The Caesars Palace poker room has moved back to its original location on the casino floor after a brief absence, reopening with a refreshed setup and fewer tables. The venue closed in August 2024 when the resort needed room for a high-limit slot salon. A temporary poker facility opened in May 2025 in the Appian Way retail promenade, near the statue of David.
As of November 2025, the Caesars Palace poker room is once again located adjacent to the sportsbook. The renovated layout includes 16 tables, two fewer than before the closure. The design prioritizes more space and comfort, with ergonomic chairs and increased walking room between tables.
To sweeten the deal, Caesars has raised the hourly comp rate for live-action cash games: players now earn $3 per hour in casino credits (up from $2). Cash games continue alongside a schedule of daily tournaments. For example, tables run $100 buy-in events with multiple start times, each guaranteeing a $1,000 prize pool and offering a $50 add-on.
The rake structure remains unchanged: for a $1/$3 No-Limit Hold ’Em game, the house collects 10 % of the pot up to a maximum of $6; for $2/$5 and $5/$5 games, rake drops to 5 % with the same cap. Mixed games, pot-limit Omaha, and limit games carry a 10 % rake.
This reopening reflects a modest but meaningful investment by Caesars in its poker offering. The room may no longer be a major revenue driver, but it remains a valued amenity and destination for poker players. For now, the Caesars Palace poker room is back home.
