Harrah’s KC is technically a riverboat casino, meaning that visitors can enjoy calming views out across the water from the higher windows. In contrast to casinos that place their poker rooms behind the pit games, this location ensures that a good stream of gambling newcomers stumble in to feed the sharks. You just have to step through the door of the casino to find the poker games running adjacent to the upper entrance. The Harrah’s branch in North Kansas City has a well-designed poker room with more than a dozen tables of action.
