Have you ever went to a casino?
« on: May 21, 2014, 08:20:14 am »
If yes, where did you go, what was the experience, and would you go back there again?

If no, would you  like to visit one?

We have a few Reservation-run casinos here in MN, so I've been to a few in the state. Mystic Lake is the one that I like the best, although Treasure Island is closer to where I live. I have also been to Casino Niagara in Ontario. Usually when I go, I just play black-jack at the tables since they tend to have the best odds and there is both skill and luck involved. One of the horse tracks also has a poker room that I went to once (during the poker craze on TV), but after trying that I realized I just am not that great of a poker player (I guess it was really easy to read my tells, as someone pointed out after I left the table); it is much different playing poker on-line than it is in person.

I have been to a few, went many times to Deadwood South Dakota which was so cool, set in the Old West theme, and great history to the area too

I have been to a couple in Michigan too.

But its been about 15 years since Ive been to one, while I LOVE to go, I have never won, so Im just wasting money :)

Yes I have been to several but I go to relieve my stress. My hubby and I go to the casino just to have fun but if we win money it is just used for the next time we go down to the casino. I don't ever expect to get rich there because I play it like they are video games. I love video games.

I'm not much of a gambler, but every once in a while I'll go to one of those Indian casinos that are prevalent out here in southern California. Every few years we'll go to Las Vegas. I like to sight-see and walk the strip and eat more so than gamble. :P

I've never been to casino and don't plan on going to one. I'd lose all my money at the slot machines.

Funny thing about going to a casino - when I was 19 I went on a cruise.  I took $1.00 into the casino and played quarter slots.  After loosing it in less than 5 min. I couldn't see what the fun was all about.  The next time I was in a casino I was pregnant and 21.  I spent the afternoon walking around - bored.  It's just not my cup of tea.

I have not, and I don't think going to one would be a good idea for me. The slot games online (with fake money) are addicting enough.

I have been going to casinos since I was a little kid as I use to play at the provided arcade and do things in the resort stay (ski). I've also been gambling (but infrequent) ever since I hit the legal age of 21.

I went to Harrah's Casino a couple of years ago.... LOVED IT!  It is here in NC.  But, I did go to Vegas several years ago and it was a blast.  Would love to go back!   8)

I don't gamble, but I used to live in Vegas.  I lived behind the Imperial Palace so I'd cut through their lobby and cross over to do my banking at the ATM in Caesar's.  I checked out some of the acts and buffets to but only played a few nickel slots a couple times.

These days I live in NM and we had a Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, until June 2013, so I went there with my camera before it changed back to Isletta.

Many many times, though not in quite a few years. I've never been much of a gambler, but it is entertaining to go to a casino and play a little and see the sights.

Yes, I went to a casino on day. It was on a boat. I enjoyed it. But I did not win anything.
