BC Casino poker or home games, May 7th-8th weekend

Going to be in Vancouver that weekend with nothing much to do and am hoping to play some poker. I know about the River Rock casino in Richmond but is there likely to be any other poker action within driving distance that weekend? I am interested in tourney action or low limit cash games. I know that several casinos in Vegas play a 1-3 spread game with single $1. blinds which is my favorite. Anything like that in the Vancouver area? Are there any other casino's near Vancouver? What spreads do they actually do at River Rock?

  • River Rock spreads limit games from 2/4 to 20/40 just about any time, and up to 50/100 if there's enough demand (Friday and Saturday nights it's not too uncommon to see 40/80 and/or 50/100). Generally there's at least one one no-limit table with 3/6 blinds running. I've never seen a spread limit game there, nor heard of one at any of the other local casinos.

    AFAIK, the only other public cardroom in the Vancouver area that spreads 2/4 games is the Holiday Inn on Broadway. The other two casinos in Vancouver itself (Edgewater and the Mandarin) have 4/8 as their lowest limit, last I heard. I understand there's one opening in Langley this month, not sure if they'll offer anything lower than 4/8.
