Casino Baden-Baden

Germany's grandest casino deals poker on two tables five nights a week — and, because nothing runs on a Friday or Saturday, puts its tournaments where the cash game is not.

The cash game

No Limit Hold'em on two tables, Sunday to Thursday, 19:00 to 01:30. Two levels of stakes: €2/€4 with a €100 minimum buy-in and €5/€10 with a €250 minimum. There is no poker on Friday or Saturday. Reservations are taken only for the 19:00 start and lapse if you are not there; reception takes them from 15:00 on +49 7221 3024-0. Smoking is banned throughout except in designated areas.

The tournament programme

The house publishes a chronological calendar with two recurring formats. All-In Tuesday is €150 plus a €15 fee for 8,000 chips at 19:00, No Limit Hold'em with re-entry for three levels and eighteen published levels. Friday-Night Hold'em is the bigger one — €300 plus €30 for 16,000 chips at 19:30, twenty levels of 20 minutes — and it is the only poker in the building on a Friday. Entries are asked for 72 hours ahead, though reception will still take you after the deadline, and an event counts as full only once it is formally marked sold out.

One caveat: the timetable the casino links for All-In Tuesday is still the 2025 edition, so confirm the structure when you book.

The state championship

Baden-Baden hosts the Baden-Württembergische Pokermeisterschaft, held here for the twelfth time in 2026 in the Salon Marlene, with a further edition planned for 2027.
