FAQ about Rivers Casino & Entertainment Centre
The croupier's famous "No more bets, please". After the game has started, it is no longer possible to bet.
If a player does not have enough capital at the table to bring any bets during the current coup, he must declare himself “all-in” with his remaining capital if he wants to stay in the game and claim the pot. You cannot bring extra money to the table during a hand. If the other players continue to bid, a "sidepot" is formed. The player concerned remains in the game but can only win the pot that was created before the sidepot was formed.
With this basic stake, the player acquires the authorization to take part in the game. In Texas Hold'em, this additional stake in addition to the blinds is only used in tournaments.
The casino food was the worst let-down of the six days. The fact that the calamari was a sloppy breaded ring suggests that they were understaffed.
There are many gambling machines and tables, but the Boomtown Casino as a whole needs a makeover. Plan a stroll through as a diversion before the main event of your evening entertainment.
From the moment we got there, the staff was very helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend this casino to anyone who lives in this area.
It's relatively close to everywhere, it only takes a short drive, and the location is very beautiful. The casino is nice, non-smoke, clean and the staff is helpful.
The staff is very friendly. The waiter in the restaurant is a bit slow. The casino is nicely done and fully renovated. Good choice of games.
