My wife and I will be going to Calgary, Alberta, Canada this summer and have noticed that there are some casinos there. I checked the VPFREE2 database but there was no info on Calgary. I posted a message to the VPFREE Canada group but it is inactive and I didn’t get any responses. Does anyone know of any good or semi-good paytables in Calgary? We probably won’t spend much time at a casino, but it would be nice to know if any games are worth the visit.
Calgary casinos
You’ll find game returns to be Strip-like, e.g. 6/5 Bonus Poker. There’s a passable variety of slots. VP is not the focus.
Thanks, I was afraid that this would be the case. We might stop in for a short visit, but that will be all.

It’s been a bunch of years ago, but wife & I were going to stop there, knowing that the VP would be terrible. She confirms what I remember that they were charging for parking @ casino. We left.
Thanks for the warning. There are 4 casinos in Calgary so I’ll have to check to see if they all charge.

I did some scouting in a recent trip and the results are now live on vpfree2:

http://www.vpfree2.com/casino/grey-eagle-resort-and-casino
The players clubs are very different from what we get in Nevada:

Both of the casinos had free parking.

Thanks for making the updates. We have already completed our trip and did stop at Casino Calgary for an hour or so on our trip. Didn’t find anything really playable at the quarter level and their exchange rate on US dollars was terrible. Your comments about the slot club being different from US casinos was definitely true. I spoke with them at the slot card desk and couldn’t see any reason to join their club for a short term visitor.
