On Monday May 15th we decided to visit Mystic Lake casino to try our luck with the slot machines. The last time we went was in February to the smaller Little Six casino. At the larger Mystic Lake casino, we have to stay close to each other or risk getting lost among the 4000 slot […]

Published by Lucky Dog under Indian Casinos, Minnesota, Slots.

A few weeks ago, we decided to visit Little Six casino in Shakopee, MN. It had been a year since we were last there. They recently resumed sending monthly promotional ads in the mail. They were giving $15 in free play to my girlfriend and $25 to me. I guess I must lose more than […]

Mistress of Egypt Slot

Published by Lucky Dog under Casinos, Indian Casinos, Minnesota.

Earlier this month (October), I decided to visit the local Indian casino to see what had changed since my last visit. The last time I was in a casino was in late 2019, before the pandemic hit. The first difference was the facial temperature scanner that you have to pass before you can enter. Once […]

Reef of Riches Slot Review

Published by Lucky Dog under Casinos, Indian Casinos, Minnesota.

I was at Mystic Lake Casino for a few hours last week and decided to play a few slot machines. I only had about $200, so I had to pick my games very carefully. After trying 4 or 5 penny slots, nothing was hitting and I was getting frustrated. I saw a pirate themed 3D […]

Las Vegas Trip

Published by Lucky Dog under Casinos, Slots.

A lot has changed since the last time I was in Vegas almost 30 years ago. The hotels are bigger, but the party atmosphere is still the same. We stayed at the Tuscany Resort & Casino, which is about a quarter mile from Bally’s on Flamingo Road. We visited 24 casinos and many of the […]

Indian Casino Action

Published by Lucky Dog under Casinos, Indian Casinos, Minnesota, Wisconsin.

Indian Casinos in Wisconsin and Minnesota seem to be doing well. Most are expanding and adding more attractions this year. Unfortunately, that means they are still collecting our hard earned money in exchange for less than expected payouts. Reaching the bonus round on a slot machine used to mean a nice $100+ payout. Now the […]

Published by Lucky Dog under Casinos, Horse Racing, Indian Casinos, Minnesota, Wisconsin.

The 2013 horse racing season is only about six weeks away here in Minnesota.  Canterbury Park has it’s first race scheduled for May 17, 2013. I can’t say that the start of the 2013 gaming season for me has been very good so far. I’ve been to the casino about four times and only recall […]

This past week my girlfriend and I visited the North Star Casino in Bowler, WI. This is a 1200 slot facility with table games, poker, and bingo. They also have a 97 room hotel and 4 restaurants. We stayed overnight at the hotel, which is only a few years old, so it is still very […]

Mystic Slots

Published by Lucky Dog under Casinos, Indian Casinos, Minnesota.

Mystic Lake Casino is known for having some of the tightest slots in the state. But, if you go there as often as I do, you can start to find the machines that payout more often. But, don’t get your hopes up. You will still be lucky if you break even. They couldn’t afford to […]

Grand Casino Hinckley

Published by Lucky Dog under Casinos, Indian Casinos, Minnesota.

We went to check out the Grand Casino in Hinckely, MN this weekend. I had heard that it was easier to win at this casino than some of the others in Minnesota, but that wasn’t the case for us. It’s just like any other casino, if you play long enough, you are going to loose […]
