I did a load of the tourist things yesterday, 'Niagra's Fury', 'The Journey Behind the Falls' and the 'Whirlpool Aerocar'. All were worth doing and kept me away from the craps table. The falls are something everyone should see in their lifetime and I'm glad I've worked hard enough to be able to come here.
The poker at the Fallsview is a bit different to your typical Vegas casino ;
1. There are no tournaments, just no limit cash games (2/5, 5/5 and 5/10).
2. You have to bring chips to the table by grabbing some from the cage, which is over the other side of the casino. I suppose I may be tempted to play some slots on the way back..
3. It's a $6 per half hour table charge which I think is cheaper than a rake as long as you drag a few pots here and there.
4. The dealer wasn't too happy giving me change for my $100 chips even though he had a load of $5 chips in his rack. He was even less happy when I didn't tip him.
In the hour I played when I woke up at 4am I had one hand of note. I limped with pocket tens as the table was tight. A load of players also limped and the flop came 4 4 6, two hearts. A loose player bet $20 and I called, hoping he had a flush draw. Just us two see the turn which is a scary looking King of hearts. He checked and I checked behind not wanting to be check raised. Another 4 came on the river and he checked, which makes me think he may have a low flush or two unpaired high cards for squadoush. I bet $35 and he called then mucked when he saw my boat. I think he may have made a curiosity call with high cards rather than a flush. I don't know really as I'm a fish.
I only played one hour as I have a date with the 'Maid of the Mist' and the 'Niagara Rapids Walk'. I hope the Maid has a bog on it as it's time for a greasy breakfast!
