More than 150 machines

The Charlottetown floor holds more than 150 slots, a mix of reel and video machines. From Sunday to Wednesday they run 11 a.m. to 1 a.m.; from Thursday to Saturday, 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. Holiday hours are not published, and a call to 902-620-4222 confirms them.

Every slot outcome is completely random. No machine is ever "due", each spin carries an equal chance, and no ritual changes what the reels show.

Inside the Table Games room

Baccarat, Blackjack and Ultimate Texas Hold'em share a separate room for card tables. Start times shift through the week: 12 p.m. on Sunday, 4 p.m. from Monday to Thursday, and 12 p.m. again on Friday and Saturday. Poker begins later, at 6 p.m. on Thursday and Friday and at 4 p.m. on Saturday. Roulette starts at 6 p.m. from Thursday to Saturday.

No table has a posted closing hour. Every game runs "to close", and the venue gives no time for that. For Charlottetown, Red Shores lists no electronic table games, no bingo and no keno, and it publishes no count of tables. Holiday hours are not published either, so 902-620-4222 is the number that confirms them.

How the club card works

Membership in the Red Shores Rewards Club is free. Cards are issued at the Rewards Club Desk in the Charlottetown casino to adults 19 or older who show valid government-issued photo ID. On slots, the card records 1 point for every $2 played.

Table points depend on how long a guest plays and the average bet, and the card goes to the dealer before play starts. An account with no activity for 12 straight months is deleted. Guest Services handles club questions at 902-620-4266.
