Card Promenade Cradle

The Poker Room

A dedicated room for face-to-face poker, built for focused play and comfortable sessions on Level 2 at 88 Crown Street, Darlinghurst.

Adults 21+ only · Open for scheduled poker sessions and private reservations

Room Atmosphere

A room built for focus

The Poker Room is designed to keep attention on the table. Low lighting, quiet acoustics, and comfortable seating work together so every session feels calm and deliberate. Dark timber and deep blue surfaces reduce visual noise, while individual table lighting keeps cards and chips clear without glare.

Climate control maintains a steady, comfortable temperature through long evenings. The room never feels rushed or crowded, and the layout gives each table enough space for players to move, reach, and stay settled.

Space to settle in

  • Generous spacing between tables
  • Padded chairs with armrests
  • Side tables for drinks and personal items
  • Quiet acoustics for clear table conversation

Table Formats

Choose how you want to play

The Poker Room offers three ways to sit down for face-to-face poker. Each format has its own rhythm, so you can match the room to your evening.

Cash-style sessions

Continuous play with flexible seating. Join or leave between hands, with no fixed start or end time during open hours. Seat availability is shown at the entrance, making it suitable for players who prefer shorter visits or want to settle in for a longer stretch.

Scheduled tournaments

Structured events with set start times and a clear format. Advance reservation is recommended. Blind levels and breaks are announced at the table, and the room keeps the schedule visible so you always know where the session stands.

Private tables

Reserve a full table for your group with a dedicated dealer. Available for private poker events, with your preferred game format and a minimum group size. A private table gives your party the room without the public schedule.

House Etiquette

Respect the table

  1. Keep the room quiet

    Keep conversation low, act in turn, and avoid distractions. Phones stay on silent; step away for calls. No coaching or commenting on live hands, and follow dealer instructions at all times.

  2. Dress and arrival

    Smart casual is welcome. Arrive 15 minutes before your session, check in at the host stand, and keep in mind that late arrivals may lose reserved seats. No sportswear or offensive prints.

  3. Play with consideration

    Give other players room to think. Avoid touching another player's cards or chips, and keep food and drinks on the side tables provided. The room works best when everyone keeps the table clear and the pace steady.
