Foxwoods Resort and Casino is located in Ledyard, Connecticut and is about a 1 1/2 hour drive from Hartford Connecticut, 2 hour drive from the New York border and 1/2 from the Rhode Island line. Foxwoods offers multiple hotels, casinos, a kids area, meeting areas, a unique shopping experience, spas, golf and more! In addition, Foxwoods has teamed up with MGM to expand the already 4.7 million sq ft. complex to include an additional hotel, restaurants and luxury shopping corridor.
Foxwoods used to be a great place to play poker many many years ago. I think they got less competition and get carried away. New management is a must have to bring back this place alive for poker. We are even seeing the first appearance of the series from the Foxwoods legend Sherwin 'The Fox' Agard who holds four major Foxwoods Poker titel. The chips are flying in the tournament area and we will be crowning our Foxwoods Poker Classic Seniors NLH in the late night hours.

The hotels on the property include the Grand Pequot Tower, the Grand Cedar Hotel and the Two Trees Inn. MGM will be added in the spring. The Grand Pequot Tower is a 4-star hotel (AAA) with over 1,000 rooms. The tranquil Grand Salon and Spa is also offered here at the Towers. The Grand Cedar Hotel sits on top of Rainmaker Square, the Theatre District, fine dining, shopping, an indoor pool, and fitness center. Rainmaker Square is the entrance to separate portals of one of the casinos. Both of these hotels offer excellent service and staff and could be compared to any Marriott (Pequot Tower) or Sheraton (Grand Cedar) hotel with indoor pools and all the amenities.
My favorite is the Two Trees Inn. Two Trees is located about 10 minutes away from the casinos. It is a tranquil, quieter hotel that serves individuals looking to ‘get-away' but still be able to go to the casino whenever they want. There is a large indoor pool, a sit down restaurant that serves breakfast, lunch and dinner and a very friendly and professional staff. Just walking in there makes me want to curl up by the ‘fire' with a good book. One word of advice, during busy times you should make a reservation at the restaurant or get there early to get a table.
As far as casinos goes it is one of the largest in the world (formally it was). There are over 380 tables with games ranging from blackjack and craps to paigow and Caribbean Stud Poker. There are over 7,000 slots including a 500 slot non-smoking area. The refurbished poker room features brand new penny and nickel slots.
Since the slots moved in, the no-smoking poker room has been moved to the lower level. Foxwoods is a charter member of the World Poker Tour. It hosts the World Poker Finals and the Foxwoods Poker Classic with its 114 tables. For the average player you will find Hold'em, Stud and others with very low to no-limit tables. There is a cafe with hot and coldofferings right next to the poker floor. Personally I liked when the poker room was upstairs (it was roomier) but the new area has a more intimate feel to it.
Wherever you are in the casino, the staff and dealers are unbelievably helpful and friendly and will make your stay wonderful.

Foxwoods Details
Foxwoods Resort & Casino is located in Mashantucket, Connecticut, on the Mashantucket Pequot Indian Reservation. The Foxwoods poker offering is the biggest on the East Coast, with 114 tables set between a sprawling poker room and separate tournament area. The action is continuous at Foxwoods, with the poker room open 24-7 every day of the year. Holdem strategy with 6 max players. As would be expected of a large-scale venue, Foxwoods caters to limit and no-limit hold'em players, plus Omaha and stud enthusiasts. If you are just starting out on a bankroll mission or looking for a fun game, you can always find a $1-$2 table. Higher bankrolled players need not look elsewhere either, as the poker room often answers demand for $100-$200 and $150-$300 limit cash games, as well as 5-10 no-limit and PLO.
Foxwoods is associated with the World Series of Poker, and hosts a WSOP Circuit event. The Foxwoods World Poker Finals maintains the pace of Connecticut's live event scene, pairing big buy-ins with good structures that have been praised by many visiting pros.
The Foxwoods poker room was recently relocated to the Rainmaker Casino. A poker room floor person will then assist you in finding a game, getting chips, and being seated. Alternatively, you can use the easy electronic seat-allocation system. Although the main room is free from overly fancy decorations, the eye is immediately drawn to the huge neon blue waves on the ceiling above the busy cash-game tables. The Native American origins of Foxwoods also shine through with traditional designs emblazoned on the room's supportive pillars and arches.
Visitors to Foxwoods should sign up to its Foxwoods Rewards card program. At the entry level, players have 'Wonder' status, which grants many unique benefits. Points can be exchanged for discounted gas at the Pequot Outpost or used to gain free stays at the Foxwoods Resort hotels. The longer you play, the more points you gain. Regulars quickly advance to Gold, Platinum and Diamond status to enjoy more super privileges.
Other Info:
54 cash game tables in main room; 60 tables in tournament area.
Phone-in list: 1 hour - 2/5 NL and up; 10/20 limit and up only.
