Read on for some top tips to help you on your first visit.

What to Wear

If your vision of a casino is James Bond, in a tux, at Monte Carlo, forget it. Smart casual is the general rule. Smart jeans and smart trainers are acceptable, however, football shirts, muscle/vest tops are not.

The refurbished Genting Casino Torquay features 5 casino tables (four US Roulette, three Blackjack, five 6/8 game of Blackjack, two 6/8 game of Slot and one 3-D slot) as well as a 2-D slot machine and a full gaming table with 15 electronic poker-game devices.

For the security and safety of all our members, it is vital that we can see people clearly on our CCTV system and so caps and other hats are not allowed.

Talking to Dealers

You can of course talk to the dealers but please remember that during busy times they have to look after a large number of customers. It would be a good idea to spend some time watching what the other players do, so that you know what is appropriate. They can give help with the rules of the game but they cannot give advice on how to bet.

Having a Drink

If you want a drink whilst gaming simply ask one of the floor waiting staff. You can pay using cash, cash chips or with points from your loyalty card. Remember to keep drinks off the gaming tables and use the small trolley tables that are provided.

Spectating

If you just want to watch a game, that’s fine, however seats and positions immediately in front of the table are reserved for players.

Mobile Phones and Cameras

In non-gaming areas you are permitted to use a mobile phone, whilst also respecting other customers. Generally, taking pictures within the casino is not allowed. However if you are in the casino for a special occasion our manager may be able to allow this as an exception. Please note that this will not however be permitted next to the gaming as photography is strictly prohibited in this area.

Understanding Chips

When playing games such as Blackjack and Roulette you buy casino chips at the tables. Just place your money on the table and ask the dealer for some chips

There are two different types of chips, some with values and others without;

• The ones with values are called “Cash Chips” and are effectively the currency within the casino. You can use them to play on any table you like.

• The non-value chips are called “Colour Chips” and are only used on Roulette. They help the dealer identify who has which chips. Remember you cannot take “Colour Chips” away from the table you are playing on. When ready to leave a table tell the dealer “cash out” and they will exchange them for cash chips.

Genting Casino Torquay Closed

When it comes time to leave, the dealer does not have access to cash at the tables so you need to change your chips for cash at the cash desk.

Do I need to Register?

Membership is not required at Genting Casinos and Clubs and anyone over the age of 18 is welcome. No identification is required unless you appear to be under the age of 25.

All of our Casinos and Clubs offer special promotions and free offers exclusively for our customers who are registered, so registration has more benefits than you might think.

Just 18-miles away from Exeter and less than 30-miles from Plymouth, Torquay is a delightful seaside town in Devon. As with plenty of other delightful seaside towns, it welcomes numerous visitors into its bosom every summer to supplement the 65,000 or so residents. These visitors to Torquay may have well used to visit the former hotel that created the inspiration behind the famous Fawlty Towers, however, that has since been and gone, so perhaps a good alternative form of entertainment may well be Torquay's one and only casino.

Genting Casino Torquay

What used to be a Mint Casino was bought and refurbished by Genting Casinos back in 2013. Genting are a well-known and respected casino chain that is ever expanding, so you’ll find things here that you’d also find in any number of their other establishments. Roulette is available in both the traditional and electronic variations, with the likes of BlackJack and Crazy 4 Card Poker also found around the casino floor. Electronic roulette isn’t the only machine-based game you can play; there are more than a few slot machines available for your entertainment.

Poker players of pretty much any standard will enjoy the offerings at Torquay’s Genting Casino. As well as lessons to teach you how to play, there are also regular tournaments for the more hardcore amongst you. If you’d prefer to get involved with a cash game rather than a tournament then you’ll have that option six nights a week.

As mentioned at the start, Torquay is a coastal town. As with all coastal towns, everything here is centered around the waterfront. The casino is located about 5-minutes or so from the front and both Torquay Train Station and Torre Train Station are a short walk away. The Genting is approximately equidistant from the both of them.
