Very tight, slot only casino. They are the only game in town, so their payouts are low. I think when more casinos pop up, they will be forced to loosen up. I go to visit my family in Baltimore several times a year, and have gone to this casino about a half dozen times now. Never won, nobody that has gone with me has won. They do have a great buffet every now and then(not 7 days a week), and they are always sending me promotions in the mail. Hopefully Maryland will allow poker soon, and allow more casinos and this place could be great.
This place is off I-95 between Baltimore and Wilmington. If you're in the area, Delaware Park is only 30 minutes away and a much better deal.
The buffet is crummy like all Hollywood Casinos. I've been here twice, and even when we were here on New Year's Eve there was no excitement. The second time I got a new comp card since I didn't have mine (it was an unexpected stop). She had to put all my info in again since it didn't take the first time.
And the slots here just don't seem to payout. This may because Maryland slot parlors have lower payouts (feel the same way about Ocean Downs too). But not someplace you should seek out.
This is a brand new casino with 1,500 machines. It's a pretty small place, you can stand anywhere, rotate 360, and see all 4 walls.
It's slots only as per Maryland statute (for now) and they're the "slots in a box" style for the most part. There are several banks of progressive slots, and a video poker area. They have 4-6 of the electronic blackjack and 3 card poker machines, and a bank of probably 10 of the electronic roulette machines.
Here's the hidden gem involving the electronic roulette machines:
1) Euro/French Style, which means only a single zero
2) The single number pays out THIRTY SIX to one.
If you're playing single numbers a lot, your edge based on the single zero and the increased payout (most pay 34 or 35 to 1) give the house a much lower edge on this game!
Stopped into the Perryville casino on the way home from Delaware Park, and what a disappointment. No real table games, slots only.....and everyone seemed to be in a bad mood because nobody was winning. Better to make the extra 25 minute drive into Delaware!!
I go to this casino almost every week. They have table games now, and the slots are no longer as tight as they were. I had nice hits last several times...this is a small casino but well lit and modern. The roulette table could use a chip sorter...LONG delays between spins. Still, overall a fun place to visit.
