I was at The Orleans, about 12:30 am on the 4th and their poker room was not open. I returned later that day (around 9 pm) and did not visit that area, but had assumed the room remained unopened. (I now suspect that it was then open.)

As for the South Point, my 1st visit wasn't until the 5th, at about 7 pm. At 7:35 pm, I did a walk-about of the casino floor and saw that the Poker Room was open. I do not recall making a comment about it being opened or closed, but it was definitely open at that time. I noticed also that the temporary, under construction, poker room expansion wall was gone.

I saw also that the Big Sur Oyster Bar was walled off and undergoing a remodel/expansion.
