Pennsylvania Poker Information
Pennsylvania’s poker players are fortunate to have the choice between around 10 poker rooms across the state. Eastern Pennsylvania is the main poker hotspot, although western residents are within range of good games at Presque Isle Downs and Rivers Casino. Philadelphia poker tournament experts are mainly attracted Parx in nearby Bensalem, which operates some of the most well-attended daily tourneys in the northeast, as well as its Big Stax series events. Harrah’s Philadelphia Poker Room also gets its share of the regular action, and hosts the WSOP Circuit every April. The same venue is the home of the Philadelphia Poker Room, which offers more affordable events in the colder months of the year. Cash-game players in Philadelphia have the advantage of relaxed rules on minimum buy-ins in many poker rooms, meaning that recreational players are more likely to juice up the action.

Are we missing something?
Lightning Poker, a manufacturer of electronic automated poker tables, today announced it has received independent verification of its product and that Lightning Tables will be soon found at Turning Stone Casino in Verona, N.Y.
Gaming Laboratories International certified the table, which doesn't need a dealer, cards, or chips to play poker. A screen is sunk in the middle of the table that shows the board and action, and smaller touch-screens sit in front of every player.
Competitor PokerTek already installed several PokerPro tables in casinos and cruise ships around the country. This will be Lightning Poker's first installation and it will happen sometime in November.
Tournament poker mainstay Brian Haveson is Lightning Poker's CEO and he had this to say about the certification:
'We are pleased to have received independent certification of the Lightning Poker gaming system by GLI, allowing us to move forward rapidly with our marketing efforts. In addition, we are excited to work with Turning Stone Casino to introduce the Lightning Poker product. We look forward to a successful launch at Turning Stone and expect to announce more installations in the near future.'
Laboratories International certified the Lightning Poker gaming system under all standards necessary for installation in casinos including GLI-24 Electronic Table Game system standards, GLI-11 & 12 Gaming Devices and Progressive Gaming Devices in Casinos, GLI-13 On-Line Monitoring and Control Systems, and GLI-16 Cashless Systems in Casinos.
