How many of these will be allocated to poker?

Seems like zero unfortunately!

0 for poker.

1000 people, however only for VIP members (platinum and black card holders)

I went in yesterday. Very underwhelming at the moment. I don't play poker, so I don't have an opinion there either way. But the whole set up is very restrictive.

It's not official but yeah 0 for poker is the rumour and the 1k is just high rollers or VIP's currently anyway

Hopefully this will change with Sunday’s announcement

No poker on the cards for December at least. Poker dealers haven't even done their refresher training yet.

Had a look at Crown, was sad to see the poker room turned into low level blackjack tables. Poker will be moving to the area which was formerly Groove Bar (behind Lumina), won't be open before new year.

Damn not a good sign.

any further word on what’s going on with this?

Current whisper is poker will be back in Feb/March. However it'll be capped at 10 tables and only running Friday/Saturday/Sunday. No more tournaments or tournament series', Aussie millions etc likely gone for good. This is coming from management so likely to be legit but plans can change. They've been wanting to do away with poker for a long time so seems like they're largely seizing this opportunity to make it happen.

That absolutely sucks

Anyone in WA played poker at Crown Perth? What's it like over there?

What is the source?

Can confirm, I mentioned it in an above post back in December. The new location doesn't have room for more than about 15 tables.
