Casino gambling is a reasonable entertainment for seniors if you have a budget and strictly adheres it. After my wife and I retired in Northern California, our entertainment budget was reduced, thus we could barely afford attending Broadway shows, movies or expensive restaurants. Lucky for us, Thunder Valley(TV) Casino is only about 20 minutes drive. The Casino offers discount for seniors in several of the restaurants as well as enjoyed the latest high-tech slot machines that Macrine and I enjoy so much. There is another Casino, Red Hawk,(RH),that is about 8 miles farther. However, Macrine and I feel that the slots machines in TV are programmed so that the odds of the players winning is more favorable than the slots in RH( or in Casino Filipino in Paranaque, Philippines).
Casino gambling may be addictive. But if you have a reasonable budget, it is one of the most affordable entertainment for senior citizens,like us.
Here is the latest news on the expansion of TV Casino. We do not have to drive to Lake Tahoe or Reno, or fly to Las Vegas, Nevada to enjoy a world class casino and its amenities that fits our entertainment budget.
LINCOLN, Calif. – Thunder Valley Casino Resort opened a new steakhouse, poker room and expanded gaming space May 7 in advance of the grand opening of its new hotel, pool and spa July 1.
