I've always liked the Trop. Yes it's an older property at this point. The poker room is a shadow of its former self. Remember the pink chip limit hold 'em game and the high limit room?
I miss them! I actually used to play a game there from the distant past that's been totally forgotten. I think it was called slud or stud or something...
But the nice thing about the Trop is the proximity of the rooms to the amenities. If you stay on a lower floor you can get from your room to the casino or the restaurants quickly and without walking for 3 miles.
Hopefully it will survive the economic downturn, I think it's already in receivership of some sort.
