Three layers, three clocks
Floor hours at Starlight Casino New Westminster are published as nonstop: any hour, any weekday, across all 365 days in a year. For the live tables, no separate hours are published. The week chart marks that layer as not published rather than guessing.
The poker room keeps its own clock. On Friday and Saturday, it deals for the full 24 hours. Sunday to Thursday, the room opens at 11 AM and stays open until late. No closing time is published for those days, so the chart shows the room open until midnight with no closing time, then marks the hours after midnight as not stated.
Every time shown is Pacific local time, which BC uses throughout the year. For holiday hours, confirm with the casino's own website.
Captions of a night
11 PM on a weeknight, Sunday to Thursday, and the Starlight floor is open, as at every hour. The racebook closed at 9 PM. Poker opened at 11 AM, but its closing time is not stated. At 11 PM the chart shows that room open with no closing time, and at 3 AM and 6 AM it is marked not stated. After a Thursday, 3 AM and 6 AM fall on Friday, when poker runs 24 hours.
Friday or Saturday at 11 PM, the floor, the poker room and the racebook are open, and the racebook closes at midnight. 3 AM after a Friday falls on Saturday, and poker still deals, as it does at dawn, 6 AM. After a Saturday, both hours fall on Sunday morning, before the published 11 AM poker start.
Grand Villa Casino Burnaby publishes the same 24-hour floor. Four of the nine rooms run around the clock, Starlight among them.
Inside the room
Starlight lists more than 935 slot machines, along with 54 gaming tables. Off the main floor is its seven-table poker room, which runs on its own clock. No separate hours are published for the tables.
The racebook, for off-track betting on thoroughbred and standardbred racing, is in MATCH Eatery & Public House. Its hours: Sunday 9 AM to 9 PM, Monday and Tuesday 12 PM to 9 PM. Wednesday and Thursday run 9 AM to 9 PM, and Friday and Saturday 9 AM to midnight. Starlight also has Kirin Restaurant.

Questions by the clock
Is Starlight open at 3 AM on a Tuesday?
The floor is: at Starlight Casino New Westminster, play continues at all hours, with no weekday excluded. The poker room's weeknight closing time is not published, so 3 AM on a Tuesday is not stated for poker.
When do the live tables start?
Starlight publishes no separate hours for its live tables. Its published floor hours cover every hour of every day. Holiday hours are checked on the casino's own site.
Does the poker room stay open overnight?
On Friday night, yes: poker goes all 24 hours on both Friday and Saturday. After midnight on Saturday the hours fall on Sunday, before the 11 AM start, so that stretch is not stated. Sunday through Thursday, play starts at 11 AM and goes on until late; no closing time is published.
