Seniors Arcade Game

I've been to casino 4 times in the past 2 months. This is kind of unusual considering I'm not in Las Vegas. Anyway, Starlight is new in Richmond/New Westminster - guess it opens only earlier this year. As part of their marketing campaign, they sent value cards, lucky draw entry forms to every household in richmond. We didn't take them seriously at first as we are not gamblers and we don't believe in free lunch.

One time we were feeling lucky after the cash register ringed $7.77 and $2.22 in a row... We decided to go to the casino and try our luck... played a few rounds of slot machine, and won $60 and left right away... we only stayed at the casino for 5mins.

Another time we went was the day after the Moon Festival, and they have free mini moon cakes to give out at the cafe. The taste was ok too. We redeemed the coupons. We can't believe they just give you cash for the coupons. You don't really have to play.

This is not vegas, and we should not think it is. It's crowded, but I mean it's not packed and the atmostphere is different here, people are here to relax and it's almost like a seniors arcade center if you look at the slot machine area. Most people liked to play slots, and you'll only find a few tables open.

The chinese restaurant was good too. New and grand, another reason to go to the casino while waiting for a table at lunch there.
