South Point Poker Room Number
It’s looking more like three poker rooms on the Las Vegas Strip won’t be back following what were originally thought to be temporary closures due to the pandemic.
If any Las Vegas poker room attempts to deal four-handed poker, I feel like these are the big favorites to do it: South Point has the biggest chance. The Orleans is a close second place. Several Station Casinos poker rooms dealt into the last day. Red Rock Resort was the last to close before South Point. It spread seven-handed games and has.
The three former poker rooms were at Mirage, Mandalay Bay and Excalibur.
- The poker room was expanded to 30 tables and with all brand new tables, chairs and electronics, meaning you will find plenty of room around the tables and all new furniture to find comfort in. The South Point enforces a strict non-smoking policy to conform to Nevada health and safety laws. The design of the poker room includes carpets.
- The South Point casino offers all the fun, action and excitement of Las Vegas style gaming. Offering all the popular Las Vegas games at your pleasure. The 80,000 Sq ft. South Point Casino floor offers you a chance to enjoy over 2,300 slots, and over 60 table games including blackjack, craps, and roulette. A poker room, and a 600-seat bingo room.
According to Cardschat.com, MGM Resorts will be giving away left over jackpot money, signaling these poker rooms are shuttered for good.
When Mirage reopened, we shared photos of the former poker room now decked out as a “Non-Smoking Slots” area. It didn’t look temporary.
Fun fact: They can’t guarantee the slots aren’t smoking when we’re playing.
Before the pandemic, Las Vegas had 31-ish poker rooms. Now, there are 21-ish.
Poker rooms aren’t a huge moneymaker for casinos, they’re more of an amenity, so it’s possible some rooms are being closed under the cover of COVID-19.
The three closed poker rooms in question have money (leftover “bad beat” jackpots) they’re required to give away, in this case via something called a “freeroll tournament.” It basically means they’re free to enter. Learn more.
“Freeroll” should not be confused with “pre-roll.” Hey, things can get confusing now that marijuana is legal in Las Vegas.
The freeroll tournaments to give away jackpot money from the three closed poker rooms are taking place at MGM Grand. The two remaining tournaments are Nov. 17 and Dec. 1, 2020. (The first one sold out.)
That time we learned what an “aquarium” is in poker.
We aren’t a poker person, but sort of wrote this entire post just to share the Nov. 17 tournament will give away Mirage’s $69,804 jackpot cash. We repeat, about $69,000. Because we are 14, apparently.
Poker players (and poker room employees) have definitely been going through a rough patch in 2020 as the number of poker rooms has continued to shrink, but die-hards are finding new places to play and some predict poker rooms could rebound once the pandemic is behind us.
The good news about shrinkage is it’s often temporary.
Not that we’d know anything about that. At all.

The Orleans Details
The award-winning Orleans Poker Room offers roughly 35 tables of poker action around the clock. Located near The Strip on Tropicana Avenue, The Orleans prides itself on interior design. You will feel like a truly honored guest as you sit in one of their super-soft adjustable padded leather seats. The décor is refreshingly minimalist, with textured square-tiled carpets and ceilings replacing the garish colors to be found in many other poker rooms. The high points of the perimeter walls are inset with large screens, which give up-to-the-minute updates on waiting lists, tournaments, and upcoming Orleans poker promos.
