New casino at Mont-Tremblant

[SystemsTrader]

Good news a new casino is opening at the ski resort in Mont-Tremblant Quebec in 2009. Hopefully they won't use lousy 8D H17 70% pen like in the rest of the province but I wouldn't count on it. It is worth going just for the skiing however.

you can pretty much be guaranteed they'll be using 8 decks if thats what they are using in the rest of quebec...

agreed on it being worthwhile trip for the skiing though

Its run by the same people (gov of quebec) so the rules will be the same and the dealers will be all new so probably very slow. Although the heat will probably by close to none.

It will be a very nice Casino looking at the pics.

Im thinking that there will be higher limits on account of the big shots in Tremblant.

Surely I will visit this Casino

[FLASH1296]

From what I have read, expect a small casino with poor BJ conditions and very few BJ tables.

From La Presse:

À Mont-Tremblant, Loto-Québec misera sur un casino haut de gamme, fort différent de ceux existants à Montréal, à La Malbaie et à Gatineau. La société des loteries vise la richissime clientèle européenne et américaine qui fréquente la station, a confirmé hier la ministre des Finances.

«Il semblerait qu'il y a un consensus à Tremblant pour avoir un casino, a ajouté la ministre. C'est une clientèle formidable pour un casino effectivement et on va voir prochainement si on donne suite à une demande unanime de la région. Je suis ouverte.»

Sorry, it is in French, but essentially it reads that the casino will be a high-end casino to cater to the rich European and Americain clientele who visit the area. It will be very different from the other 3 casinos in Quebec.

Of note: 20 tables, 5 of which will be Texas Hold'em and 1,954m^2 floor space. A small casino to be sure!
