Phoenix's West Valley is now home to a casino that offers poker and blackjack tables, more than 1,000 slot machines and live bingo.

The Tohono O'odham Nation's 1.2 million-square-foot Desert Diamond Casino West Valley opened Feb. 19 after more than two years of construction. It replaced the nearby interim casino, which opened in 2015 and offered slot machines.

Beyond games, Desert Diamond offers 10 options for food and drink, including a buffet, steakhouse and two-story bar in the middle of the action of the 24-hour casino. Expansion plans include a hotel, spa and convention center.

Here's what you'll find at the Desert Diamond Casino West Valley.

Poker, table games, slots

Unlike the interim location, the casino's Class III status, defined as 'full 'Las Vegas style' casino gaming' by the Arizona Department of Gaming, means enthusiasts will find card tables as well as machines.

There are 36 poker tables, 48 blackjack tables, 1,136 slot machines and live bingo.

Evening bingo sessions take place seven days a week, with doors opening at 3:30 p.m. and warm-ups starting at 6 p.m. Buy-ins begin at $20 for paper and $35 for electronic bingo. Payouts range from $250 to $1,000, going up to $10,000 for special games.
