Poker at Fallsview: Two Properties, One Trip
Our poker offer in Niagara Falls sits across two linked properties in Ontario, and it helps to know how they work together before you show up. On the main casino floor at Fallsview Casino Resort you will find house-banked poker-style table games. For live, player-versus-player cash games where you sit across from other players, you will need to head over to the dedicated poker room at Casino Niagara, our sister site about a 10-minute walk away.
Both casinos use the same Momentum loyalty program. Points you earn at one property are added to the same account and can be used at the other. One shared customer support line covers both locations at 1-877-376-9722. Entry into any gaming area at either property is restricted to guests 19 and older, which is the standard minimum age for regulated casinos in Ontario.
The poker room at Casino Niagara is located on Level 2. It operates 18 tables every day, opening at noon and closing at 3:45 am, and spreads Texas Hold’em in a mix of lower and higher limit cash games. For guests staying with us at Fallsview, this sets up a simple routine: use our resort for your hotel stay, dining, and shows, then take the short walk to Casino Niagara when you are ready for live poker action.

Poker-Style Table Games on Our Main Floor
On the Fallsview casino floor, we spread more than 110 table games in total, and a significant portion of those are poker-variant games where you play against the house. These tables are not live cash games in the traditional sense. They use set rules, specific dealer qualification standards, fixed pay tables and optional side bets. Because of that structure, the rhythm and feel differ from sitting down in a live poker room.
The poker-style games available on our floor include Three Card Poker, Ultimate Texas Hold’em, Mississippi Stud, Caribbean Stud, Pai Gow Poker, Pai Gow Tiles, and Crazy 4 Poker.
Crazy 4 Poker is one of the variants that draws a fair amount of attention. At this table, both players and the dealer get five cards and then form the best possible four-card hand. For your main wager to pay, the dealer has to qualify with at least King-high. Alongside that, there is an optional Queens Up side bet that pays out based on the strength of your own hand, starting from a pair of Queens, without regard to whether you beat the dealer or not. This separate payout path nudges how you think about when to use the side bet.
Ultimate Texas Hold’em uses familiar community card mechanics, close to what regular poker players know from live rooms. You post Ante and Blind bets, receive two hole cards, and then can choose to raise at several different points before all community cards are on the board. Here, the dealer must qualify with a pair or better. For guests who enjoy poker-style decision making but would rather not commit to a full cash game session in the poker room, these house-banked tables on our main floor give a structured and clear alternative that still feels like card play.
Getting to the Casino Niagara Poker Room
When you are checked in at Fallsview Casino Resort and feel like live poker, the move over to Casino Niagara is quick and straightforward. In practice, it usually looks something like this:
- Arrive and check in at Fallsview Casino Resort, 6380 Fallsview Blvd, Niagara Falls, Ontario.
- Stop by the Momentum Desk at Fallsview to confirm your Momentum account is set up and linked properly for both properties.
- Walk or use local transit to reach Casino Niagara at 5705 Falls Avenue - the walk normally takes around 10 minutes.
- Enter Casino Niagara and go up to Level 2, where the poker room is located.
- Present government-issued photo identification showing that you are at least 19 years old.
- Speak with the poker room floor staff so they can add your name to the list for the game and limit you prefer.
- Take your seat when called, play your session, and earn Momentum points that track back to the same account you use at Fallsview.
There is one practical timing detail that is worth keeping in mind, and it applies generally, not only here: if you are visiting on a Friday or Saturday and have a particular limit in mind, arriving closer to opening time often reduces wait times compared with coming in late at night. Popular limits can and do fill up faster than new players expect.
The room currently opens at noon every day and closes at 3:45 am. Afternoons during the week tend to be calmer and can be better for easing into the room if you prefer less pressure around you.
