The Chukchanis Gold Resort and Casino is a very nice resort casino with a mountain lodge feel located about 40 miles north of Fresno.  There's a hotel/spa, nice restaurants and a 56,000 square foot casino all built in 2003.

The casino website states there's an all new 3 Peak Poker Room.  The room (really just an area separated from the casino floor by a 3-4 foot partition wall) has 12 tables and has a nice feel to it but only limited activity.  At 2p on a recent Sunday, there were two ring games running (a 2/4 and a 3/6 limit game) and 2-3 tables for a small tournament.  The waitlist is a manual signup.  In addition to it's regular games, the poker room offers an ongoing tournament for a WPT seat; see the items of interest above for details.

Chukchansi allows smoking throughout the casino (although not in the poker area) and serves alcohol.  Food is available tableside.
