The casino includes 2220 gaming machines, 72 poker and blackjack tables, off-track horse-race betting, restaurants, bars and a theatre.

"We have the latest and newest games, and our goal is to create a quality experience unlike anything our customers have ever seen in Oklahoma," said Chickasaw Enterprises CEO Brian Campbell. "We're trying to achieve a Las Vegas-style experience."
