Holdenville Creek Nation Casino is a small, friendly, locals-oriented casino with slot payouts that “feel” reasonably loose. Although their promotions are declining in recent months (match play opportunities keep getting fewer/smaller, and they no longer offer free play on their Sunday “customer appreciation day” as of October 2012) Pixie and I try to visit whenever they offer match play. Security is very good, the parking lot is heavily monitored, the “tweaker factor” is fairly low, and all-in-all, it’s just a pleasant place to gamble. We especially appreciate that they seem to add new machines fairly often. Once or twice we’ve even seen a new machine here before we saw it at any other Oklahoma casino.

Our current [Oct. 2012] favorite machines: Crystal Forest, Skee-Ball, Shadow Of The Panther

November 2012 update: Unfortunately, the Holdenville Creek Nation Casino has earned an entry on the wall of shame for failing to honor one of its advertised promotions.
