Every playing chip has an embedded radio transmitting chip.
The casino itself reminds me a lot of Barona Casino near San Diego.įirst, they have a chip tracking system installed. That's surprising, because the hotel tower is 26 floors, with over 700 rooms. I hear they are sold out for weekends for months ahead. FYI, Midweek Internet rates at the hotel are $79 plus tax. Our room was quite comfortable including perhaps the most comfortable hotel bed I've ever slept on. Every room has a 32' flat-screen TV, high speed internet access, two phones, and AM/FM/CD alarm clocks. My wife described the style as 'cowboy lodge chic', which is pretty accurate. The casino had been open less than a week when I was there, but everything went surprisingly smoothly.įirst, a few notes about the property. On Wednesday June 1st, I checked out the brand-new L'Auberge du Lac casino in Lake Charles Louisiana.
