I only play video poker (Class III machines), since those are games of skill. I see no point in mindlessly punching a button on a Class II slot machine. Buffalo Run's video poker machines have a 99.5% payout, the best I've found in the State of Oklahoma. We like to stay at the Downstream, because they are generous in free hotel rooms; we meet friends driving down from KC about once per month. But I always drive over to the Buffalo Run for much of my play. (My wife, who plays Keno, stays at the Downstream.) Downstream's video poker machines pay 8 on a full house, 5 on a flush, which is better than many casinos. (Winstar machines offer an atrocious 7/5.) But Buffalo Run pays 9/6! Also, those odds are available whether you play quarters or dollars, so I play max bet quarters. (You must play max bet to get the best payoff on a royal flush, and I couldn't afford to play $5 per hand. Hitting a royal at max play quarters wins $1000, just below the reporting requirement to the IRS. So I realy, really love the Buffalo Runs's machines.
