Question by tyzekiel: How profitable are casino poker rooms? Do the casino’s compete with each other for poker traffic?
Just wondering if the casino’s are active about trying to draw a customer base to their poker rooms? I’m’ from washington and I know a lot of the local casino’s have shut down their poker rooms because they are not profitable enough. Cheers for any help.

Answer by Bob K
Years ago, casinos started eliminating poker room because they could make more per hour on a bank(s) of slots. Due to the current popularity, they have grown again and are considered a draw into the casino. However, they themselves are not big money makers and time will tell as the bottom line is scrutinized again.
