If you wish to play roulette at Argosy, the American largest riverboat casino, you’ve got to have a lot of patience, especially on Saturday nights, which are the busiest ones. Players might wait over an hour in line till they are allowed on board, to spin the roulette wheel, or drop quarters in the slots.
Every Saturday, about 14,500 gamblers slip on board in search for the roulette rush, and when they take their leave, approximately $1.2 million are left behind. The majority of visitors come from the adjacent Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. Some say that if taking only Friday or Saturday nights, the number of people at this casino complex would supercede the entire city.
Nearly a decade after Argosy was launched, coupled with two other riverboat casinos, Indiana became the 12th richest gambling resort of 48 in the nation. Grand Victoria & Resort and Belterra Casino Resort grossed close to $735 million last year.
