Century Casino & Hotel Edmonton Poker

The Poker Room and What You’ll Actually Find There

Our dedicated poker room came online in May 2016 as part of a CA$2 million refresh that reshaped a big slice of the property. Since then it has stayed a separate space on the floor, with 9 tables, an 18+ age requirement, and its own direct phone line so you can reach us without going through the main desk. The number to call if you want to check seats before driving down to Fort Road is +1 780-643-4099.

In that room we focus on two main poker formats. Ultimate Texas Hold’Em Poker with Progressive is a community-card game played against the house. You make standard bets against the dealer, and there is a progressive side wager that feeds into a jackpot that can build up to a meaningful amount over time. Four Card Poker plays quicker and is a bit more straightforward. Each player takes four cards, compares against the dealer’s hand and acts from there. Both games run as house-dealt table games rather than player-versus-player cash poker.

If you are specifically chasing live cash games or structured tournaments, the line-up can move around. Schedules, stakes and promos tend to shift with demand. Calling the poker room direct is still the most reliable way to check what is running at any particular time.

Hours and Getting Here

From Monday through Thursday our casino floor opens at 9:30 am and runs until 4:00 am. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday we move into 24-hour operation, so poker on the weekend does not have a set closing time. For players who like long sessions or late starts, not having a hard cut-off makes planning a lot easier.

You will find us at 13103 Fort Road, Edmonton, AB T5A 1C3. Underground heated parking is on-site and free, and you do not need to deal with tickets or validation. Just pull into the parkade, make your way up and you are already inside the property. The main switchboard number is +1 780-643-4000, while the poker room keeps the direct line at +1 780-643-4099.

One simple habit we usually recommend: when you are new to a casino, call ahead on a weekday afternoon if you can. Midweek daytime usually means staff have a little more room to answer specific questions about live tables, waiting lists, or what time different games tend to open, instead of trying to do it over Friday rush.

The Rest of the Gaming Floor

The poker room is one part of a larger casino floor that stretches out quite a bit. Around it you will see table games including Blackjack, Roulette, EZ Baccarat, Hand-Held Mini Baccarat, Four Card Poker, and Ultimate Texas Hold’Em Poker with Progressive. There are slot machines and VLTs spread across the floor, plus an off-track betting area tucked in for players who like to follow horse racing along with their table play.

For guests who prefer a bit more privacy and a quieter feel than the main pit, we have a high limit gaming room that functions like a private salon. That area went through the same 2016 renovation that introduced the poker room, along with the Shuffles gaming room. The off-track betting setup adds another format that not every Edmonton property runs, and it changes the rhythm of the floor a little.

Here is what you find on the main gaming level:

1. Slot machines and VLTs
2. Blackjack
3. Roulette
4. Four Card Poker
5. Ultimate Texas Hold’Em Poker with Progressive
6. EZ Baccarat
7. Hand-Held Mini Baccarat
8. Off-track betting

Finding the Poker Room When You Arrive

Getting from your car to the poker room is pretty direct. Drive to 13103 Fort Road and pull into the underground heated parking when you arrive. From the parking level, follow the signs to the main casino entrance. Once you are on the floor, walk toward the table games pit and you will see the poker room set off as its own section. If you are turned around at any point, floor staff will point you the right way in a second.

Make sure you bring valid government-issued ID that shows you are at least 18. Security checks this at entry, and poker staff may ask again if they need to confirm details. After you are inside, speak with a member of the floor team about open seats, the games currently running and any promos that might be linked to those tables. When you are ready, take a seat and buy in at the table that lines up with how you like to play.

If you prefer to know that a game is already live before you head out, give the room a call at +1 780-643-4099 during our operating hours.

Hotel, Dining, and Everything Else on the Property

Century Casino & Hotel Edmonton is more than a single room of tables. The property includes a small boutique hotel, several dining options, bars around the floor, a showroom and the on-site Yuk Yuk’s comedy club. That mix means you can build a full evening around a poker visit or make it part of an overnight stay if you are commuting in from another part of Alberta.

Booking a room on a Friday or Saturday and lining it up with poker sessions usually works well with our 24-hour weekend schedule. You can play late, head upstairs when you are done, and come back down without leaving the building. Gift cards that work across the property - gaming, hotel and food included - are available through cnty.com/edmonton. Yuk Yuk’s and the showroom keep a regular calendar of events, and the Century Casino Edmonton Facebook page at facebook.com/CenturyCasinoEdmonton is the quickest place to scan what is coming up before you lock in a night.

Century Casino Edmonton in the Local Poker Market

Edmonton has a few different spots where you can sit down for live poker, and players here do compare them. What we bring is a 9-table dedicated room with its own phone line, 24-hour access on weekends, free heated underground parking, and an entertainment complex wrapped around the gaming floor. Those details matter in practice when you decide where to play, especially if you drive in during the colder months.

Century Casino & Hotel Edmonton is owned and run by Century Casinos, Inc., which trades on NASDAQ under the ticker CNTY and is based in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Each Century-branded location sets up its own layout, mix of games and promos, so the way poker works here is specific to this property rather than a single template. For players based in north Edmonton or nearby areas who want steady access to live poker, we sit as a reliable option in that local market. Not the only room, but a solid one that keeps poker as a clear part of what we do.
