Rivers Casino Portsmouth

Rivers Portsmouth poker room is Virginia’s first and (currently) only state-authorized poker room. Located just 25 minutes from the iconic Virginia Beach, Rivers has 24 tables, all equipped with automatic shufflers, cup holders and plenty of room for player convenience. Restrooms, snack bar, sports book, and self-parking are all located within a few yards of the poker room. The room has a dedicated poker room cashier cage and a state-of-the-art, glass-enclosed high limit room. The most common games spread include 1/3 NL, 2/5 NL, 5/10 NL, 2/2 PLO and 10-10-25 PLO. NL games are typically spread 9-handed, with Omaha games being 8-handed. Aesthetically, the room has massive lighted chandeliers hanging over each table for perfect lighting at any seat. The chairs are swivel adjustable to go up and down for maximum comfort and on caster wheels. The room is surrounded by 18, 85-inch high-definition flat screen televisions with perfect sightlines from any seat. Rivers utilizes a system for tracking the waiting lists, open seats, chip requests and player-earned comps. All players swipe at the table by presenting their Rush Rewards card to the dealer upon arrival. All time is accounted for, and all open seats are automatically tracked at the brush podium. The audio system in the room allows for patrons outside of the room to hear their name being called, and today's top hits music quietly playing on all overhead speakers. Rivers offers a $1 per hour comp rate. These earned comps can be used for the many restaurants within the property.
