SPOKANE, Wash. - Northern Quest Casino has become the first casino in the Inland Northwest to offer high-limit poker games, casino officials announced Tuesday.
"To serious poker players, it means for the first time they'll be allowed to play Hold'em with a betting limit of up to $500 per bet with three raises," said Janet Chavez, Poker Room Supervisor.
Prior to March 28, when the high-limit tables were introduced, the largest bet allowed was just $40 with three raises. Northern Quest will be offering three different High Limit poker games, Chavez said. They are:
* $1/$2 blind, buy-in $100-$200, betting $2- $200
* $3/$5 blind, Buy in $100-$300, betting $5-$300
* $5/$10 blind, buy in $300-$500, betting $10-$500
Northern Quest has two poker tables dedicated exclusively to the high limit games. Play will start daily at 10 a.m.
Northern Quest also offers no-limit tournaments seven days a week and the casino expects to attract a large number of players who only compete in high-limit tournaments.
"The addition of high-limit poker is a direct result of our ‘you asked, we listened' campaign," Chavez explains. "Many of our guests have been asking for high-limit poker, and we're happy to now be offering these games."
Any 2+2ers in the northwest? The new higher limit games have been going for nearly a month now. Has anyone played there or know any more about the room?
