Florida has seven Indian Gaming Locations
- Seminole Tribe has six
- Miccosukee Tribe has one
The only games allowed are class II games where players
compete against each oather rather then against the
casino. Games allowed are high-stakes bingo, video
pull tabs, low limit poker games. Low limit poker can
be found in many of Florida's parimutuel facilities,
including horse tracks, dog tracks, jai-alai frontons,
and harness tracks.
The Indian casinos also offer class II video gaming
devices that look like slot machines but are really
bingo games. The spinning reels are for entertainment
purposes only.
All casinos except brighton are open 24 hours a day.
The Brighton Casino is open six days a week.
Per the Florida Day Cruise Association there were 17
casino boats operating in Florida as of November 2004.
By October of 2005 that number was reduced to 12 or 13.
