Trip Report: Gold Goast Hotel & Casino - Las Vegas, NV

I was at the Gold Coast during the WSOP Main Event. The Rio was sold out for months, and the Gold Coast is a 5 minute walk across the parking lot. For the price, the Gold Coast Hotel is a bargain. Recently upgraded rooms with a nice sized plasma TV for about $30 per night, back in early July.

The poker room was also recently renovated. I never went to the old one, so I can't compare the two. The new one is very small, only about 6 or 7 tables, but it is very clean and functions well.

The Gold Coast has a Noon Tournament that often sells out hours in advance, as they only have room for 40 players.

$35 entry fee for $2,500 in chips. There was also a $1,000 bonus for $5 extra, and an extra $500 in chips if you sign up before 10:00 a.m. (The Earlybird Bonus)

Small tournament, but I encountered some pretty seasoned players. I saw a cash game..think it was 1/2 NL.


Grading:

Poker Room: B. Small but comfy. No thrills, but all the basics are there. Cocktail waitresses seemed to come by for drink orders quite often.

Dealers/Staff: B. Found some good dealers. Seemed to be quite a few locals there.

Strength of Players: 7/10. Since the WSOP was going on next door, there were a lot of poker players in town. Players might have been stronger there, then they would be at other times of the year. So that "7" ranking might be a bit inflated.

Overall, a nice small, clean poker room. Nothing fancy, but no complaints. If you go there for a tournament, plan on getting there between 9:30 - 10:00 for the 12:00 tournament, or you risk getting shut out.
