Bally's Black Hawk Casino anteriormente Golden Gates Casino

Bally's Black Hawk, formerly Golden Gates, has the biggest poker room in Colorado, with 22 tables of action offered 24 hours most days. Based in the Colorado gambling hotspot of Black Hawk, the establishment describes its poker section as a “Poker Parlour.”

Bally's Black Hawk is based upon a cottage or log-cabin design. Exposed stonework and wood is seen all around this clean and bright room. The 9-handed tables are set with black leather seats on top of light brown wave-patterned carpet. With large television screens mounted all around the room, players are able to watch sports and keep track of tournament information from their chairs.

Comps can be accumulated here and exchanged for many meal options. Tableside food delivery is one of the options given to users of this service — giving access to the full range of food available in the casino’s bars, cafes, and restaurants. On a daily basis, players have access to no-limit hold’em, limit hold’em, and pot-limit Omaha cash games in addition to split-pot games when there is enough interest. Bally’s Poker Parlour is also the venue of several major tournament series. Their signature tournament series is the Colorado Poker Championship, which boasts $500,000+ in prize pool guarantees. The MSPT also stops here 2 times a year, typically in January and July. Daily poker tournaments also take place three to four times per day at a more affordable level for recreational players and low-stakes grinders.
