Poker Room Features
Once a solid, albeit small, poker room, the Palms poker room had obviously been struggling. It was in its second iteration at the 13-year old casino off the Las Vegas Strip, having been redesigned in spring 2012. The Palms is a place for people who want to experience Las Vegas on the top shelf. With almost 100,000 square feet of gaming space for slots and tables, a sports and race book, and two separate poker rooms anyone with the chic finesse to enter the doors can get their game on 24/7.

Palms Details
Palms closed its poker room in June, 2014
The Palms Casino on West Flamingo Road, Las Vegas, offers a small yet varied selection of poker action to tourists and local players. Now running under the ownership of Cantor Gaming, the Palms poker room is a very modern development, apparently modeled on a “Crucible Theatre” design. This spacious spherical room contains around 10 cherry red poker tables and accompanying seats in its center. The middle of the room is marked by a similarly bright red carpet. The outer wall is mounted with its own complete circle of television screens, which stream more than 20 different television channels for poker players. To access the poker room, navigate your way through to the restrooms — the tables are not far from the sportsbook.
The poker play at The Palms is predominately comprised of no-limit and limit hold’em cash games up to a height of $4-$8. Other games and higher stakes do run occasionally, although this is entirely dependent upon there being a sufficient level of player interest expressed to the management. The maximum rake in all cash games is capped at $3. Players at The Palms earn comps at the rate of $1 per hour. These are tracked by the Club Palms Card. Along with chips and straight cash, comps are a possible method of payment for tableside food delivery and the other services you would expect from a Las Vegas poker room.
The Palms rewards its poker players with several popular poker room promotions, A holiday cash giveaway is the current major promo. This random drawing pays players between $100 and $1,000 every 2 hours. All players who win a hand with something better than a straight are given a ticket entry for this promotion. There are also NFL promos, which usually revolve around a splash pot cash giveaway whenever the home team scores.

Poker in the Silver State represents around one percent of overall gaming revenues. Poker is dwarfed in comparison to slot machines, which accounted for more than 60 percent of the $11.14 billion in statewide gaming revenue last year. Sports betting and poker are comparable.
The closing of the Palms poker room follows the high-profile closings of such rooms at M Resort and Circus Circus. Those rooms closed in August and September, respectively. Other poker room closings in recent years include Gold Coast, Tuscany and Fitzgerald’s (re-branded as “The D”).
