Types of Casinos in New York

There are four different types of casinos in New York: regular Class III casinos (such as those found in Nevada and New Jersey); Class III Indian casinos; Class II Indian casinos; and pari-mutuel casinos. There are some distinct differences among these New York casinos and they are explained below.

REGULAR CASINOS (Class III)

There are four regular Class III casinos in New York state. All of these New York casinos offer regular table games, such as: blackjack, roulette, craps and baccarat, as well as slots and video poker. The minimum gambling age is 21 at all of these New York casinos and all are open 24 hours, except for Tioga Downs.

INDIAN CASINOS (Class III)

There are five Indian casinos located in upstate New York which offer traditional Class III casino gambling.

All of these casinos are open 24 hours and offer the table games as well as electronic gaming machines. The minimum gambling age is 21 at the three Seneca casinos and 18 at the other two casinos. No public information is available concerning the payback percentages on any gaming machines in New York’s Indian casinos.

INDIAN CASINOS (Class II)

There are some Indian casinos that offer Class II gambling which consist of electronic gaming machines which look like slot machines, but are actually games of bingo and the spinning video reels are for “entertainment purposes only.” No public information is available concerning the payback percentages on the video gaming machines.

PARI-MUTUEL CASINOS

In October 2001, legislation was passed to allow for the introduction of slot machine-type video lottery machines at New York racetracks. Officially referred to as Video Gaming Machines (VGM’s), they are regulated by the New York State Lottery Division.

The VGM’s do not operate like regular slot machines. Instead, they are similar to scratch-off-type lottery tickets with a pre-determined number of winners.

If you are looking for casinos in Manhattan, then you will be disappointed. But, there is one in a neighboring borough. It is Resorts World Casino New York City and it is located in Queens.

All Video Gaming Machine facilities are allowed to be open for 20 hours and day, with varying hours. Some are open 8am-4am, some are open 9am-5am, etc. and all are non-smoking. The minimum gambling age is 18 for playing VGM’s, as well as for pari-mutuel betting.

Tioga Downs is located 30 miles south of the Finger Lakes in Nichols, New York.

Tioga Downs has been a home to harness racing since 1976. It later became a racino by adding slot machines. In 2016 Tioga Downs invested $160 million to add a hotel and convert the racino into a destination resort.

The new hotel features 150 guest rooms and 11 suites. The conversion project also added a new restaurant, a 2,000-ft, full-service spa and two rooftop decks. Construction was finished in late 2017 with a grand opening in December 2017.
