Washington Poker Information
Although online poker isn’t an option for poker grinders in Washington, this is only a minor inconvenience. Just take a look at the Poker Atlas map of rooms in the state — the peppering of pins tells the whole story. The majority of rooms in Washington operate on Native American Indian reservations, which enforce some restrictions in poker cash games. In many venues, maximum single bets are capped at $40, with a limit of three raises up to a total pot value of $500. Making the best of these restrictions, Washington is a great place to sharpen your pot-limit and limit hold’em skills.
