Formerly, the "Gardena Club". One of Gardena's first licensed and longest lasting card rooms, it opened with 20 tables. It changed its name to the "New Gardena Club" in 1981. More so than other Gardena clubs, during its final decade it catered to a mostly senior citizen clientele. See Gardena Poker Clubs: A High Stakes History (2017) Max Votolato
