Live Gaming Around the Clock

Regulated Gaming in Ontario

The gaming operation at Casino Rama Resort falls under the oversight of the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) and is regulated by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO). Gateway Casinos and Entertainment Limited holds the operating contract under a 23-year agreement signed with OLG in July 2018, covering the Central Gaming Bundle that includes this property.

The resort sits on land owned by the Chippewas of Rama First Nation, who participate as landowner and revenue partner - a structure that has been in place since the property opened in 1996. That layered arrangement means guests are playing in a facility with a clearly defined regulatory chain rather than an independent operation.

Common Questions About the Floor

Are all table games open at the same time?

Not necessarily. Casino Rama Resort operates its live tables 24/7 as a general policy, but specific variants - particularly the less common poker-style games such as High Card Flush or Big Raise Stud Poker - may not be staffed on every shift. The floor spans roughly 192,000 square feet, so game availability can shift based on traffic.

For confirmed hours on a specific title, the resort provides two direct lines: 1-800-832-7529 and 705-329-5804. Electronic table game terminals for Blackjack, Baccarat, and Double 00 Roulette run with limits starting at $3, which makes them a lower-commitment option if the staffed tables are running higher minimums at a given time.

Live Table Games

The live casino floor at Casino Rama Resort operates around the clock, with no daily shutdowns or scheduled dark hours. The main gaming area covers roughly 192,000 square feet, so it is large enough that first-time visitors usually grab a printed floor map at the entrance just to get their bearings. Slot machines run in the 1,800 to 2,200 range depending on when you check, and the count of live dealer tables usually sits somewhere between 47 and just over 60.

Game CategoryTitles Available
Blackjack VariantsBlackjack, Spanish 21, Free Bet Blackjack
BaccaratSqueeze Baccarat
RouletteStandard Roulette
Poker VariantsTexas Hold’em, 3 Card Poker, Mississippi Stud, Let It Ride Bonus, Caribbean Stud Poker, High Card Flush, Big Raise Stud Poker, Pai Gow Express (no commission)

Not every game listed will be open on every shift. Some of the poker-style variants, especially the niche ones, rotate in and out based on the time of day and how busy the floor is. If your trip is built around a specific title like High Card Flush or Big Raise Stud, picking up the phone and asking before you leave is honestly worth the two minutes. You can check availability on the main numbers: 1-800-832-7529 or 705-329-5804.

Electronic Table Games - Limits and Format

Electronic table games at Casino Rama Resort are run through automated terminals. There is no human dealer on these, just a screen interface handling the cards or wheel and your bets at your own tempo. They tend to be the easier starting point if you are still learning basic table flow, or if you prefer lower limits without sitting in a busy live pit.

ETG TitleFormatBet Range
BlackjackAuto-mode terminal$3 - $300
BaccaratAuto-mode terminal$3 - $300
Double 00 RouletteAuto-mode terminal$3 - $100

The Double 00 Roulette terminal uses an American-style wheel with two zero pockets. That layout increases the house edge compared to a single-zero game, so it matters if you are particular about odds. Minimum wagers on all three ETG titles start at $3 CAD, which keeps them accessible for casual players and short visits without committing a big bankroll.

Getting to the Floor

The resort is located at 5899 Rama Road, Rama, Ontario, L3V 6H6, roughly a 90-minute drive north from Toronto via Highway 11. It is not a quick city-center stop, more of a planned trip destination, so it pays to check the drive time and ID requirements before you are already on the highway.

To reach and enter the gaming floor:

  1. Arrange transport or drive to 5899 Rama Road in Rama, Ontario.
  2. Use the main resort entrance, then follow the overhead signs directing you toward the casino floor.
  3. At the access point, present a valid government-issued photo ID. Ontario regulations require age and identity verification for entry.
  4. Pick up a printed floor map near the entrance or request one at the Guest Services desk.
  5. From there, walk over to the ETG section or the live dealer pit depending on what you intend to play.
  6. If a certain table game matters to you, confirm with a floor supervisor on arrival, or call in advance to check if it is running.
  7. With valid ID, visit Guest Services to enroll in the rewards program either before you start playing or once you finish.

One practical detail that applies to large casino properties in general: before you sit down anywhere, spend a few minutes looking over the map and marking the sections you care about. It cuts down a lot of backtracking and saves time, especially on a first visit.

Casino Rama Resort’s live casino floor operates under AGCO supervision and OLG ownership. The day-to-day management of the property has been contracted out to Gateway Casinos and Entertainment Limited under a 23-year operating agreement that took effect on July 18, 2018.

Rewards Program

The casino rewards program is handled fully on-site at the Guest Services counter. There is no web form to fill out in advance and no external enrollment partner involved. You go to the desk, present your ID, complete a short registration form, and receive your physical player card immediately.

After that, you can insert or present the card at slot machines, ETG terminals, and eligible table games to accumulate points while you play. You can check how many points you have and redeem them either directly at Guest Services or with designated kiosks located on the floor. Earning rates, tiers and detailed rules are not published openly, so for up-to-date terms you would need to ask at the desk or call 705-329-5121.
