Went to a relatively new Casino yesterday, in Pickering yesterday, and holy shit what a joke! First I get there, it took awhile because of the snow, and I had to piss. Well don't those idiots decide to close all the restrooms at the same time for cleaning! So I had to cross the barrier just to piss and got into with one of the workers. Then I was watching my Ducks bet, and don't those morons change the channel to put it on the Jays game that finished some 7 hours ago!?!? They even turned the live Raptors game for this already completed Jays game. I asked the staff what they were doing and they said they're "trying to figure it out" I said, what's there to figure out, you had the games on, why change to a repeat of the days game!?!? Finally they got the Raptors back on, no sound, only the sound from the Jays game, but no Ducks game! I said fuck it, to my buddies not the staff and let's go gamble. Here's where the real fun starts. So I go to the floor and ask where's the craps table? The Sup was very nice and honest and said, they don't have it as it doesn't make enough money. Ok do you have the non dealer, dice in bubble craps? No it doesn't make enough money. Wow you don't even have to pay workers! Next question where's the Pia gow tables? No Pia gow tables, it doesn't make enough money. WOW! So I decided to play blackjack. I get a blackjack and the dealer pays me 60 and a 50 dollar bet (dumb on my part considering I only bet 50 a game during football and 100 on my hockey plays!)? I said you owe me an extra 15. No it's 6 to 5. WTF!?!?! What an absolute joke!! Blackjack doesn't pay, no Craps or Pia gow, fuck you might as well give your gambling funds at the cashier desk as soon as you walk in, and walk around like a Zombie, as all the other games have a massive house edge!!! TERRIBLE!!!

Sounds about right

I see the same thing regularly at sports restaurants with employees that are clueless

Dozens of TV's everywhere, and big games are in progress or about to be underway, and the clueless staff has none on, and when you ask them to turn it on a certain game, they don't even know the names of the sports teams and have to keep asking you "is this the game?"

Went to Pickering Casino a month ago. Difference is I checked their website before going to see what they had.

I agree, it's lacking a lot. Just like Mohawk or Woodbine.
Only place to play Pai Gow seems to be Fallsview. Brantford has 1 table, but its rarely open.

Changing BJ payouts to 6-5 is highway robbery. It increases the house edge 400%.

Greedy bastards. People should refuse to play it.

I bet you they're showing a live game, not a game that finished earlier in the day, like those twits at Pickering!

Yeah I get that but it was last minute, and none of us have ever been to that one. But I don't think they'll tell you on their website that BJ pays 6/5!

Hell yeah! I'm not going back! No craps, no Pia Gow, no payouts on a blackjack, what the hell are you supposed to play?!?! It's like betting football spreads and laying -140 per single bet! Is this the same in Vegas?!? They gotta still have Pia Gow and 3 to 2 blackjack... do they?
