Gambling Places In Louisiana

Posted on  by

With more than 1,500 slots, over 30 table games and seven poker tables, this 24-hour casino serves up a satisfying gumbo of gambling options. That's not to mention Boomtown's five standout restaurants, which include the Bayou Market Buffet, a delightful smorgasbord of fresh, local seafood and high quality meats. Located only 13 miles outside the city, Boomtown affords Big Easy visitors big thrills and easy fun for an experience that doesn't disappoint.

The comparison to Vegas makes sense given the sheer number and size of Louisiana's casinos, along with all the well-known entertainment provided alongside hot games. But gaming is not just about casinos here. With four horse-racing tracks in the state, the ponies get their fair share of attention. Louisiana was the fourth state to approve riverboat casino gam­bling and its 1991 gambling law allows a maximum of 15 boats statewide. In 1992 a provi­sion was added for one land-based casino in New Orleans.
