What’s up at Wind Creek’s poker room?

PA poker rooms opening one by one

Other poker rooms in Pennsylvania could be reopening any day. According to a spokesperson for the PGCB, casinos submit plans and safety protocols for review. Once they receive final approval from the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board (PGCB), they can reopen.

It’s positive news for poker players who have been waiting a long time to get back to live games. Casinos in Pennsylvania started shutting down to slow the spread of coronavirus in mid-March. They did not begin to welcome back guests until June, and poker rooms were not open due to the social nature of the game.

PlayPennsylvania has contacted poker room reps for Hollywood Casino, Wind Creek Casino, and Presque Isle Downs Casino but they had no concrete plans to share.

We will continue to update you here as more rooms open or set a date for reopening.

Live Poker returned to Rivers Philadelphia but closed again

Rivers Casino Philadelphia reopened its poker room on Oct. 23. It did so with approval for up to 14 tables with a capacity of 100 guests. Under normal circumstances, the room has 28 tables and offers a variety of poker games but now the action returned with primarily No Limit Texas Hold’em cash games.

According to a recent press release, in addition to the existing casino-wide safety measures, the following precautions are in effect for the poker room (when it is open):

• Masks must be worn at all times
• Poker dealers will wear both a mask and a face shield
• Each poker table in play will have plexiglass dividers, separating players and the dealer
• A maximum of seven players allowed per table
• Frequent and thorough cleaning of all cards, chips and surfaces
• Only sanitized chips bought from the poker room cage will be used in play
• No food, beverage or smoking is permitted in the poker room or anywhere on the Rivers Casino gaming floor

Peter Longi, assistant general manager at Rivers Casino Philadelphia, commented:

“Poker players are excited to be back at the tables, enjoying the game they love. Our reopening was carefully planned with the safety of our team and guests being the primary concern. We’re eager to welcome back our poker team.”

To assist with social distancing, players are encouraged to call the poker room at 215-717-3883 to put their name on the waiting list when the room reopens. Guests can also check the Bravo Poker Live online or the website’s mobile app for the Rivers Casino poker room up-to-the-minute game status. In addition, players will have a chance to win their share of the $100,000 Bad Beat Jackpot. The minimum qualifying hand is quad 2s.

Rivers had to close its poker room once again along with the rest of the casino until at least Jan. 1, 2021.

Here’s a look at a poker table at Rivers Philadelphia:

Players pine for poker

When the PGCB released its casino reopening protocols in late May, part of them stated that poker rooms were not authorized to operate due to players’ handling of cards and chips. They also said poker room operations would be re-examined based on changes in the CDC’s and PA Department of Health’s guidance.

Online Poker Room Bonus

On June 9, Rivers Casino Pittsburgh was the first to welcome back visitors. When asked when poker rooms would return, PGCB Director of Communication Doug Harbach said poker rooms present a different type of challenge since people are sitting close together in a room. He said at the time:

“The casinos want to walk before they run and make sure they are getting the venue open and then move on to opening up other areas once they know the protocols are working well.”

PokerStars, the state’s lone online poker site, has posted healthy numbers in PA, but players are still pining for in-person play.

Harbach gave this update to PlayPennsylvania in late August about poker rooms in Pennsylvania:

“There has been no alteration to the casino reopening protocols released by the Gaming Control Board in May in which poker rooms were not authorized to operate. At the same time, this guideline can be reexamined based on health experts’ guidance. Should casinos wish to explore reopening a casino room, it would need to provide plans to do so safely, which would be reviewed by the board on a case-by-case basis.”

Poker is back in New Jersey, too

New Jersey also had a long poker pause. The Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa reopened its poker room, the largest in the state, on Oct. 21. The room is operating with 30 socially distanced tables. It’s about a third of the room’s 85 tables when operating at full capacity.

The Bellagio in Las Vegas opened its poker room in June. Nevada state guidelines mandated five-handed play in rooms without dividers or plexiglass partitions. However, the Bellagio’s request for six-handed poker games with partitions was approved by the Nevada Gaming Control Board.

Other poker rooms in Nevada have also reopened with virus protocols in place.

More online poker operators coming to PA

PokerStars arrived in Pennsylvania in November 2019 and has been the state’s only operator for 11 months. Partypoker was rumored to be coming in the early fall, but like most party plans in 2020, it hasn’t happened.

Last week, the PGCB approved Caesars‘ online poker partner 888 Holdings for an interactive gaming manufacturer license. 888 Poker was the No. 1 poker website in the country last year. It has a self-branded poker platform, and its software powers World Series of Poker (WSOP) online and mobile sites.

It seems only a matter of time before both partypoker and WSOP.com make their way to PA.

Health and safety at PA casinos

Here are a few things you should know in case you have not been to a casino since they reopened. Per the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board, all casinos in the state must follow the COVID-19 Casino Reopening Protocols, which detail the minimum safety and health-related requirements that are mandatory before reopening.

Casinos may also choose to have additional measures, such as temperature checks at the entrance.

Key points to remember are:

• Casinos can reopen at 50% capacity. (Rivers Casino Philadelphia is open at 25%.)
• Employees and guests must wear masks.
• There must be markings on the floor to promote social distancing.
• Enhanced cleaning is required throughout the facility.

In addition, there is a current pause on smoking at casinos, no drink service on the gaming floor and no sitting at the bar.

Be sure to check back often as we continue to post updates on PA poker room reopenings here.

The World’s Best Bonuses And Poker Room Reviews All In One Place

You’re here because you are seeking the best advice you can get on the best poker rooms to try out and to play online poker at, preferably using the best poker signup bonuses. While there are many websites which will try their best to do that for you, almost all of them lack the knowledge and experience to do it properly. I’ve been successfully reviewing and recommending poker rooms on the internet for over 10 years.

For casinos and that sort of sites, I would like to recommend another site, which is www.gamblingsites.co and is definitely worth visiting if poker is not really your thing.

All of my knowledge is based upon first-hand experience which can only be gained by playing at all of the poker rooms out there. It’s not just about your own experiences though, you also need to be in touch with the experiences of many others to get a real feel about how people tend to do at given online poker sites. I’ve referred literally tens of thousands of poker players over the years to various poker rooms and have gotten a lot of feedback from them as well. So PokerBonusCode.net is here to make all of this knowledge and experience available to you as well.

There’s A Big Difference In Quality Between Poker Sites

There are some good poker sites out there to play online poker at, and there are also some which you’re better off staying away from. So without the proper direction, many players make mistakes here, and many end up busting out needlessly over and over again. At best, these mistakes will cost you a lot of money, and may even end up having you fail completely as a poker player where you end up quitting altogether. I do not want to see this happen to you, and I know that you share the same feeling.

You won’t see any reviews on PokerBonusCode.net of the poker sites that are not worthy. I could write reviews of these sites but to be honest my time as valuable and I won’t waste either my time or yours on this. Each and every poker room that I review has my full recommendation as at least a place that you should consider trying out.

The biggest thing for me is that regardless of whatever signup bonus a certain poker site may be willing to pay you, that won’t do you any good if the place is sketchy and it’s too hard to get a payout, or if the players there are tough to beat and you’ll lose your money and the bonus money as well in all likelihood, or various other factors that would make even trying out certain online poker sites a bad idea. So the ones I’ve chosen for you are all of the sufficient quality to earn my recommendation. There are hundreds of poker sites online and you’ll see that I’ve selected a very few which meet my high standards. I may add more reviews in the future but I will never compromise my ideals and I’m sure you don’t want me to either.

Ease Of Competition Is Actually The Most Important Thing Here

What I really want you to understand when it comes to choosing poker rooms to play at is the most important thing isn’t the signup bonus, it’s how easy it is to succeed at the tables. I can tell you that most online players do not play at the easiest sites to win at. That’s actually fortunate because a lot of these players are above and sometimes well above average in skill and we’d prefer that they stay away from these lesser-known gems. For various reasons that is indeed the case.

Maybe it’s the slick marketing of a given poker site that they’ve fallen for, maybe it’s the fact they think they need to play at the biggest poker sites around regardless of anything else, maybe it’s because they feel the need to play 16 tables at the same poker site at the same time, or whatever. I don’t fall for these traps with my own play and if you will simply follow me I will lead you away from these pitfalls that most players make and direct you towards where the best and easiest action actually takes place.

Getting Paid To Try Out Poker Rooms In 2021 Is Plenty Sweet As Well

Poker Room Bonuses

Poker bonuses are just that, a bonus, for trying out a poker room where you haven’t played before. Provided that the poker rooms that you do try out are of high quality, this is a fabulous way to build up your bankroll, where you can add thousands of dollars very easily to it. This only matters if the poker sites you try out are the easiest ones to make money at though, but when you combine these two powerful factors, which you’ll be doing as you follow my recommendations, this has the potential to really catapult your potential for success. I’ve also arranged for the best bonuses out there at my preferred sites and I will provide you with all the instructions you need to collect them.

What you don’t want to do though is to fall into the trap that many players find themselves in, which is to think that you need to look to get married to a site before you’ve really checked out what else is out there. I’ve found that there is a fair bit of variation among the preferences of players, and some will end up choosing one particular site as their favorite, while others may choose other poker sites.

Provided that you are sticking to the quality sites that I am recommending, having the experience of trying out several of them is definitely of benefit to you above and beyond the extra money that you will get paid for taking this approach. Therefore, I recommend that all readers bookmark this site and look to return for more loot once they have had the opportunity to try one out.
