Please report new regulations and updates to admin@ildado.com.
Colorado casinos offer electronic games including slots, video poker, video blackjack and video keno, and table games of poker, blackjack, let it ride and three-card poker. Colorado’s limited gaming rules require that a single wager do not exceed $5.
Colorado gaming regulations do not allow the casinos to be open 24 hours. The maximum opening hours allowed are from 8am to 2am.
The casinos are situated in the mountain towns of Black Hawk, Central City and Cripple Creek, and two Native Indian casinos in Ignacio and Towaoc. There are also cruises with casino on board in Crystal River, and a saloon in Breckenridge.
For general information on Colorado call the State’s Tourism Board on (800) 433-2656.
