We have done this all round the world, Las Vegas (over 18 year period) Monte Carlo, casinos on east and west coasts of Canada, London and asia, we like to collect players cards.

We enjoy casinos as my sister and I are people watchers and enjoy a play, drink and good meal. There is also plenty for a significant other to do around Melbourne while you hit the felt.Īsked to leave and not come back for 12 hours as we had supposedly been there for 12 hours, totally incorrect as we had Christmas shopped in city, enjoyed Myers Christmas windows, Hopetoun tea rooms for afternoon tea and back to our hotel for a freshen up before heading back into casino after 6pm to find a place to eat and play a little more - all of which could be verified on phone gov.check ins. It's well-run and great for cash game players. Overall I would recommend Crown Melbourne as a must-see poker destination in Australia. Apart from the casino's rewards card, there are no bad beat jackpots or bonuses of any kind.
