NEW YORK CITY POKER RUN
JUNE 17, 2006

The New York City Poker Run was held on a bright sunny day in June and we were very pleased to have Kurt Berger bring his 35 foot Cigarette DRY MARTINI to compete on the Hudson River. Extreme Boats Magazine Offshore Editor Ron Polli was the driver and Kurt throttled the boat on the run.	DRY MARTINI, a 35 foot Cigarette runs out to the start, with a 38 foot Cigarette, TOP GUN. The 35 was the basis for all the larger Cigarettes that were stretched in length, but retained an 8 foot beam. You can see the classic lines on both the older and newer boats that have become the standard of design for fast boats.
When the Kiekhaefer engines cranked up, people that have been around all types of fast boats took notice. Many said that they hadn't heard that type of exhaust sound before. The old boats had an exhaust with a presence. When we raced in Key West out of the old submarine base, the concrete piers would vibrate when all the boats started up for the beginning of a race.	The old style compasses that were used for navigation can be clearly seen behind the windscreen. GPS was an unknown factor in 1974. International racing rules required that a lifeline be on the forward deck in case a crew member needed to go up there. The switches for shifting fuel flow from the forward fuel tanks to the rear tanks can be seen on the dash.
Our on land display was provided by HORBA member, Dave Bennette, with the old INFERNO. This boat is the first 30 foot Sutphen. This design totally dominated the production class racers in the 70's.	INFERNO, now called NOTORIOUS, raced in the Sports class of APBA. It was throttled by Gene Whipp and owned by Stan Pike of Connecticut. The boat is being completely restored and is awaiting new engines.

Poker players in upstate New York have more choices of where to play, with four commercial casinos opening since late 2016 to join four tribal casinos offering live games.

Legal poker rooms and full-fledged casino gaming haven’t cracked the New York City metro market yet, but players looking for a Hold’em or Omaha game have a variety of options elsewhere in the state.

A state law allowing commercial casinos targeted areas that needed an economic boost, says Dave Urie, poker room manager at the $1.2 billion Resorts World Catskills, which had a grand opening in May 2018 in Monticello. Other commercial casinos are in Schenectady, Waterloo, and Nichols.

Tribal casinos with poker rooms are at Turning Stone in Verona, Seneca Niagara in Niagara Falls, Seneca Allegany in Salamanca, and Akwesasne in Hogansburg, which is so close to the Canadian border that some slot machines accept Canadian currency.

Competition for players has picked up as players get more choices.

“We’re still growing our room and brand,” says Dave Grubb of the poker room at Rivers Hotel and Casino. “There’s a big poker community in the capital region.”

For example, to counter the August grand opening of MGM Springfield in Massachusetts, about 100 miles away, his room will offer an hourly $1,000 high-hand bonus for six days.

All the casino poker rooms in New York are smoke-free. New York law requires commercial casinos – Tioga Downs, del Lago, Rivers and Resorts World Catskills – to be smoke-free throughout. Tribal casinos are allowed to have smoking areas inside the buildings.

All offer daily or weekly tournaments and NLHE; all except the five-table Akwesasne room also deal Omaha and occasionally a stud game when there’s enough interest.

Five rooms are listed on the Bravo phone app: Turning Stone, Resorts World, Rivers, Tioga Downs and Seneca Niagara. Del Lago uses the InTurn app by Bally Technologies.

Turning Stone was the first legal casino in the state, opening in 1993. Before that, underground poker games were so well- known that they were an integral part of the plot for the 1998 movie “Rounders,” starring Matt Damon and Edward Norton.

For an excellent history of New York’s poker evolution – from the “Goulash Joints” of the 1960s to the growth of private card clubs in the 1980s to the state’s role in the Black Friday crackdown of online sites in 2011 – see PlayNY.

Here is a look at casino-based poker rooms in New York, ranked by number of tables.
