Not a good experience for the younger gambler. I am now 23 years old. I first started going when I was 18 (2005), I was taken down on a trip with some older relatives upon coming of "age". Signed up for the players club card- "classic" member. When they implemented table games in late 2007, I was only 20 and turned 21 in 2008. At this point, the legal gambling age was changed to 21 due to arrival of table games and quite frankly understandable. I had a 3 month delay until I turned 21. Went back to find that all of my points have been erased and I had to sign up for a new card. I wrote a letter of disgust and was never given any redemption for my points.

Now onto the gaming. I frequent casinos around the area and Mountaineer by far has the WORST payout between Presque Isle Downs, The Rivers Casino, and The Meadows. I have never been to a casino where you can drop multiple $20s in a dollar machine and not at least break even one time. It's all downhill from the minute you walk in the door. You spend the rest of your time at least trying to break even from whatever you brought, only to get even further in the hole.

I miss the classic Double Diamond 2000, the Winning Bid, Yukon Gold, etc. These machines were just "gone" one day at good ol' Mountaineer. Newer casinos do not have them, however, older ones such as Casino Niagara still have at least a few.

They better make some SERIOUS changes or will be out of patrons before they can BLINK.

RIP the GOOD OLD Mountaineer that DIED when table games came!!!
