This casino is poorly designed and claustrophobic. You can come here at 6AM when there are hardly any people and strangely it still feels crowded. The atmosphere here is dreadful. Everyone looks grim bordering on hostility. The sound system plays the customary pop and rock music to try and add a fun vibe. A funeral dirge would be more appropriate for these sad faces. Almost every other casino that I have ever been to gets my adrenaline going when I first walk in. Optimism abounds, you feel pumped up that you might win some money. When you walk in here you feel like you're a rat in a dark maze with no hope of scoring any cheese. It's so gloomy in here you want to get the hell out of here quickly. That's because when you put money in the machines you get absolutely zero payback. At least other casinos give you enough small wins to keep you going. The Des Plaines river is nearby. Just throw your money in there, make a wish and perhaps good fortune will come your way in the future. You have zero chance on their slots believe me. If you're into video poker they have very few of those. I vowed never to lose my money here 5 years ago and I have kept my promise. Their buffet is very good though.
