All tables have automatic shufflers. The tables are a bit worn and the chairs are of average condition. The staff is more than adequate dealing the mostly limit games that are spread in the room.

What We like about Palace Station
It offers some low-limit poker games, but nothing that makes them stand out.
What We do not like about Palace Station
The Palace Station poker room is rather plain and boring. The games are micro limits compared to most other Las Vegas poker rooms. Unless you live nearby or are staying at the Palace Station hotel, there is little reason to play poker there.
