Maybe it's because we were there on a Thursday afternoon. Not only were players pessimistic but, the staff was too.
The dealer was very pessimistic.Īs we walked around and tried some roulette and slots, the pessimistic atmosphere seemed to be everywhere. Usually the dealers are encouraging the players and saying good luck or next time. Then the dealer was apologizing every time the players lost their money. Every table is a losing table (most of the time), so we ignored it. As soon as Hubby put his money down, one of the players started saying it was a 'losing table'. That didn't bother us as much at the atmosphere of the table. At this casino, he didn't even last 10 minutes (even though he had 18-19 for 75% of his hands). In Vegas he can play for a half hour on $100. We also liked that most of the restaurants were all in one area. We loved the drink bars to get free pop, water, coffee, tea etc. We really enjoyed the sprawling building and found many different kinds of areas. I love exploring casino floors, so we took a tour to see what our options were. The lights and tables were lined up and walking paths between it all. It was huge, the carpets were very much like typical Vegas carpeting. When we walked into the Hollywood Casino it reminded us of the Vegas casinos. We are not avid gamblers, but every now and then we like to have some fun and waste a little money playing games. Hubby and I have been to Las Vegas and Atlantic City.
