Freddy's Club Casino in downtown Renton. A clean, attractive friendly place to lose money. Maybe you'll have better luck than I did. I'm not blaming the casino. I've gone back since, but only for dinner.

There is a casino/restaurant at the Cabela's exit (exit 111?) in Lacey. And I know if you go the other way and drive further south (to Yelm), there's a Indian Reservation with a casino called "Red Wind Casino". But I don't know if its any good.

I think the casino Inkpoe's referring to is the Hawk's Prairie Casino. They've got decent BBQ.

Hawk's Prairie Casino (the Yelm exit off I-5) has a really good poker room. Tourneys and live games. I haven't played since last year (out of the area) but tourneys could have 40 people in them. Thursday nights were big back when I played.

Red Wind Casino got rid of their poker room.

Roy- the other side of Yelm - Old General Store Steak House Saloon has tourney's on Wed- Sat and live game 2-10 afterwards with a small local crowd - low keyed. No2-4, 3-6 BS.
* Don't speed in this one horse town! You will get pulled over*

Head out on the 101 hiway to I am drawing blank on name.Another Indian Casino past Black Lake in Olympia has many tables and tourneys also. Including hotel.

There is a Bowling Alley in Lacey that also has poker games but every time I went in there the list was too long to wait for a seat. Usually looked like they only played one table.

Good luck!

Yes, Hawk's Prairie Casino.

We have a lot of Indian Casinos. If you're willing to go for a bit of a drive, go to Muckleshoot in Auburn. That's one of the bigger ones.

Muckleshoot is one of the biggest. Many limits and all hours play.

Not all Indian casinos have poker rooms. They have figured out that slots pay them more for the space. Quinalt out by Ocean Shores also has a small room.
