I go to UCSB so this is my local room. Play it all the time. Probably too much for my own good. It's a nice room. They spread a good NL game, plays pretty similar to the games down in LA where I'm from. Don't worry, I'm not breaking any laws playing in LA -- I'm of age!

Good atmosphere, a bit crowded with 12 tables pretty jammed into the room. Auto card shufflers keep the games moving, lots of TV's, good service. The players are mostly regulars with plenty of donks. I like!

Mostly knowledgable and friendly. Good group of people.

No alcohol. Bad thing!

Not great, especially on weekends it can get to be 2 hours or more for the no limit game if you get there after 9.

All the regular bad beat jackpots and they have a cool promotion where they add money to pots if your table is selected.

Nice room, nothing great, but it's very well kept, professional. The tables and chairs are in good condition. I do recommend the room to friends.

As I stated above, the tables are all newish with auto shufflers, but it's not spacious at all and there is no waiting area. It is somewhat cramped to be honest.

Dealers are all very competent. Nothing great, nothing terrible.

The waitresses are okay, they could come around a bit more. No beer or other drinks, but this doesn't matter to me. Probably does effect the competition. Get them drunk and they play bad. Unfortunately that can't happen here!

Wait time is about average. They use an old fashioned board to keep track of lists.

I was impressed. It's not huge or overly fancy, but it has good NL action, friendly dealers and management and everything about the room was very professional. The casino and hotel are really nice too. It was unexpected to find Vegas type action in the heart of Santa Barbara wine country. Pretty cool!

The tables and chairs were all new and nice. All tables had auto shufflers. TV's were on all the walls. They didn't have an electronic waiting list, but everything was orderly. They did have pages that they gave out while you waiting, however, they ran out when I asked for one.

Everyone was very professional and knowledgeable.

If you call a drink water, soda or water... yes, it's easy. However, no liquor is served in the casino; so the answer is 'YES' it's very difficult to get a drink -- actually impossible. I ate in a nice cafe near the poker room and the food was basic, but very tasty. The prices were very reasonable and the food came really fast. I ordered a burger and it was very good. I was told that they serve food at the tables, and a few players recommended their breakfasts. I played until 2:30am, so I did think about ordering breakfast!

They use a blackboard type list and the one woman manning the list was professional, but it was very crowded and it took at least two hours on a Sat night to get seated at a NL table.

They have all kinds of comps. They offer vouchers for free chips with every tournament entry, they have good bad beat jackpots and they also run a little raffle every half hour whereby they randomly pick a few tables and add money to the next pot at that table.

I like this room a lot. I play lots of online at the 3-6 no limit games and when I play live I like similar games. They have a few tables going at the 2-5 level and there is always plenty of action. The room has about a dozen tables, but it does get crowded. Nothing fancy is here, but they do have good table, shuffling machines and everything else you would expect to find in a modern room.

Nothing great, but just what you would expect in a poker room. I would like to see more tables. There also wasn't any higher no limit games when I have played and I do like to play in deeper stack games sometimes. None here.

No complaints. There was a big argument at my table when one guy accused two other players for soft-playing against each other. The manager came over and quickly put an end to it. It was actually pretty funny.

No drinks are served.

Expect to wait about 30 to 60 minutes for a table.
