Greektown to open new poker room

30 October 2009

DETROIT, Michigan -- (PRESS RELEASE) -- Greektown Casino-Hotel announces the opening of a brand new poker room, located in the space formerly occupied by The Alley Grille. The new poker room opens November 23 and features 13 tables in a private, cozy and comfortable setting. The room is non-smoking and offers a bar and lounge area. The new poker area at Greektown also features a separate room with a table for private games.

"We're committed to giving our guests what they want, and that's exactly what we are doing for our poker players. The space is a natural fit for a poker room, giving players a private area away from the casino floor, a convenient bar and lounge, and more seats and tables than any other Detroit casino poker room," said Amanda Totaro, VP Marketing at Greektown. "Poker players can also get excited about new tournaments they'll only be able to find at Greektown. We have always been known as a great place to play poker and we're reinforcing that with our new poker room."

Greektown's new poker room will utilize a pager and digital screen system to conveniently alert players when their seat is ready. The room will also offer players a variety of traditional and several unique tournaments, a wall of fame, finger food, and free collectible tournament chips. Upcoming poker tournaments include "The Road to the Big Game," a "No Limit Free Roll Tournament" and a "Bounty Hunter Bonus."

Located at 555 E. Lafayette Boulevard in Detroit's Greektown Entertainment District, Greektown Casino-Hotel opened on Nov. 10, 2000. Readers of The Detroit News and Detroit Free Press have voted Greektown Casino- Hotel Michigan's and Detroit's "Best Casino" numerous times. Greektown Casino-Hotel offers such amenities as their all-new International Buffet, the Eclipz Lounge and a VIP lounge for players. In addition to being named "Best Casino" by readers of The News and Free Press, Greektown Casino-Hotel also placed first in other categories in The News' reader survey, including "Best Slots," "Best Wait Staff Outfits," "Best Craps Tables," "Best Blackjack Tables," "Best High Rollers Area," "Best Casino Restaurant," and "Best Casino Entertainment." Greektown Casino-Hotel opened its new 400-room hotel tower February 2009. For reservations and group events, call 877-GCH-5554 or visit greektowncasino.com.
