Bigger money games in Edmonton

Does anyone know where/when I can go to find a game bigger that $1/2 NL at local casinos? I'd be looking at even getting into a bigger PL game, Hold 'Em specifically (can't tolerate DC). I'm newer to the city from B.C. Also would be interested to know what type of players these bigger games have.

    Starting tonight.....will have big games until Monday @ Yellowhead, as they have a big tourney this weekend. 2-5 for sure, PL will only be D.C. (Pineapple, Crazy, Holdem & PLO.......mainly PLO).

    Otherwise, weekends are your only guarentee.......weekdays in Edmonton are hit and miss......best chance at RiverCree & Argyll.


    Some good PLO games this weekend @ Yellowhead......5-10 PLO (D.C.) with over 100 G's on the table.
  • Now if this the Argyll casino...then yeah - killer action.

    I was down $1500 in about 4 orbits. Played for 10 hours though and cashed out $3100.

    3rd hand - 4 way all in. Some limping then...
    CO - Raises
    D - Re-raises
    SB - Call
    BB(me) - shoves. They all call except the limpers.

    Show down. $1700 pot.

    CO - 88
    D - AcTh
    SB - AKss
    Me - AdAh

    Now that's action.

    Nice....where's that action when I get A's..........nh sir.
  • Definately lots of action, argyll and the head.
  • 2 - 5 Pot Limit Dealers Choice Saturday night @ 7 pm......you can call in and put your name on a seat at the Yellowhead. Has been going pretty steady for a month or so.

    Unlimited buy-in....has been a profitable game for me when I can make it. Must not let variance catch up with me.
  • I am gonna be in Edmonton Sat night with a buddy looking for some action:D Yellowhead the best?

    What's your preferred game?
  • Just your basic NLHE up to 1/2 or tourney.
  • If tourney:

    Casino (Argyl) Edmonton - 3pm Saturday: $120.00 buy-in.....70-100 players....9000 chips, 20 minute blinds (I would recomend this one).

    Yellowhead - 4pm Saturday: $60 Buy-in.....6000 chips, 15 minute blinds....70-100 players

    Cash will be good on Saturday wherever you go for 1-2 NLHE....$50.00 min, $500.00 max everywhere I think. If you're a smoker, River Cree is nice....if not, Yellerhead or Argyll will certainly do as well.
  • I don't think I will be in town in time for the tourney, though it sounds right up my alley.

    Thanks for the info, Yellowhead sounds like the place..don't like smoke..lol..
