Awesome is it close to you?
Yes it's a little over an hour from my house. They posted several pics on FB. We have been waiting for this for a long time.Quote:

Kim, is this the casino that was closed down and has been in litigation? Where is it located in Texas?
Used to travel through there quite often. Maybe this is the start of more TX casinos? Fingers crossed for a long honeymoon period for you once it opens!

Yes that's the one. The address is Livingston,TX. That's the closest town.Quote:

Good Luck if you go & tell DH that this Packers Fan says hey.
Yes that's exactly what it is. From the pics they posted on FB it looks like they have crowded the machines very close together. So we will see. I'm hoping they have some red screen machines since it seems that people do well on those. We consider Coushatta our home casino and that's over 3 hours away with the ones in Lake Charles just a little closer. So hopefully it will be a fun place to spend a couple hours every now and then.Quote:

Kim, I never went there when it was open before, but I know of people who did.There were times you had to wait outside just to go in and then if you wanted to play a machine you just about had to play whatever no one was playing at the time.I hope they get the OK to enlarge it and make it bigger.
Yep just up 59 to Livingston. I will report in for sureQuote:

I never went there before either. I'm sure it will be very crowded. We called and they said they are open 24/7 but NO alcohol so maybe that will discourage some people. I hope so!Quote:

I hope not. We deal with 18 year olds at Winstar and it's a huge pain.Quote:

It is super, super small, but nice. You walk right in and get your card and it opens into the non-smoking room. Some doors open into the smoking room which I think is backwards because people will come in smoking.
The machines are all clones of ones we know. 88 fortunes, Mustang Money, China Shores(ish), MooLaLa, etc. Most with slightly different names.Some poker machines and high limit reels. I played the dollar reels hoping that they were red screen machines ( I couldn't tell), but I never got more than a cherry.
We won a little and then played it all back - so typical trip. There is a free coke/coffee station and an in house restaurant that we didn't try.
It's just an 1:15 from my house so it will be a fun place for an evening out or a short Sunday morning trip like today.
Here's one pic from a bonus

Thanks Kim, I use to go years ago. I don't like the drive on 59, once out of Houston though it's a nice ride. Was it crowded at the time you went?
No, we went very early this morning and it was almost empty. The new Grand Parkway runs right by my neighborhood so we jumped on that and got to 59 really quick so it was an easy drive. But 59 through town is awful, I agree.Quote:

VGT wasn't one of the manufacturers that I heard they have... I did hear they have some Castle Hill Gaming http://www.castlehillgaming.com/ Castle Hill Gaming was started by some ex VGT folks and the games look very similar. Not sure how similar they play, but I would guess pretty close.Quote:

Thanks @Warren . That's the ones they have. I forgot to look at manufacturers but I will next time.Quote:
