Poker room rate

A poker room rate is a discount offered on hotel room rates to players who agree to play a certain number of hours of poker in the poker room of the hotel. A poker room rate is a common feature of casino/hotels in Las Vegas, and occasionally is found at hotels in other cities.

The details of the offer vary from hotel to hotel. Clearly, a casino must have an attached or associated hotel in order to offer a discount. Discounts can range from minimal ($10 off per room or so) to large (20% or more), and the number of hours required to play also varies from casino to casino.

For example, at the Excalibur, a player who wishes to earn a poker room rate simply checks in with the brush whenever they enter or leave the room, and if the player plays at least five hours a day in the Excalibur poker room, they get a discounted rate on their Excalibur room that amounts to around $25 off per night. Other properties have other requirements and other discounts.
