Does Alberta have a discord channel? Can someone please send a link?


When you consider that it's 7$ cdn rake, which is like $5.50 usd, you realize that some people are just whiners. You could give some people rake free poker with free food and they'd complain that the food isn't good or the dealers aren't fast.

Converting the currency also makes the game smaller too then if you are going to do that, $5.5 rake on a $2.20 big blind game +promo is quite high especially when they also rake preflop, The complaints are fair imo.

Please come to Ontario and play here then! $20 (10%) rake plus $1 drop and to top it off, $3 coffee and tea, $5 water bottles!

I moved from Alberta anyways, I would not be grinding live poker if I still lived there though, that is for sure


Why doesn't the Grey Eagle Casino have DeepStacks Poker Tour anymore?

How's the action there compared to Woodbine/Niagara? Splashy oil money or mostly coffee drinking nits? Does 2/5 or 5/10 run consistently? Or is it a struggle to even get a 2/5 going?


I'm moving to NW Calgary soon, which casino do you recommend for 1-3, 2-5 games on a regular basis near me? I haven't been to any of them yet. I was thinking Deerfoot would be my best option.

NW has nothing near you unless you're near Panorama/Huntington Hills and then Ace Airport is close. Everything else requires a drive and to downtown or the other side of the city.

Because Grey Eagle hates poker. Once Lee died, there was no internal ally. The General Manager has hated poker since his Ontario days... unless he's retired now.
