The main concern will be is if they OD with rake. I think 2-5 will be the minimum stakes it would even make sense to play if they do that

If Hard Rock runs anything close to the tournaments they do in Fort Lauderdale it will be incredible.


Hard rock/ballys will be years away. Resorts world is the only loop that can come into play 2026

Yep. Poker is stated as part of their NYC plan, and entering a market that has no poker is worlds away from entering a market that has one 900lb gorilla. (Though if they could have anticipated the mess MGM was going to make of Borgata, maybe they would have taken a shot.)

They wanna keep everything under wraps, only thing theyre admitting is live dealers, everything else gets the same copy paste answer


yeah i dont put any stock in that meaning there will be no poker. they want to be a premier destination, and that will include poker if i had to guess.

I'm not saying they definitely won't I just don't think it's a foregone conclusion that they definitely will especially early on.

Hopefully they do.

Yea definitely doesnt mean poker is off the table, just they not giving out details yet. For poker they need to hire a specific staff to train and learn how to deal poker especially different variants.


It is worth mentioning, even though the first opening is a partial rollout, if they actually open 250 tables between March and June, it’s already a massive casino at that point. The data’s a little annoying to aggregate but it’s almost definitely a top 5 casino by table count instantly.

The need to train a separate dealer and management team is the obstacle but I still think we mighttttttttttt get poker in March and I would be sooooooooooooo happpppyyyyy


Most likely they will bring management and dealers from other properties who are versed in poker to ease the opening up


This is fantastic that we have chance of poker in next few months. I hope they have plo and sell salami sandwiches.


Is anybody here going to play and be regulars at the room if theyres poker? I'd like to be from the ground up

an alcoholic dude scared my wife on the empty-ish subway as she thought he was coming straight at her (he wasn’t.) .

If i was to make a parody of some flatland tourist describing nyc as gotham, this would be the story id tell.


Resorts world unredacted documents, no mention yet of size or guarantee that it will be either the first rollout…

But multiple documents specifically call out a poker room.

Christmas is earlyyyyy


Where did you see the unredacted documents?

Saw it on a TikTok, was unable to navigate to it on the ny facility location board site, but ChatGPT found it and said that’s where it’s from

Found it on site now. Under application materials, the hours of operation document. Little bit of a grey spot, apparently the poker room will only be 16 hrs/day
