What Promotions Actually Work Here
At Cowboys Casino in Calgary we do not offer online gaming or online bonus codes. We are a land-based venue, so every promotion is tied to being on the floor with us, not entering something on a website. The two main programs that really matter are Round-Up Rewards for poker and the Calgary Stampede Discount Card for food and non-alcoholic drinks.
Round-Up Rewards credits poker players with 100 points for every hour of play. Those points can be redeemed for 40% off food at The Centre Eatery. It applies on our No-Limit Hold’em tables and on Pot-Limit Omaha games. The Calgary Stampede card works differently: it gives 10% off eligible food and beverages, alcohol excluded.
Getting Started with Poker Rewards
To be tracked for poker rewards, you first need an account with Poker Atlas. Come by the poker room desk while it is open and ask the team to add you to Round-Up Rewards. They will request a piece of ID plus basic contact details so they can set up your profile.
Once your Poker Atlas login and tracking card are ready, hand the card to the dealer when you sit down at a table. From there points are just added in the background - 100 points for each full hour played. You can see your total through the Poker Atlas app or by checking at the poker desk. When you decide to redeem, let staff at The Centre Eatery know before they ring in your meal so they can pull from your points.
It is important to confirm the current expiry rule with staff, because unused points may be subject to a time limit. Activity is recorded from dealer reports, not manual check-ins, so you do not need to tap in.
Stampede Card Benefits Breakdown
The Calgary Stampede Discount Card is usable with us for eligible food and beverage purchases. You should confirm the current purchase and activation steps through the official Stampede channels, then show the physical card at our food counters before you order.
| Benefit Type | Discount Amount | Restrictions | Guest Policy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Food purchases | 10% off | Non-alcoholic only | Extends to guests |
| Maximum value | Up to $25/visit | Single transaction | Per cardholder visit |
| Validity period | Annual renewal | Stampede year cycle | Must present card |
Our staff confirm the card by checking the printed expiry date on the plastic. Photocopies, screenshots or digital-only versions are not accepted. The reduction applies to regular menu pricing and may not stack with other discounts or promotions.
Bad Beat Jackpot Details
The Bad Beat Jackpot in our poker room runs on selected tables on a continuous basis and can grow to $100,000. There are no promo codes, no forms to fill out - you just need to be playing at one of the designated tables during the promotion hours.
For a hand to qualify, the losing hand must meet the minimum strength that we have posted. Both the winning and losing players must use both of their hole cards, a minimum number of players have to be dealt in, and the hand needs to reach showdown without all-in action ending things before the final betting round. When a qualifying bad beat is hit, the losing hand receives the largest share, the winning hand gets a smaller portion, and the remaining players at the table split what is left.
You can see the current jackpot figure on the electronic displays in the poker room. The amount builds from a set portion of the rake that comes out of eligible hands. For assistance or questions about current promotions, guests are encouraged to ask staff at the poker room desk or contact casino customer service.
