You are absolutely right about Harrahs Cherokee. I live in central NC and Cherokee is the only land based casino within driving distance (about 4 hours away ) They have no competition so they don't need loose slots. I last went to Cherokee in July 2008 and I will not go back again unless they loosen their slots considerably or add real live table games or live poker. My guess is their slot payouts is 75% or less, based on my last 3 or 4 visits. You can do much better in Mississippi or Atlantic City.
