They have new signs up that say Play More Win more. It should say YOU play more WE win more. Haven't won a thing since June when Caesars took over. We were playing 60 cents on a machine and got 100 bonus hits and won about $15. You talk about a rip off. You are lucky to get 8 bonus hits and win less than a $1.00. Things need to change or people are going to quit going there.
They Bill this Casino as having the "Highest Slot Payouts in Indiana". Definitely NOT a true claim! They are rated, as of June 2017, as number three (3) in the state of Indiana as far as slot payouts are concerned. The slots used to pay very decently until they had them re-programmed with a tighter RNG (Random Number Generator). NOT fun going there anymore! Free play has become very tight as well. Food is very good, service is very good, but don't waste your money on slots!!
A lot of the comments on here are whining about losing money. It's a casino people! If everyone won, they wouldn't be in business long. I've lost many times and won several times. When I won, I did win a decent amount ($400,$1500 and $5000). I'd rather win a bigger pot than $30-$40 but I will say I won't stay at a machine unless it gives me some smaller payouts. My only gripe is the smoke and the cold temps. They do have a non-smoking area (which seems to be pretty smoke free even though it's right off the main area), but my favorite games are in the smoking sections. Overall, I'm happy to have something this close. Would be great if they were allowed to use live dealers, but that's not the case. I'm by no means a "high roller" but I do often play at the high roller games. I've never received very high perks. The comp play is pretty small.
If all it takes to be considered a casino is to offer a few slot machines, then the bathroom stalls at Las Vegas International Airport are all casinos. This is not a casino. Therefore, don't go here for a casino experience and then complain that you didn't get one.
On the other hand, I think the only people who write these reviews are those who lost and then believe things were rigged. It's gambling. You're suppose to lose. If everyone one, the place wouldn't exist. That being said, I've won every visit so far. Machines are state regulated. There are the same odds everywhere you go.
I only stopped cause it was on the way home to Ohi

I only stopped at this place because my friend from Kansas and my step mom asked me to stop in and see what it was like. In Missouri our casinos are not as flashy, but Indiana Live is quite captivating. I pulled in on my way back to Missouri to see what it was like. I walked in and saw games that i had never seen before and I saw some newer versions of my favorite games from back home. Normally when i am on the road ill stop in St. Louis at Harrah's to play some games and whatnot, but me stopping at Indiana Live was a waste of time. I spent 50 bucks there and receieve no game play. Game play meaning... i didn't win enough to keep playing... 50 cents to a dollar here and there... Well, getting that was enough to piss me off. I got the bonus or special on the machine and it paid 2.00 on a 60 cent bet and this particular machine was a 15 spin bonus.
I don't bash casinos just because i have a bad experience, but yeah this one kinda sucked.... I went back a year later and yeah i was still not impressed and still didn't receieve anything for my troubles, so yeah i quit going after last year... I just drive on home or drive past it looking at how much of a waste and I hope whoever won my money at least did something good with it.
