Tioga Downs opened new casino following a gaming license pursuit which has took more than three years. Tioga Downs opened a new casino featuring a new gaming floor that offers 33 long awaited table games, such as BlackJack, Craps and Roulette together with casino games including Pai Gow Poker, Ultimate Texas Hold ‘Em, Let It Ride, 3-Card and 4-Card Poker and the Big 6 Wheel.
This newly opened casino’s Winner’s Circle Lounge has been rebuilt in a way to house the casino’s new Poker Room. It has 12 tables which can seat up to 10 players at each table and the room has the capacity to accommodate even 120 players. The casino even has plans to hold multiple tournament events here in 2017.
This newly opened facility was also forced to replace all of its 798 video lottery terminals with new slot machines. Once the casino is upgraded guests here will be able to enjoy 944 games which include recently famous titles like Game of Thrones and new 3D models like Plants vs. Zombies. Latest and new gaming machines which are installed here offer a sleeker design and more modern profiles than the older VLTs.
Tioga downs President and General Manager Scott Freeman said:
“The trend in slot manufacturing the past few years has been to make games that are bigger and more comfortable for players. The dynamic themes and interactive bonuses give the guests a better overall gaming experience.”
American Racing and Entertainment Chairman Jeffrey Gural said:
“This has been a long journey, but one that I have stated from the beginning is an important one for the people of the Southern Tier. We have created a lot of additional jobs, revenue and opportunity for the region as well as benefitting local businesses and non profit organizations. I am so appreciative of our local and state officials, as well as Southern Tier community for the overwhelming of the project that helped it come to fruition. It would not have been possible without their help.”
