    All Table Games Operations will be closed, including the Poker Room
    Retail & Coat Check will be closed
    The Getaway Restaurant will be closed
    The Express Bar will be open with limited menu options
  • Strike at woodbine! So no one to bring drinks to the tables? This is why everything is electronic. The union has very little bargaining power here. Lolz.
