Anyone been there?  What's the story on it?  There website doesn't mention video poker but I did see Game King logos...
 
Thanks,

So we stopped there on the way to Ohio.   The Mardi Gras is almost a year old and located on I-64,  just outside of Charleston, WV.
 
Anyway, it pretty much looks like any other casino.  They had plenty of table games and dice.  I did not notice a roulette table though.
 
Now, on to the VP play.   They don't have many machines.  About 10-12 machine carosel and about 10 against a wall.  All machines are Game King.  They have them set to accept up to 20 qtrs.  They are all 6/5 machines and get this, with 5 qtrs in, the Royal only pays 1500 credits!!  I had to increase the bet to 12 qtrs I think before I seen 4200 credits for the Royal!   I don't understand that.  Never seen that before!
 
Needless to say,  I don't recommend this casino for VP.
