for dealers. "Poker Dealer Will Keep All Accrued Tips." If I'm not mistaken, previously the dealers had to pool their tips.
I'm hearing March they're going to see how it goes Friday-Sunday with 6 tables and go from there.
March came and went. I assume no one has heard anything else?
That's too bad .. I'm sorry(?) to report that the casino in Milwaukee is finally reopening post-CV poker in May .. and they have a much larger market than yours.
I'm sorry that you don't have poker back yet, but I'm also reporting that there's still hope for you as a much larger market is 'finally' getting back on the poker trail. GL
Here we are in June and the website still hasn't changed.
The website now has posted August 1st as the grand opening date. Looks like the room will be where it was before open Friday-Sunday from what the site says.
I went up this evening and looks like they have all new tables and chairs and that the room is ready to open soon, so I'd say the August 1st date is probably pretty accurate.
Bravo Poker Live says they have a soft opening July 12th.

Played the last couple of weekends here and the soft launch seems to be going pretty well. Great to have live poker back in central PA again. Looking forward to the full Grand Opening August 1st!

Me too. Gonna meet friends Friday night out there and see if I can get on a table.
The 11 table room is open from 12PM to 4AM on a Saturday, but they only have 6 dealers working from 12PM to 6PM. LOL Plus will only ever open one 2-5 table, even when the list is long and a table is open. They just open another 1-3 instead. Had high hopes for this opening but so far I'm disappointed. Hoping for improvements.
I'm was hoping that they'd get their weekly PLO8 game running again, but I haven't seen an interest list for it yet.
Is this room still open? I am driving through there Saturday evening and hoping to stay a few hours.
