Casino Le Pharaon, Lyon

I spoke no French, they spoke very little English, but it all worked out fine. They begin playing poker at 9PM until 4AM. The cheapest cash game is 4 / 8 EURO, No Limit. They run tournaments on Tue. and Thu. Although a small casino, it is laid out very well, and the staff is most friendly. There is a small cafe for dining, and their pasta was fine. The other dishes I saw looked good as well. They have a bar in the Poker Room, so a drink is close by. I was only able to play on a Mon. night, but ended up doing very well. There was no tiping to the dealers as they take 4% of each hand for the house. From where I stayed in Lyon, it was a nice two mile walk to the casino, but I took a cab back to the hotel around 3AM.
