This page explains how the survey desk counts the floor at Red Deer Resort & Casino and what its floor plan shows. It also says who writes the guide, and how the guide is paid.

Counting
Counting and checking
Every fact in this guide was checked on October 3, 2026. Those checks drew on the pages of 211 Alberta, Recovery Alberta, AGLC, the Alberta iGaming Corporation and ACE Casino Red Deer, plus the resort's own pages. We used only numbers those pages publish. Nothing on the floor is estimated.
Where a figure is not published, the guide states that and leaves the gap open. Table minimums, holiday hours, a dress code and the list of ID accepted at the floor entrance are not posted. Holiday hours are a question for the casino line, 403-342-5825. Poker stakes and the way to join a waiting list are missing too. For ACE, any hours question goes to its own line, 403-346-3339.
Reading the floor diagram
The floor plan is a diagram, not a map. Each dot stands for one published machine or table: 343 slots, 16 VLTs, 10 live tables in the main pit and 8 poker tables. Electronic table games have no published count, so the plan gives them no dots.
Only one position on the floor is published. The Casino Restaurant stands in the middle of the floor, and the diagram places it there. Every other zone is grouped by game rather than drawn where it really stands. On the real floor, the 16 VLTs are kept in a salon of their own.
The desk, the money and the pictures
The survey desk writes and signs this guide, a collective byline with no named author and no character. It is not a casino and not the website of Red Deer Resort & Casino or ACE Casino Red Deer. Paid links sit on the home page alone, each marked Ad. They earn the guide a commission, and the online casino behind them may be swapped for another.
No forms, no accounts, and tool entries stay in the open tab. A separate counter logs each visit, receiving your network address and browser, but sets no cookie. No picture shows a person.
Generated images stand in for the resort's slot rows, its main pit and the slot floor at ACE. Each was made from a real photograph of that room and re-shot from a new angle, so none is a photograph. The floor model and the eight poker tables are generated pictures of scale models. The roadside sign at dusk is a real photograph by Jason Woodhead, CC BY 2.0, credited in the list just below. We removed its cars, cleared its screen and turned the night sky to dusk.

Questions
Short answers
Is every dot on the plan a real machine?
Each dot stands for one machine or table in the published count, not for its position. Only the Casino Restaurant has a published spot, the middle of the floor.
Is this the website of Red Deer Resort & Casino?
No, Red Deer Floor Survey is an independent guide with no casino of its own. It takes no wagers, and it is neither the resort's website nor ACE's.
Does the guide keep what is typed into its tools?
No: what you enter in the tools never leaves the open tab. Each view is counted cookie-free, but your IP and browser details go to a separate tally host. Nothing is stored except the light or dark theme, which is cleared once the tab closes.
