Top Casinos in Oklahoma City Area
Casinos in Oklahoma: Though it’s not quite Las Vegas, the Oklahoma City metro area has a number of casinos, as state law allows them on Native American tribal land. With a variety of gaming options available, here is a listing of the major Oklahoma City casinos with information on the types of table and electronic games offered as well as details on entertainment, bars, dining and more.
All casinos in Oklahoma are affiliated with Indian Tribes and they are allowed to offer both Class II and Class III gaming machines. Most Oklahoma casinos offer only Class II machines which look like slot machines, but are actually games of bingo and the spinning video reels are for “entertainment purposes only.” Some of the casinos in Oklahoma also offer traditional Class III slots.
In either case, the gaming machines are not allowed to accept or payout in coins. All payouts must be done by a printed receipt or via an electronic debit card. No public information is available concerning the payback percentages on gaming machines at casinos in Oklahoma.
