Thinking about going to the Winstar Casino and wanted to know what people thought about it.

Thanks

I went there once a little over 10 years ago. We had a group of 6. Two of us held the doors open for the others, as we opened the doors, a cloud of smoke rolled out.

They did have a no smoking section a few feet away from the rest of the casino floor, but other than a sign, there was nothing to block the smoke.

It was the smokiest place I've ever been. It drove several of us outside.

That said, I'm not a huge gambler. If you are, you may be able to ignore what I remember. I have been to Vegas 6 or 7 times and it doesn't compare to Vegas.

It's not the nicest casino but you can have fun. I think it has the biggest casino floor in the US. I did not like how you have to pay a $1 ante for every blackjack hand. If you're looking for the best casino within driving distance from TX I think Golden Nugget in Lake Charles is your best bet

Try the new Choctaw resort/casino in Durant. Higher ceilings, less smoke.

LDL next door is really nice too. When you consider them together, there is no question. That is the nicest casino spot next to Texas.

I'm a fan of Golden Nugget & L'Auberge. Great food too.

If in Oklahoma, Choctaw is really nice.

I really liked the casino, but I had no expectations going in. Went for a company retreat/meeting. We had a good time. Not much else around and the Toby Keith bar was being renovated. The ante sucks but the casino I thought was nice. I liked it better than L'Auberge as far as casino floors go.

Recently went to Choctaw in Durant for the first time. It's great - nice pool, large non-smoking casino area, plenty of restaurants, nice room.

Whoa I've never heard of an ante on blackjack hands before. I would imagine you'd be looking at 40-50 hands per hour unless its packed and slow

For the small betters, you're at a place where the odds of coming out ahead is tough.

To be honest, I haven't been to this casino, but the reviews vary, some people like it, some don't. In general, I think if you're going to play blackjack or poker, it should be a pretty good place. Honestly, nothing quite compares to the atmosphere of an offline casino, but it's not always possible to visit such a place due to lack of time and busy schedules. That's why I prefer online platforms. The first thing I want to highlight is that online casinos free you from being tied to a specific location or schedule, so you can play whenever it's convenient for you. Speaking of mobile versions, I can recommend the Captain Cooks Casino mobile, a review of it you can find on casinosfest.com, which also features other guides for Canadian online casinos. The convenience of these reviews lies in the fact that the information is verified by experts, and you can immediately read user feedback to learn about the mechanics and features of a game to determine if it suits you. Unlike offline establishments, online platforms often offer bonuses that lower the entry barrier, such as free spins or deposit bonuses, allowing you to explore the gameplay better. This is undoubtedly an important advantage.
