Live Table Games and Stakes
The live casino floor at 6-8 Preston Street is spread across two levels, mixing staffed tables with electronic positions in one compact space. The live area runs four core table games: American Roulette, Blackjack, Three Card Poker and Baccarat. Each game comes with its own betting band, and the gap between minimum and maximum stakes is quite noticeable from one to another.
| Game | Tables | Min Stake | Max Stake |
|---|
| American Roulette | 4 | £1 | £200 |
| Blackjack | 2 | £3 | £300 |
| Three Card Poker | 1 | £1 | £5 |
| Baccarat | 1 | £10 | £3,000 |
Baccarat stands out immediately. With a £3,000 limit on the upper end, it sits in a different bracket from every other table on the floor. Anyone thinking about playing near that level should speak with floor staff in advance and make sure the table is open, staffed and ready before taking a seat. At the other extreme, Three Card Poker is capped at £5 per hand, so it feels more like a low-pressure, casual table than a high-stakes option.
Live dealers normally start operating from about 3-4 pm. Before that, the electronic roulette positions and the 19 slot machines are already live from 2 pm, when the doors open. When both formats are counted together - dealer tables and e-table terminals - the total gaming capacity comes to around 24 table spots across the two floors.
Opening Hours
Genting Casino Brighton trades every day of the week. Daily opening is at 2 pm, with closing time usually at 4 am on most nights. On Saturdays the venue can run a little later, sometimes up to 5 am depending on internal scheduling. In practice that gives roughly 14 or 15 hours of access on weekdays, with the weekend window stretched slightly longer.
There is a practical point that catches some visitors: live tables are not in action right from 2 pm. Turning up at opening time means the only options for a while will be electronic roulette and the slots. Those bridge the gap just fine, but it helps to know in advance if your focus is on live blackjack, roulette or similar.
Hours and times do move around on occasion. To be safe, check the current schedule at gentingcasinos.co.uk/casinos/genting-casino-brighton/ or call the venue on +44 (0) 1273 725101 before travelling into town specifically for the casino.
Getting In and Getting Started
Entry is run on the standard Great Britain casino model. Door staff will ask for valid photo ID - usually a passport or driving licence works. New guests have to complete registration at reception before walking onto the main floor. That sign-up is fairly quick, but it is mandatory rather than optional.
Dress expectations are roughly smart-casual, in line with most UK land-based casinos. There is no detailed written dress code publicly listed for Brighton itself, so tidy clothing, no sportswear-heavy look and clean footwear are the safer choices if unsure.
A typical first visit might look like this:
- Check opening hours and the rough live table start time before you leave home.
- Pack government-issued photo ID, they can and do ask everyone.
- Head to the Preston Street entrance at 6-8 Preston Street, BN1 2HN.
- Stop at the front desk and register if you have not been there before.
- Change cash for chips at the cashier before approaching a staffed table.
- If you want to play Baccarat anywhere near the £3,000 top limit, flag it to floor staff so they can confirm table availability.
Food and drink run in parallel with gaming. Bar service is active through casino hours, and screens with live sport are dotted around. Premier League football and NFL coverage are regularly shown on big TVs, which gives the main space a bit of a sports bar feel rather than a quiet, tucked-away gaming room.
Electronic Gaming and E-Tables
The electronic area sits alongside the live dealer zone but works independently from it. Roulette terminals marked as “LIVE E-tables” start operating from 2 pm, using an automated system instead of a dealer at the wheel. These stations are convenient for anyone who wants to get playing as soon as doors open, or prefers quick-fire spins with no waiting on other players.
There are 19 slot machines on site. Public information does not specify exact game titles or which software studios supply them. The same goes for stake bands on the electronic roulette and the slots: specific minimum and maximum bets are not published, so the only reliable way is to ask on the floor, where staff can give the latest limits.
Players can swap between live tables and electronic products freely. No second membership, extra registration, or separate area access is needed. Both formats share the same two-level layout, so moving from a roulette e-terminal to a blackjack table mid-session is straightforward.
