Waiting on a long time to play poker on a Saturday. Tracks run down

Adore this place. Dealers are really cool. Fun to win money of course. The only reason I dont go more often and that I didnt give 5 stars is the women dealers/employees. Some of them are really catty and make you feel very unwelcomed at times But, wolves dont lose sleep over the opinions of sheep.

Dealers were nice polite! Just did not like playing with the house. Had I pad counting your bets. They always seem to win more then 50 percent of time. They also look worn out over tired.Not ran well no drinks on the house for playing at table. If I did win seemed like no place to cash out. Traped!

Fun, funny and friendly. I usually dont gamble. But, a friend brought me here and offered to pay for a bet on my behalf. Of course my pup won. But, he wouldnt let me cash it in. They had live dog racing at the time. You can imagine my friends frustration seeing me, and amateur win when they, the experienced gamblers, lost it all. So, we had to use my winnings to pay for our group to continue betting on subsequent races throughout the evening. It was so funny.

Bad service in poker room. Waited for a table change with my name on list. Guy walked in and I let floor know before he sat down my name on list for that particular table and Nick ignored me. He let guy get a hand and Im out. I drive 3 hours to get here ! What a bad move by management !

No live racing anymore. Simulcast only. Poker room that is pretty nice with hold em, 3 card, Pai how and ultimate Texas holdem. I remember this place in its hey day...sad to see it reduced to what it is. Could be brought back to its glory, but would take too much I think. If smart, owners would get some big tourneys in and help revitalize it.

Worst poker room in the history of poker rooms. I could go on for days about my bad experiences at this room. Today was the day after not going there for about 3 months that I decided I’ll never go again and I suggest you do the same. I’ve been a regular at this room for 10 years and today I was treated so bad by management that I just had to walk out. Was picked up from the big o game for taking a break within the rules of the poker room and was told directly by manager that she would not make it right. She wouldn’t even check the tape at first to see if I was being honest which of course I was. It’s amazing to me how much people refuse to do the right thing these days. This is my first ever google review and it’s sad that it has to be a negative one for a place that I have spent so much of my time at. I drive an hour to get to the room on time to secure a seat at this game and get kicked out incorrectly and was told I had to wait. The only person that stuck up for me was a very nice long time dealer and friend Brian. He felt bad for me I could tell, he fought for me and I really appreciate that. But it hurts when everyone is against you because they are regulars and friends and their loyalty lies with them. But where I’m from right is right and it’s so disappointing that most don’t think that way anymore.

Went there for the poker game. Lots of retired locals that sit and grind here. There are also a few table games that are nice poker games as well.Drinks are reasonable too.The place looks really time down, but if you just want to play cards and dont care what it looks like..... This is your place.To win money at the poker table, you need to be prepared to sit and grind with the locals.

It was alright but needs more. Sad to see the puppies are not running as anymore. Instead you have to watch on television. if thats how they gonna do it for now on I suggest bigger screen. The snack bar is best place to hang out in my opinion. Snack bar and the employees who run it gets 5 stars!

Love to watch the dogs run or play in there poker tournaments and if you want to make a bet on Thorabreed Horse Racing. This is where you go and do it at. Perfect place to take someone on a first date on a Friday or Saturday night!

While you can no longer watch the puppies run in person (WIN for Animal Rights) the Property has been transformed into ancillary areas of gambling.Daily Live Tournaments and Promotions keep things pretty lively around here. Even if youre not much of a Gambler, the People Watching is above average!

Review №36

The facilities are nice and fairly clean despite the age of the track. The employees are very kind and willing to explain how to operate the betting system. The dog races are fun to watch and cheap to bet on. $40 will get you through all ten races and have a chance to win decently.

Review №40

In response to Chriss review, no greyhounds are raced every day of the week. That is closely regulated by Florida and is absolutely false. 2 days per week max is what a greyhound can race. Friendly staff and greyhounds in good physical condition. I dont gamble in casinos, so I really cant rate that.

The dealers and staff here are exceptional. The games are fun and have high winning odds in favor of the player. Very clean. Looks sketchy outside but once youre inside everything is wonderful. They have security patrolling on the outside. Safe location.

Staff is nice and helpful! They have inside and outside viewing areas. Full bar with food. The races are fairly quick and have at least 10, depending on the night there might even be more! Its even a fun evening for older school age children (about 7+). Fun time for sure!!!

Review №46

Decent card room featuring some of the worst poker players Ive ever seen. Action is loose and frequently fast, but higher stakes games only run at peak times.For tourneys, I rate then 2 of 5 stars, as they include dealer toke in the buy-in and the house cut is absurd. Only $37 of a $60 buy-in goes into the prize pool, so I would recommend avoiding playing them unless you win an entry. Higher buy-in events are more reasonable, percentage-wise.

This place is so depressing. The track itself looks decent, but everything else looks dated and run down. Food is low quality, but what can you expect from a Greyhound Track? (Heard this place might close after Amendment 13 is put into effect. Good riddance.)

Worst poker room I have ever been to. There is no money. 1-2 is the highest gam. most people buy in fo $40. You will win 1 out of 9 hands because cards and bets do not matter if no one has any money and the entire table calls every hand.

STAY AWAYI went there with my husband while on vacation in Pensacola beach . This was the worst place I have ever played poker in. How wind creek casino allows this place to stay open under its name is unbelievable. A couple of the dealers were nice, but they were a few that was very rude. My husband said a curse word and they almost threw him off the table. About 5 mins later a regular there began swearing. I counted at least 6 times in a min he said the F word. We ask the dealer why this was permitted he said he comes here all the time and that is just the way he is then he said if we had a problem we can talk to the floor or leave. Obviously they cater toward regulars. Then this other lady dealers comes to the table, she is gossiping so much with the players everyone is constantly saying we all checked, next card, it is over. It was so annoying. Like others has said all the staff looks so depressed, certainly an indication of the management. Interacting with the others players were just as sad. What a miserable experience. It really just ruined our whole vacation and we even won 140 dollars.

Review №85

Friendly staff and good rewards for poker players. The only complaint I have is that when other players get upset and or nasty about either losing a hand or the way someone else plays its not addressed in a fashion that deters it from happening again and again. Sore losers and even sore winners are unpleasant to say the least.

Not worth the time!!If you live in this area and want to play poker dont ruin your day by going here. Drive right by this place and go to Biloxi, Ms or to Ebro, FL. Both places have great, well ran poker rooms that are fun to be in. Its worth the drive people!This place smells. Its dirty and looks like a school gym with carpet. Most people who play here cant really afford the $60 buy in. Tables are filled with broke, grumpy, gamblers trying to get lucky on you, very few poker players frequent here.Beverage services is good most the time but, not very friendly. There are times you cant get a drink to save your life but, its rare. I cant comment on the food because I would never eat here.There are a few very good dealers suprisingly, I dont know why they stay. There are a few dealers, as well, that hate their own life and yours. Some how they manage to keep there jobs even though they cant do them well at all. Aggravating, when you just want to play poker and enjoy yourself.Last time I was there, I had a dealer that has been there for years. He couldnt deal 5 hands an hour on his best day. Hes rude usually and has horrible customer service skills but, management has kept him around because they suck as well, obviously. Im sure this guy has run off more than just me with his bad attitude but, I had enough of him. I told him he was the worst dealer Id ever seen, all too true, and the manager asked me to leave. No problem I replied, and I left knowing Ill never return.Im sorry I ever gave them a dime of profit to an establishment thats so ungrateful and undeserving of my business. Like I said, Other poker rooms are so much better managed and worth the drive.
