text: I stayed at the Talking Stick for four days The hotel was very nice The rooms were new and well decorated Except for difficulty in finding electrical outlets in the room and a glass door that separates the bedroom from the bathroom I have no complaints about the hotel room Also the restaurants were good But the casino that is another story Without a doubt it was the worst casino experience I have ever had As an avid gambler I have seen casinos in just about every state where gambling is legal During my four day stay I did not see any customer hit a jackpot that required a Form I found this very troubling and extremely unusual because after four days I expected multiple jackpots Not necessarily that I would hit one but that at least one customer in the whole casino would hit a real jackpot This casino is so tight that after a few days you enter with a clear understanding you are going to lose But there are lots of other reasons in addition to losses that I say the casino should be avoided First security personnel in the casino this does not include hotel security personnel act like they are the Secret Service guarding the President I saw casino security personnel get rude with many peoplegenerally telling them to get out of their way when they were escorting money Do not get me wrong I have seen security guards in other casinos do their jobs but these guys were not there to serve the customer They acted like Gestapo guards on a mission and they were going to cut down anybody that got in their way Second drinks were overpriced I understand that the concept of free drinks while gambling is limited to Nevada Mississippi New Jersey and a few other states But for a beer is outrageous It was just another attempt to gig the customer Third the ticket redemption machines would not provide change when cashing a ticket They would provide currency but they gave a ticket back for change The obvious thought on this is that most customers will not go stand in line at the cashier I did one time for a cent ticket and it took me about minutes to get through the cashier line Because many people will not wait this long for a small amount of money this seemed to me to be just another attempt to gig the customer Fourth pay outs as low as were paid by hand rather than by ticket When a machine would hit jackpot music would pay and the machine would say Call Attendant as if a jackpot had been hit This is extremely inconvenient Whether the concept is to give the false appearance that the casino has more jackpots or this is done for security to stop people from cheating machines I have never seen any other casino in the entire nation do this since electronic ticketing was first introduced Fifth the casino is too small to accommodate local customers and guests staying at the hotel By pm on any evening the casino was so crowded that you had to fight to be able to play The casino premises were very nice but I guarantee that there is not even the slightest chance that I will return to this casino It was absolutely the worst casino experience I have ever had
