Responsible Gaming

The Polsby House casino is an evening in the cellar vaults, not a way of earning. These are the rules of the room and the help we can arrange for you.

18+ below stairs

The cellar is open to adults of 18 and over. Everyone is asked for photo ID on the stairs, house guests included. Anyone under 18 may not play, watch the tables or wait inside.

Keeping the game a game

Settle on a budget before you go downstairs and stop when it is gone. Take breaks in the courtyard, watch the clock, and never borrow to play or try to win back what you lost. Once it feels less like entertainment, leave it for another night.

Caps, pauses and exclusion

Ask a croupier or the duty manager and we will limit how often you come down, or keep the door closed to you for a period you name. We keep it to ourselves and it applies from that minute.
