The room's cash games are No Limit Hold'em, Pot Limit Omaha and Dealer's Choice. Sunday opens with a No Limit Hold'em tournament at 12 pm. A 1-3 No Limit Hold'em cash game follows at 3 pm. On Monday and Thursday, the 4 pm game is Dealer's Choice. That format mixes No Limit Hold'em, Pineapple, Crazy Pineapple and Pot Limit Omaha.

Tuesday brings 1-3 No Limit Hold'em at 4 pm. Wednesday holds the second tournament of the week, No Limit Hold'em at 6 pm. Friday and Saturday run two cash games from 4 pm: 2-5 No Limit Hold'em and 5-5 Pot Limit Omaha.

Only start times are posted. The room does not publish closing hours, so the end of a session is not part of the schedule.
