Woodbine Casino launches Toronto’s first live table games
Casino table games have finally come to Canada’s largest city, courtesy of Great Canadian Gaming (GCG) and Woodbine Racetrack.
On Friday, GCG announced that its One Toronto Gaming (OTG) subsidiary had received the necessary zoning approvals from Toronto city brass to offer table games at Casino Woodbine, the formerly slots-only parlor attached to the fabled racetrack.
The casino has formally launched 50 live dealer tables as well as around 200 electronic tables and a ‘stadium’ style setup that can accommodate a further 100+ positions. OTG says it expects to add an additional 50 live tables and over 300 additional slots – bringing the property’s slots count to around 3,000 – in the fourth quarter of this year.
OTG CEO Rod Baker called the table launch “another important achievement” for his company that had generated over 400 new jobs and would create another 300 by the time the Q4 tables arrive.
