Deerfoot Inn & Casino
11500 – 35 Street SE, Calgary, AB T2Z 3W4 · Calgary · Alberta
Deerfoot Inn & Casino is the main tournament poker address in Calgary. Its poker room is open around the clock and runs two tournaments every day, at 10:20 in the morning and 6:30 in the evening, with buy-ins at the recreational end of the scale — the regular daily events are advertised at $60 and $100. Progressive bad beat pots run on both No-Limit Hold'em and Omaha, with a separate quad-eights-beaten jackpot. The room was recently renovated and can also be booked whole for private games and functions, which is unusual among Alberta rooms. The property is a hotel and casino on 35 Street SE in southeast Calgary, with the wider casino open 09:30–03:00 Sunday to Thursday and 09:30–05:00 on Friday and Saturday. Deerfoot is also the Alberta stop on the WSOP Circuit, which it hosted for twelve days from 30 September 2026.
