Bay 101
San Jose, CA
Poker is the main draw
San Francisco Bay Area and Wine Country
San Jose has two big card rooms, Bay 101 and Casino M8trix, both on the north side of town near the airport. Bay 101 is the poker players' room, known for long waitlists, while M8trix is the flashier of the two, with a large floor of table games and a busy bar and cafe. Neither has slots, and both take a collection on every banked hand.
