I know this is "Okie Poker", but I feel compelled to write occasionally about my second home in Colorado.
I love Cripple Creek. Old mining town of around 1000 people way up in the Rockies...Oh! They also have 20 or so casinos! The problem has always been that the maximum bet allowed on any game was $5. Thats all changing come July 2nd.
Here's the notice from Cripple Creek's Chamber website:
"With the passing of a resolution to expand gambling in the state of Colorado, Cripple Creek gaming will see some exciting changes this summer. As of July 2009, the stakes will rise in Colorado casinos from the current maximum bet limit of $5, to the new limit of $100. This is for slots, blackjack and poker as well as new games coming to Cripple Creek: craps and roulette. Cripple Creek casinos will also see extended hours, meaning more fun and more chances to win for you and your friends! Anticipation is mounting as craps and roulette will be added to the Cripple Creek, Colorado gaming lineup."
Looks like I may be spending a lot more time in the Mountains this Summer...At least I hope so!
If you are in need of a job and think the casino industry may be for you, the casinos in Cripple Creek are expected to add 500+ positions before July 2nd. Many are taking applications now. A dealer makes an average of $40K/year there now. With the increased stakes coming, the tips should even be better and drive that number on up!
BTW, the Firelake Grand Casino in Shawnee, OK is having its 2009 Firelake Grand Poker Championship on March 7th beginning at noon. $50K guaranteed money for this event. Not sure of the buy-in...I seem to have misplaced my invite, and their website doesn't give the amount...sorry.
