considering it was the first time I played it and it was something new I didn't mind it.
will have to see how I would go if I played it more often.


I just wish they brought the horses back to the casino

Cant believe that they got rid of the horse machine. I know when I worked there that they had major issues with the magnets

Looking forward to hitting the roulette table

When are they going to bring in the pokerpro tables (like in melbourne), I have heard they have had these stored upstairs for some time now.

it was the same as texas holdem except you all played against the dealer.

and you could put chips on a button and fi you got a certain hand on the flop you would get a jackpot.

it was near the entrance with all the atms


bonus holdem

horrible game. please never play it again unless you hate money


If Johno is referring to the game I'm thinking of, it's different to the Bonus Holdem. More I think about it, I reckon it was Mississippi Stud or something similar.

Ha Ha, completely agree. Its TERRIBLE !!!!! Still plenty more renovations to go i think BUT just seems to be 1 big pokie parlor now. Iconic games like Poker have been destroyed. Only a matter of time that Poker disappears all together.

Also anyone that plays any of those table variations of Poker, Caribbean stud, Bonus Holdem, Mississippi Stud or what ever their names are really has no respect for money at all. They are criminal those games. Odds are atrocious. Its just the lure of the Jackpots that get people sucked in. Bit like X Lotto.

I love Carribbeam Stud, but shouldn't be playing it - think it runs at %18.

2nd worst return to punters behind the Chocolate Wheel apparently.

Yeah, i used to play it a bit back then for a bit of fun but then they got greedy and put it up to $10 which is effectively $30 a hand and also $2.50 for the jackpot. Farrrrrk that !!!!!!!!!

As for the money wheel, what a farrrrrrking joke that is now they've lowered all the odds . 47 to 45, 23 to 20, 11 to 10.
And they still get suckers playing it FFS.
