I have made the 3 hour drive twice to try my luck at the table games and live poker. First trip I won on tables and lost on Poker. Next trip it was the opposite. Both trips were losers, but I did enjoy the visit and chalk the losses up to being too eager to play, not having been in a casino for quite awhile.



I'm not a slot player so I really cannot comment. The BJ tables have a lousy 6-5 payout on double deck, but they do have 3-2 with the shoes. I go midweek and they usually only have one Craps table open so it can be hard to get a spot, especially on a hot table. Roulette was fun and I actually played longer then I thought I would and came out a winner.



Live poker is always fun and plenty of offerings. On my last trip I had just changed tables from 1-2 limit to no limit when they hit the bad beat jackpot which was over $99,000. A couple hours later they hit the jackpot on the Omaha table. I think the? bad beat jackpots is one of the reasons the poker room stays busy.



The food is not bad and prices at the cafe aren't bad. The restaurant prices seem high for what it is, but I haven't eaten there so cannot really comment. They do have specials on different nights which seem good.



Now for the number one negative in my opinion about this casino: WHO EVER HEARD OF HAVING TO PAY FOR DRINKS WHILE GAMBLING IN A CASINO!!!???? It's just crazy! The waitresses are very nice and never leave you waiting for a drink, but it just irks me to be sitting there losing hundreds and have to fork out $1.50 for a bottled water, or $5 for a mixed drink!



Overall, I will be back, probably on a monthly basis.
