two times in one tournament. freeze out and allowed the player to rebuy. hour later…dealer completely missed the split pot, and despite complaints, was not able to make things right. pretty shady place.
Room is very poor, unless you like feeling your in a basement of someone’s house. Dealers are dressed in street clothes. Tables, and chairs are generic as you can get. Not very proffesional either, I witnessed RUSS (the owner) Yell at a older dealer to get his attention…. You mise well have it in a bowling alley like everyone else because it has a very trashy feel…If I could have rated it negative stars I would have. But look at how many people rated it, that pretty much sums it up I hope this helps others.
This place is a joke. Has a reputation for fights, dealers that are mouthy, and owner calls other charity rooms in the area and threatens them. AVOID at all costs….tournaments are run like hell. I would not advise playin here unless your desperate….I would go to a bingo hall before I would visit here again.

Dollar king by far has the most action and best cash games in the area. They have the sickest (loose and deep stacked) players at their $1/$2 games. They may not be the best run or most organized room but they are fair to their players and always try and fix mistakes amicably. They are improving everyday and I would not play cash games anywhere else in Toledo/S.michigan. They have 2 tables going by 5-5:30 daily and usually get 1-2 more tables through out the night so you have little wait time to get a seat.
how come there isn’t a phone number posted? I live in Monroe, and i don’t want to drive all the way down there if they don’t have a game going! please help!
@Mike..The reason for no phone number being listed is I could not find one for the room. After some searching today I found a phone number and have updated the listing. The phone number I found is 734-224-7766, hope this helps…
Have played at every room in a 50 mile radius and dollar king by far has the best cash action and best tournament payouts . The floor managers have changed in the last 6 months and it couldn’t be better . Highly reccomend this room .
Probably the most action you can get unless you go to the 3 detroit casinos..real laid back, tournaments everyday at 7 oclock 1 dollar pop and chips and complimentary snacks while you play or wait for a seat. Real great place to play!
Some of the dealers definitely need some true training because obviously these are just locals that have played cards from time to time and THINK they know everything inside and out (for example, one dealer MUCKED a players cards that were sitting right in front of them AFTER they called a preflop raise…anyone who deals that pays even half the amount attention required to be a dealer should NEVER make this mistake…also this same dealer flipped out on his co-dealers because he couldn’t do simple math to split a 3-way, 2 all-in pot…the players started to tell him how to do it, he got frustrated, then other dealers at the place tried to explain to him what to do and he was pretty much in tears).
Outside of a couple dealers, the place is pretty enjoyable, real laid back, and until the casino goes up in Rossford, it’s pretty much the only place to go. I give 3 1/2 stars.
just a response to brandons comment
there is a room right down the road Players Poker Room that sells out of tournaments nightly and gets 3 to 4 cash games going
Like others have said, players are ready and willing to put large stacks of money in the middle. Lots of gamble.
Plain and simple deal is the best action in the area .floor people do a good job and do their best to be fair and make everyone comfortable and the tournaments pay out well .
People need to remember this isn’t a casino but the action is just as good .
This room is the biggest joke around. Trailer trash wouldn’t even begin to describe the people who play and run it. The management are theives and break every rule the state has for charity gaming. Nightly fights, gun toting and oh yes lets not forget the people who get robbed when they walk outside. You can get action anywhere…why in the hell would you go there and risk your life because you put a bad beat on one of their thugs. The dealers are the worst and can even figure out how to split a simple math pot. The floor managers don’t even have a concept of the rules of poker. Good luck if you go there since the room has their own prop players waiting for a sucker to walk in.
DOLLAR KING IS THE PLACE TO GO TO GET ROBBED & MUGGED. TRY PLAYERS JUST A LITTLE NORTH ON THE SAME STREET. PROFESSIONAL DEALERS (IF THEY’RE NOT THEY DON’T WORK AT PLAYERS) DICE IS RUNNING THE ROOM AGAIN!!! HE & CHAD WERE GONE BUT ARE BACK. THEY PLAY BY THE LOTTERY RULES ALWAYS.
I now deal at Dollar King and to say you going to get robbed and mugged is not true. Let’s squash the rumors. The room gets a bad rap because of the bar next door.
I aprecaite the fact that everyone has a apinon on Dollar King Poker room, that is way wars have been fought for centries, so that everyone can speak there minds.
Now, I will speak mine… It is a 40-mile one wat trip for me, to play at Dollar King,so I usally get one or two others go long. We have always called ahead, for reserve seating at the tournment games, and Russ, has always acomadated us. And he has alwasy took the time to speak to us when we have arrived. [That is what respectful people do.]
I have cashed in on quite afew of the tournments, which means that I have walked out with cash in pocket. I have never seen any of the ‘negitve’ things that these other people are discribing. There was a dispute at one of the tournment I was in, and the ‘floor man’, came to the table, explained the rule, and seatled the dispute with-in a few seconds.[That seems pretty organized to me. I can’t help but wonder, if maybe these other people making these negitive comments, are working for one of the other Poker Rooms?
My bottom line is this…I have met ALOT of great people at Dollar King, thats “staff and players both”! There is no more problems their, than there is anywhere else in this world!! Keep up the good work Russ and staff, and for the players there, see you at the final table! Gary G. Fremont, Ohio
I am a senior citizen that has played 3 times a week or more at the Dollar King for some time now. I feel safe playing there. I have never had a problem in the card room or coming and going in the parking lot. The other players have always treated me with respect. The dealers and management has always made me feel welcome. Do the dealers make mistakes? Sure from time to time as we all make mistakes. Do they do their best to correct them? They sure do! If you are going there to play cards you will enjoy the other players, dealers and management. I can assure, you will have a good experience. The quality of the card players are much better here than at most charity houses.
I must admit I recently re-visited this poker room and things have changed for the better. The room has been upgraded as well as staff. I now frequent this establishment. Don’t get me wrong, there are still problems and the lack of security is a problem. But its no worse than going to some of the bars.
Some of the good comments are true and people do like playing there for the action. As for the stuff people say negative about it, most of it has been true. There was one shooting outside, no one got hurt. The CHARITY did get robbed walking out one night, and a few people have been robbed… But its not a everyday thing otherwise the room wouldn’t be open. Going to this place is like going to a bar, you never know what you are running into. They have one of the stupidist rules in the state, where if you show your cards to someone and there is more than 2 people in the hand your cards are mucked cash or tournament no warnings.
