Yep

The Excelsior has hold 'em tournaments. I heard the Stellaris was thinking of starting up some poker, but have no idea how that has gone.

It's the casino at the Holiday Inn, at the end of the strip on Palm Beach (right before the Marriotts).

I stayed at the Radisson first week of May 07 for 6 days
Played poker extensively. (going back in 4 weeks)

Rad had good cash games, expensive rake, and infrequent tourneys.
They tried to get a 60 or $80 buy in NL each night, but often only had
4-6 sign up.

Both Poker rooms didnt open till 7pm last year, dont know if this changed.
Played primarily at Rad since I stayed there, but went to Holiday inn 2 nights.
Similar # of tables, stakes, & rake.

Rake @ limit cash games were 10% to $6 plus $2 bad beat- tot $8
Rake @ 2/5 NL &5/5NL was 5% to $10. Rake was $10 most pots
