US – Live! to open smoking patio gaming area in Maryland
By Phil - 21 February 2018
Live! Casino & Hotel today announced Orchid Gaming & Smoking Patio, Maryland’s first and only outdoor gaming area, featuring both table games and slots.
Scheduled to open mid-April, Orchid Gaming & Smoking Patio is also the first in the state to offer Ticket In/Ticket Out (TITO) Tables, enabling players to move between slots and table games without carrying chips to the main cage.
“Orchid is the latest in the evolution of Live! Casino & Hotel, as we continually strive to create an environment that is engaging and welcoming for our guests,” said Rob Norton, President of Live! Casino & Hotel. “With Orchid, we are offering them visually stunning space to enjoy an extensive collection of cigars and spirits, while seamlessly moving between their favorite table games and slots.”
Orchid will feature 12 live action table games, including Blackjack, Baccarat and Roulette; plus, 28 electronic table positions, including “Dealer-Assist” Blackjack, Baccarat, Craps and Roulette, and Bar Top terminals. In addition, more than 150 of the latest slot machines, including Video Poker, will be available in denominations ranging from $.01 to $10.
The gaming zones are interspersed among visually stunning features representing the four elements: Earth, Air, Fire, and Water. Orchid’s exclusive bar will feature lounge seating and an extensive collection of spirits, including special barrel aged cocktails. Specially-built humidors will house premium cigars curated by Orchid’s cigar specialists.
