Gold Eagle Casino — Attraction in Saskatchewan

The $225 bounty hunter tournament was a disgrace to poker. The low chip stack (7000) and twenty min blinds made it feel like you were being rushed out. It didn’t help that they told us in the opening statement that they double booked the room and they needed us to be finished by 11pm. The dealers had trouble making change, the opening statement was 20 mins long and the mic wasn’t working so it was hard to hear. General rules were thrown out the window. One break they forgot to start the timer and the break was 25 mins instead of 15, there were no dealers when the timer ended and no 3 min speaker call for the players. The bounty pot was $7600 while first place was $3200. The food service was terrible at the bar, I ordered and the lady behind me got her food before I do. I had to ask for her to help me. I was told I can’t talk to anyone in the tournament at other tables, as well everybody working the tournament had different answers. You did the impossible and made the Dakota dunes look good regarding tournaments. I would have given “0”...

I like the actual casino - it has good machines but the one thing is the smoking. It is utterly, utterly, utterly disgusting. I cannot believe in this day and age knowing what we know about the danger of smoking that it is tolerated and allowed. Shame on the owners! They are putting all their staff at grave risk but patently they don't care! It is a shame because it is a lovely facility and we visit it when we are on the road but quick visits because of the smoke and danger to our health but it is so gross and we stink when we come out. If smoking has to be allowed (and really it should not be) then be respectful to humanity and move the smoking section to the tiny non-smoking section you presently have so that there can at least be some barriers. You can smell the stench outside before you even go in. Other than that though it is a decent casino, it offers good snacks and the staff are very nice. Too bad the management do not respect the health of its staff and...

After my experience and talking to some people at the casino, save your money! I have seen some big wins when I was there but they all had one thing in common. I think my type get the occasional good win but any big win isn't by anyone of European descent. Call me racist or whatever you want, i know what i have seen. That is pretty much the consensus across the board with any of my friends that go there. Time for all of us to stay out of there. Let them profit off their own. The best thing about this casino is the staff working the floor, but even great people can't make up for what I have seen. It's so bad lately I am surprised Indians even come here anymore! Legal theft is all it is to line pockets of those in charge. Worse even than I can imagine if it's as rigged as the games. I wish people would stay out and drive these crooked ...
