Have the turning stone casino right down the road from me.  Used to date a girl that liked to go there.  She would gamble and I would tell her I was gonna go try a different machine.  So I went and found a spot for a beer and a roast beef sandwich and watched the Yankee game.  She'd ask how I did ....I told her I did good , only lost $20.   

I worked there as a second job for 3 years and just couldn't give any money back to them.  At least with a sandwich and a beer I got something out of it.

I usually take a $20 bill, and bet a max of ten cents per spin, and I can get 2 hours of play with those limitations. Sometimes I win. Most times it is just paying to play their machines. $10/Hr isn't too terrible for recreation these days. The problem is that they are pushing me out by elevating the minimum cost per spin to over my limit of $.10 cents. Yes, they call them penny machines, but they set the lower limit well above that. So the quantity of machines available for me to play gets to be fewer and fewer every time I go.

If only temporary this has created some jobs.Monticello is a money making area and has been for many years.

It will create few 100 or thousand good paying jobs up there  and bring in more tourists to the area . Is it the solution to all the problems in that area no .

But better then nothing .

I live 4 blocks from resorts world casino in the city i went there 3xs. Go on youtube and search resort world casino you'll see why.DONT waste your time or money.Its a money making machine for the state thats all.Was hunting in monticello yrs ago walked in the racino on 17b put $20 in a machine  and it sucked it in in 4 secs i walked right out and never returned. I love to play the machines and the catch word is play .All i want i some playtime for my money.All they do nowadays in these casinos is take your money and never give you back anything in comps.Resort world got rid of the buffet cause they wanted to go union now they all have queens burger and popeyes fried chicken[OOooo delicious greasy popeyes] Atlantic city yrs ago was so cool you didnt like one casino go to another and they would throw comps at you free rooms ,buffet and shows . And as far as monticello is concerned just take a ride down broadway and see how the racino boasted the economy bed sty is in better shape and it has no casino.Atlantic city didnt learn like vegas had to. They only worried about the casinos and board walk never fixed the beach or the area off the boardwalk and see where atlantic city is today.

That is what Niagara Falls New York residents thought. Now with millions dollars shortfall in the budget, and no casino money to fall back on,  they don't even have the money to pave streets, that the casino traffic is wearing out. Top it off, he won't lend a dime to help bail them out.  " Nature's Wonder Of The World" we're talking about here. Now the governor is sprouting casinos up all over the state because of the lawsuit with the Native Americans. Foul!
