Here in North Portland you don’t have to head to Vegas for some fast action at the tables. Every Monday night Mock Crest Tavern hosts free games of Texas Hold ‘em with the help of Portland’s own Mad Poker!
Mad Poker is a free local poker league and a favorite among gamblers across Portland. The weekly tournaments run between thours long, depending upon the number of players, with sign-ups beginning thirty minutes prior to game time. The games run until the last player is left and a winner is declared.
Dealers have come to know our players well, but they always welcome new players, too. Mad Poker provides a gimmick free, fair play game every time with friendly and competitive play for players of all levels of experience.
You’ll find a list of their rules and the legal stipulations on their website, along with a page where players get special recognition for phenomenal hands. There are also details about Mad Poker’s many special events, including bus trips to casinos and their “Randomonium Games,” like Crazy Pineapple, River of Blood, Deuces Wild, Joker Poker, Suicide King and Bed Knob Queen Wilds, and Omaha. The dealers will help you out along the way as you learn new games.
Mad Poker’s dealers cut the deck at 7pm every Monday night at Mock Crest Tavern. And, if you can’t make it to Mock for poker you can visit our two other bars—Greeley Avenue Bar & Grill hosts Mad Poker on Tuesdays and the Yukon Tavern sets up it’s tables in Southeast Portland on Thursdays.
Hope to see you there!
