Pocket aces held over the felt beside a short stack of chips.
On the felt

Five formats. Every night we are open.

Cash games, around the clock. No schedule to wait for. If a seat is free, you sit.

What runs, and who it is for.

No Limit Hold'em

The game everyone came for, and the one the room is built around. Deepest tables, most seats, most hours. If you have played anywhere, you have played this.

Our Hold'em games seat up to nine players. Minimum buy-in Rs 10,000.

Suits: everyone. Difficulty: the easiest to start, the hardest to finish.

PLO

Pot-Limit Omaha, and a variance curve that surprises people exactly once. Bigger pots, faster swings, and a great deal more action than the same stakes at Hold'em.

Minimum buy-in Rs 10,000.

Suits: players who find Hold'em slow. Difficulty: deceptively high. Bring more than you think you need.

PLO 5

Five cards. Everything true of PLO, amplified. Hands that would win a Hold'em pot outright are routinely second best here.

Minimum buy-in Rs 10,000.

Suits: the regulars. Difficulty: not the game to learn the room on.

Round of Each (ROE)

The formats rotate, one orbit at a time: a round of Hold'em, then a round of Omaha, and on around the table. The most honest test in the building of whether someone is a poker player or a Hold'em player.

NLH ROE from Rs 10,000.

Suits: the students of the game. Difficulty: the room's connoisseur's game.

Bomb Pots

Everybody in, blind, no preflop action, and a flop that arrives before anyone has had an opinion. We run one after every single round, so you never wait long for the next.

It is the loudest the room gets. It is also, reliably, the moment a first-timer stops being nervous.

Suits: everybody, briefly. Difficulty: irrelevant, which is the point.

Stakes and buy-ins.

Published, so you know what to bring before you cross the city.

Cash games. Buy-ins in rupees.
Format Minimum buy-in
No Limit Hold'em Rs 10,000
PLO Rs 10,000
PLO 5 Rs 10,000
Round of Each (ROE) Rs 10,000

Five tables, seating up to nine players each. In Round of Each, a bomb pot runs after every round. Games open and break with demand: if the game you want is not running, tell the floor and most nights we can start one.

Ten thousand is the minimum at every table. There is no published maximum, and blind levels move with the table. Message the floor and we will tell you exactly what is running.

The rake.

Five per cent of the pot. No room enjoys publishing what it takes. We would rather you knew it before you sat down than worked it out afterwards.

That is the whole of it. There is no entry fee, no time charge, no seat fee and no additional deduction at cash-out. Tipping the dealer is entirely at your discretion and never solicited.

The rules that come up most.

The complete rulebook is published in full. These are the ten that get asked at the table.

  • Verbal is binding.Say it and you have done it, in turn, at the table.
  • One chip is a call.Unless you declare a raise first.
  • No string bets.One motion, or announce the amount.
  • Cards speak.The dealer reads the winning hand. Miscalling does not cost you the pot.
  • Protect your hand.An unprotected hand mucked by the dealer is dead. to confirm
  • Exposed cards.house procedure
  • English at the table.So the whole table can follow the action. if enforced
  • One player to a hand.No advice, no discussion, no exceptions, in or out of the pot.
  • Phones off the felt.exact policy
  • Call “floor” at any time.Everything stops, the hand is preserved, the floor decides.

Read the complete house rules

Every one of those rules is only as good as the room enforcing it.

Live floor oversight, certified dealers, published procedure and instant payouts. That part is written down too.

Questions about the games

Both work. Reserving guarantees a seat at the stake you want, particularly Friday and Saturday. Walk in and we will find you something, or a chair at the bar while you wait.

Usually short and never opaque. The floor will tell you the real number, and you can wait at the bar with a drink rather than standing by a door.

Ask the floor. Seat changes are honoured in order of request.

Then do not learn it at the highest stake in the room on a Saturday. Start on Hold'em, watch a PLO table for an orbit, and ask the floor when you want to move.

Not currently. We run cash games five formats deep, every night we are open. When that changes, it will be announced in the Journal and to the list.

A chip caught in the air above the felt, cards face down beneath it.

Pick a game. We will keep the seat.
