For years the Wynn Poker Room located in Las Vegas has been popular among locals as well as tourists. Now, in May, the 25-table poker room will expand and therefore move to a new location.<\/p>\n
The poker room will reopen on the 26Th<\/sup> of May, at the new location, near the Encore Beach Club and Encore Players Club.
