Washington Casinos
There are quite a few Washington casinos, gambling establishments, and bingo halls, and we’re here to help you find them. What are the casinos hours? What games do they offer? Is there a hotel available at the casino?
We’ll answer all of those questions for you and more!
For poker fans, there are card rooms smattered throughout the state of Washington, where Texas Holdem poker is played around the clock. Most card rooms in Washington, such as the New Phoenix Casino located in La Center Washington also offer a variety of table games, Like Blackjack, baccarat in some cases, and Pai Gow which is super popular in these casinos.
For the 18 year olds, Roulette is a definite favorite; however, although 18 is the legal age for the card rooms in Washington, they don’t all offer roulette wheels.
The utmost popular forms of gambling in Washington are Poker and Horse Races. Formerly, limit holdem was the most popular cash game in Washington, largely due to the fact that making a bet at a poker table in Washington larger than $40 wasn’t legal. However, a new law passed in July of 2009 that’s changed some of that, making some forms of No Limit holdem (or something like it) legal in Washington.
In a moment of lunacy, Washington changed that law, making the maximum bet $40, and the maximum bet.
According to the new Washington Poker law a player can bet $40 maximum (same as current rule) or they can go all-in for up to $500. This was Washington’s attempt at “No Limit” poker. .. err semi limit poker?
As a result, Casinos in Washington such as the Northern Quest Casino offer $20-40 limit, or spread games that allow all in bets up to $500.
So, that’s a lot like a CAP style game you’ll find at Full Tilt Poker online. It’s not quite all in, but it’s as close as you’re going to get in Washington, aside from poker tournaments and tribal casinos of course, tribal casinos in Washington are not affected by these betting limits on poker games.
Other popular forms of gambling in Washington include the Washington Lottery, where pull tabs are the ticket. There’s no Video Poker in Washington like there is in Oregon, but there are pull tabs, in fact, in most Washington Casinos, a machine much like a slot or video poker machine (because slots and video poker aren’t legal) will actually display your pull tab on the screen for you, pull the tabs, and spit it out.
Washington also offers several Bingo Halls, and Horse Racing. In fact, Walla Walla is well known world-wide for both their onions (Sold annually at Burgerville!) and for the Walla Walla Race Track.
