Casino Del Sol Tucson Poker Room 4,0/5 8063 reviews
Small, local poker rooms inevitably have some problems, but I have been playing here for two years and find it to be mostly a well run and fun room.

The Casino Del Sol located in Tucson Arizona has 161,000 square feet of casino gambling space, 1,300 slots, table games, poker, seven restaurants, two bars and a hotel with spa. The new $100 million dollar, ten story resort hotel opened November 2011 with 215 rooms and a full service spa. Casino Del Sol is one of the premier destinations for entertainment in all the Southwest, from comedy, to rock and roll, to Tejano. AVA Amphitheater is the finest outdoor amphitheater in Arizona and has played host to some of the world’s greatest acts. While there are 4 Indian casinos in Tucson the best one is Casino del Sol. Patterned after the Paris Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas it is bright, clean and the home of several fine restaurants. Not much action in the poker room - slot machines were tight but good variety of slots. Date of experience: May 2019.
For one thing, it runs the best 2/5 (and sometimes 5/10) game in the state. It has a timed rake of $7 per half hour so no drop on any hands and that includes being eligible for the jackpot and promotions. It runs 4-5 times a week on average. The betting cap is $680 rather than $500 at Talking Stick. There is usually good to great action. Anyone saying otherwise is simply wrong. There is always the standard types of 1/2, 1/3 games as well as 4/8 and sometimes 6/12 mix.
They offer a wide variety of promotions, some of which reward everyone equally and some of which reward those who put in the most hours. This seems like a fair balance and during football season has caused consistent increases in business and action.
I think the dealers here are excellent. I have played many years in many casinos. They do an excellent job. They are human, so an occasional mistake it made, but at no higher rate than any other casino I have been in.

My main complaint is the food and beverage service. There are some excellent servers working very hard but some of them really struggle and its clear that at times the room is severely understaffed.
