Point Place Casino

Syracuse is a northern New York town tucked about halfway between Buffalo and the Vermont border. This is a thriving sports town, but it’s also home to some of New York’s best land-based casinos. Point Place Casino is one of them, and it is home to hundreds of slot machines, live dealer table games, and a bustling sportsbook.

What Are the Games and Betting Options?

The Oneida Indian Nation operates Point Place. Players enjoy regular live entertainment and several other amenities within the 65,000-square-foot casino. It’s home to more than 450 slot machines and 20 table games. Table games include:

• Beat the Dealer

• Blackjack

• Craps

• Let It Ride

• Spanish 21

• Three Card Poker

There are almost 500 slots on the casino floor. They include bonus slots, progressives, and classics, including titles like these:

• Buffalo Gold

• Heart of Egypt Gold

• Reel of Riches 3D

There is also a selection of high-roller machines where the minimum bet is higher. It does range from one game to the next, but typically you’re spending at least $1 per line.

In addition to the casino game floors, Point Place has a sportsbook. The sportsbook desk is open from noon to 10 p.m. Monday through Friday and 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.

Are Any Promotions Available?

Each Monday, active-duty military members and veterans are entered into drawings for $200 in cash. That’s one of several daily incentives. Each month, a special Tuesday offer is shared and offers $100 in free play or 1,500 TS rewards points. On Monday and Tuesday, all TS Rewards members get $10 in dining credits when playing slots or table games and accumulating 100 points that day.

Wild Wednesday offers 50 slots that you use to win TS rewards points or free play. Saturday also comes with a special promotion where you can win up to $100 in free play or 5,000 TS rewards points. Safety Sunday is one of two Sunday promotions. First, get tripled rewards points when you play slots. Second, players holding a Salute to Service TS reward card get up to $200 if they win at the kiosk from 10 a.m. to 10 pm.

Become a TS Rewards member. If you’re 55 or older, you qualify for up to 2,500 reward points or $500 in free play cash. Another benefit to the TS Rewards program is that you get a 5-cent to 20-cent instant discount on every gallon of gas (up to 20 gallons) purchased at a participating Maple Leaf Market or SavOn store.
