staying in a casino- hotel without gambing
Posted: Sun June 14, 2009 05:41 AM UTC
Searching the Internet, I noticed that Deadwood is a casino town. Booking a room in a hotel in Las Vegas is quite anonymous, so no problem when not gambling, but what about booking a room in a small historic Deadwood hotel? Are you supposed to gamble when staying in a casino -hotel such as the Bullock hotel or the Franklin hotel?

No matter how small or huge a casino is, there is NO requirement that you gamble at all. The hotel proprietors probably hope that you would drop a couple of bucks or more but don't feel bad if you don't. Just enjoy the ambience!

Deadwood is a very cute "Wild West" town. There is no requirement that you gamble. I presented a workshop in a meeting room in a casino in Deadwood a few years ago. Some of the participants played the slots on there way in and our and others didn't That is a really pretty area. Enjoy it.

There is no requirement to gamble in Deadwood. We have visited the town twice, we don't gamble, but enjoy the history of the town. My VT pages on Deadwood may be of interest to you if you are planning to explore the history of the area. Some establishments you stay in or eat at may give you coupons to lure you to their gambling activities, but that is as much encouragement as you will get.

Yes, they will kick you out in the middl eof the night if you haven't gambled and lost thousands of dollars to them!

NOT.
