Considering the neighborhood that it’s in, I never gave this place much thought, especially in terms of a place to have breakfast. But seeing that Sacramento doesn’t have too many good breakfast joints, I figured I’d give them a try.  Walking in, I expected to find a smoke filled room, with lots of tables with [...]

Capitol is a decent card room, much better than many of the other places in Sacramento.  They have a great Sunday tournament ($60 buy-in) that usually draws around 60-80 people.  The dealers are nice and knowledgeable.  The floor managers are very helpful and they are all consistent with the rules.
