The place is a rip off. As Slotman says all the machines including video poker are all controlled by a central computer in Albany and not the Random Number Generator like those in Atlantic City or any of the casinos in Pennsylvania. The payoff on video poker is a miserable 92%. Whereas you can play Jacks and Better in Pennsylvania at 99%. The computer in Albany spits out so many winners that day and that is it. Playing in Monticello or Yonkers is the same as buying scratch off tickets. Why New York State chose to go this route is disgraceful. Why not give the public a fair chance?
This casino sends out many coupons to its players. Last time I had three different coupons for free slot play. However, you can only redeem one per day. I told them that this was a bad marketing decision, because it alienates their customers. Players love to receive and use coupons! They didn't care and I haven't returned to this casino.
I don't know about slot machines but I can tell you that the video poker machines are NOT true video poker such as those in Atlantic City.
These video poker machines are actually VIDEO LOTTERY TERMINALS which are controlled by a central computer in Albany. The video poker machines in Atlantic City operate with a RANDOM NUMBER GENERATOR.
VLT'S are similar to scratch off lottery tickets with programmed number of winners. STAY AWAY.
