A Milwaukee woman was recently charged with embezzling $1 million from her employer to feed a slot machine habit at Potawotomi.

The criminal complaint, citing Potawotomi records, said over a period of several years, she ran $3,914,184 through the slot machines and had a net loss of $483,327.

According to my math, based on those numbers, Potawotomi's slots paid back 87.7 % cent.


Compare that to the actual paybacks of non-Indian casinos as reported in CASINO PLAYER magazine - 93 to 95% for $1 slots.

I casino alot. This place is on the bottom of my list. Service sucks, slots are not only tight, but half of the buttons don't work. There are a TON of people sitting at slots not playing them. (I call them loungers) The casino promotions are a joke. I just waited in line for a hour to receive a gift card for Thanksgiving and when I went to use it the balance was ZERO!!! Ripped off again! My advise....STAY AWAY!!!

i been going the last 6 months, never have I seen such tight slots in all my life, they eat your money and pay very little, I was playing quick hits dollar machine, at 3 bucks a crack and 5" I finally got the free bonus spins, 42 of them to be exacts, I won 169.00" really? After I stuck in 200.00" I had no choice but to munipulate machines and was able to grab 600.00" only way you can win is to munipulate..sometimes it works and sometimes not, but we're going eyes where , enough of spending hard earned money for a few bucks, it's a joke to even call themselves a casino..and people there can be shady...a girl sits down and says give me a cigarette? Not plz but give, like I owe her, I said no I'm all out..put a please in there and I'd have done it..I'm sorry but don't waste your money here, go elsewhere..to hard to get anything from this place...after 10 grand I have nothing to show, what does that tell you

I've been going to this casino since it was just a little barn when it first opened. Over the years. my visits have been far fewer, not due to any changes in my financial situation, just that I have seen how their payouts have steadily gone down. I gladly spend the extra hour to drive to Madison and take my chances at DeJope. To anyone in the Milwaukee area, I'd suggest DeJope, Ho Chunk or the riverboats in Gary/Hammond. You stand a far better chance of your money lasting more than 20 minutes.

This place is way too tight.

I was playing slots. I finally hit the bonus round (10 free spins). I didn't win enough to cover my initial bet.

Don't bother to play here.
