On the floor and around it

  • Slots and VLTs: the floor holds 785 slot machines and 32 VLTs. A VLT is a video lottery terminal, an electronic game machine, and the VLT lounge is next to the slot cashier.
  • Live tables: there are 32 live-action table games, meaning a dealer runs each game in person. The list includes Blackjack, Double Down Madness, Craps, Roulette, a Texas Hold'em table game, Ruyi Baccarat and EZ Baccarat.
  • Electronic table games are also part of the mix. These are table games played on a screen rather than with a dealer.
  • High-limit rooms: a high limit slot room has 53 machines, and high limit simply means larger bets than the main floor. The Fortune Room covers high-limit slots and tables, with Blackjack, a Hold'em table game, EZ Baccarat, Commission Baccarat and Ruyi Baccarat.
  • Hotel and shows: the hotel has 188 guest rooms, including 28 suites. The Chrome Showroom hosts concerts, dance parties, comedy shows and martial arts events. This guide does not list racing or off-track betting here.
  • Loyalty cards: the casino uses Winner's Edge, the provincial slot loyalty program, with points earned on carded play. Carded play means playing with your card in the machine; hotel stays earn through the hotel's own Loyalty Reward Program.
