The new Presque Isle Downs and Casino poker room features nine tables in a state-of-the-art glass enclosed smoke free environment. The poker room offers live poker games in a wide range of stakes, from $3-6 Limit, $1-3 No Limit to the highest limits customers care to play.

The poker room also features table side dining and cocktail service.
“We offer a great poker experience here,” said Fred Buro, Presque Isle Downs and Casino President and VP and Chief Marketing Officer of parent company MTR Gaming Group Inc. “This is another opportunity for us to showcase events that take place at Presque Isle Downs and Casino.”

As part of the casino’s effort to offer this exciting experience, legendary poker player Chris Moneymaker was recently named the official Poker Ambassador for Presque Isle Downs and Casino and will frequent the casino periodically to participate in tournaments and other special events.
