The Lodge Poker Room

Overview

Part of Lodge Casino at Black Hawk

The Lodge Hotel  & Casino has one of the largest poker rooms in Colorado (18 tables) and is open from 8a-2a daily.  The semi-enclosed poker room is located on the mezzanine level of the casino--a great location that makes you feel like you're in the center of town when at the table.  Fortunately, there's not a lot of slot action around the room so players can concentrate on poker without lots of outside noise.

The room offers spread limit hold'em and Omaha (see details above), but, as of Feb 07, no tournaments (note:  the Lodge's sister casino, the Gilpin, is the local spot for daily tournaments).  The ring games played are divided pretty much equally across the 18 tables.  Although the room is popular, wait times are minimal, usually less than 10-15 minutes for the game you want.  The wait list is computerized but not posted on monitors; you'll need to listen for your name to be announced.

The tables and chairs are in nice shape and all the tables have auto-shufflers.   There are a variety of comps for regular players and player-funded jackpots that can get up to $150k or so.  Smoking is allowed in the room.
