North Carolina has one Native Indian casino. In August 1994 the state’s Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians signed an agreement with the governor to allow some form of video gambling with jackpots of up to $25,000. According to the terms of the agreement the video machines must be games of skill and they are also required to return a minimum of 83% and a maximum of 98%.
No table games are offered at the Cherokee Casino, only video slots, video poker, and video versions of craps and blackjack. The slots are different than slots you will find in other casinos because of the required 'skill' factor. This usually is in the form of a 'Hold' option; that is, you have two opportunities to spin the reels: after seeing the results of your first spin you then have to decide whether to keep none, one, two, or all three of the symbols on each reel before you spin them again.
The casino is normally open 24 hours and the minimum gambling age is 21.
