I absolutely enjoyed my first time playing at Hawaiian Gardens Casino today. They are run by a bunch of tiganas from Romania which I kind of think is cool but you just have to be sure to be careful when you walk through the doors of “The Gardens”. I hate that feeling and Hawaiian Gardens Casino is known for that. One low class side note is that the floorman who sat me down, once he saw I was winning started trying to catch my eye and I got the feeling he was trying to get me to give him a tip as if he had anything to do with my play. I played on the $2-$3 100-200 NLHE and it was a juic … y game. It’s more reminiscent to the $20 buy in NLHE they used to have and everyone knows what a shit show that was. They play with $1 chips now which totally sucks. Don’t bother playing the $1-$2 NLHE unless you hate your money. That being said, apart from the clusterfuck of a parking lot, the renovation came out sweet. I have a long history with Hawaiian Gardens Casino, not all of it positive.
