Harrah’s Cherokee Valley River opened on Wednesday its extended casino floor, part of its $275 million expansion project. The expanded floor spans 25,000 sq. ft. and features a selection of gaming options, including the new poker room, 300 more slot machines, eight additional table games, and a central casino bar with 22 seats.
“Players can now try their luck at one of the 300 new slot machines or eight additional table games,” the casino in a press release said. “Further enhancing its gaming lineup, the expansion also introduces the highly requested World Series of Poker – Poker Room.”
The casino says that the extended poker room “features a lavish design and upscale ambiance” where poker enthusiasts and casual players can enjoy a range of cash games with favorites like Three Card Poker and Texas Hold’em. The poker room is open Sunday through Thursday from 10:00 AM to 2:00 AM and Friday and Saturday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 AM.
“We are ecstatic to reach this milestone in our expansion process and unveil the expanded gaming floor, which represents the culmination of months of hard work and dedication both from our internal team members and general contractor, Robins & Morton,” said Lumpy Lambert, General Manager of Harrah’s Cherokee Valley River Casino & Hotel. “Every detail of the casino floor expansion was selected to ensure memorable experiences and we are confident that our new amenities and offerings will exceed our guests’ expectations.”
During the first six weeks of opening, the Harrah’s Cherokee Valley River poker room will only have cash games, with tournaments starting in July. There will be two weekly $80 no-limit hold’em tournaments, which will start at 7:00 PM on Monday and Thursday nights.
Besides the new poker room, guests can now visit Harrah’s Cherokee Valley River’s new 22-seat casino bar located on the expanded floor. Offering nine of the latest bar-top video games, eight beer taps, bar seating and lounge seating, the casino bar is open daily from 9:00am to 2:00am.
