(actually one casino has managed to offer craps and roulette using cards) The only caveat, of course, is that they are restricted to offering only Class II gaming if they wish to be the sole manager of such activity and not pay state taxes.
Each tribe has full discretion in offering various types of gaming that do not involve dice or roulette wheels, so most places have slots, video poker, blackjack, hold'em, baccarat, and various others. These casinos came about due to the IGRA of 1987, and also due to the State of OK recognizing tribal land as a sovereign nation. Good stuff!Īnyway, I'm going to dive right in and make my first post about something that I find odd or deceiving.įirst a little background: Here in OK, we have many very large tribal casinos that are built, owned, and operated by individual tribes.
I've read WoO regularly, but just recently found that there is a forum for this type of discussion.
