The Taj offers the second largest poker room in Atlantic City with 75 poker tables and another 14 tables in the tournament area. The Taj spreads all types of games including hold'em, stud and Omaha (wait times vary; weekends can be 15 min+) and run at least two tournaments daily with a nice structure; see the schedule above for details.
Recent upgrades include new chips (finally!), forty 42-inch plasma TVs and a poker comp program which pays as follows:
- $1/hr for 3/6 & 5/10
- $2/hr for 10/20 & 15/30
- $3/hr for 20/40
- $4/hr for 30/60 and higher
Each Sep-Oct, the Taj hosts the United States Poker Championship; it's a series of events that culminates in a $10,000 buy-in event that typically draws almost 300 top players.
The Taj poker room is reporting undergoing upgrades including the installation of automatic shuffling machines at each table and an automated brush board. Look for those in early 2007.
