Your South Strip Poker Destenation (Luxor Poker Room Review)


Luxor recently moved their poker room closer to both the sports book and the self parking entrance. I think this will prove to be a good move on their part as the location of the room should provide the game with a few new players who wander in from the book, or bar. When these players do get there what they will find is tough 1-2 game made up of local grinders. Even though it is located on the strip, the game at the Luxor is a favorite of regulars. On most nights the room gets about 2-3 games, it helps that they also run small buy in tournaments throughout the day. If your staying on the South end of the strip, this is your place. The likely hood of getting a game going when you walk in is over %90. The Weekend action can be great as well as provide a nice view of the club - goers headed out to LAX. I do really like the staff here as they do a good job of informing you about promotions as well as schedules and structures of daily tournaments. Their daily tournament is a turbo, but it does include 20 minute blind levels which is a nice change of pace from some of the other daily’s . Luxor is also home to some of my favorite dealers, Francis and the guy that looks like John Fox. When provoked they can be pretty entertaining and they contain a wealth of knowledge about Vegas Poker History. They received a 5 from us on our Poker rating scale. Overall Luxor is probably one of the more under valued poker rooms in town. However when most people do visit what they get is a great game and amazing atmosphere.
