Located in Northern Indiana just south of Michigan, Four Winds South Bend faces plenty of competition in the market. Games like blackjack, baccarat, and most other table games are considered Class III games, which are prohibited by the casino’s classification under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act. While casino patrons can now enjoy poker, they shouldn’t expect other card games anytime soon. “For fans of the game, the addition of the poker room offers something for everyone.”

For fans of the game, the addition of the Poker Room offers something for everyone,” said Chief Operating Officer Frank Freedman. “Now that it’s ready, it’s surpassed our expectations. Executives first announced plans for the new poker room two months ago. The room compliments the video poker machines that were being offered at the casino. It’s there that players can play $1-$2 and $2-$5 no-limit hold’em, $3-$6 limit hold’em, and $1-$2 pot-limit Omaha (PLO).įour Winds South Bend is a Class II gaming facility, and since poker with live dealers falls under that classification, it made sense for the property to take advantage of the game. It’s only fair then to report some good news in the form of a brand-new poker room open to players.Įarlier this week, Indiana’s Four Winds South Bend opened a new 10-table poker room to the public after a soft opening over Labor Day Weekend. Whenever a poker room closes up shop – such as the recent shuttering of the Treasure Island room in Las Vegas – it tends to make the news.
