Foxwood Bingo Games
Foxwoods is a unique resort/gaming destination set in the beautiful woods of Connecticut, but still close to dozens of Connecticut’s other vacation attractions. It has something to offereveryone including fine dining, major entertainment, golf, shopping, and of course some of the best gambling in New England.
The sprawling resort has been a work in progress since its beginning and every time they expand it is like a new casino has been added. In fact, their web site proclaims that they have sixcasinos within the property.

Foxwoods Resort Casino and the new MGM Grand at Foxwoods
The original Rainmaker, Grand Pequot, MGM Grand at Foxwoods, and the Newport casinos offer table games and slots. There are also slot-only casinos, including a non-smoking casino. All of the“casinos” are connected and you never have to wander outside. However, be prepared to walk about a mile if you want to go from one end of the property to the other.

All of the traditional table games are offered at Foxwoods. The only drawback is that during crowded weekends and holidays the table limits are raised and many times you will be hard-pressed tofind any tables with minimum bets under $15. Unfortunately, Foxwoods does not “grandfather” a player in at their starting limits so if the table limits are raised you have to either raise yourbets or leave the table.
Blackjack
Foxwoods offers mostly eight-deck games with good rules. You can find some six-deck games in the high stakes Newport casino and the high stakes area in the MGM casino. The blackjack rules atFoxwoods are double down on any two cards, double down allowed after splitting, dealer stands on soft 17 (six and an ace) and they are now offering late surrender. You cannot re-split aces.
Craps
If you like “rolling the bones,” then you will find that Foxwoods is one of the best places to play craps. All of their tables are 12-feet long and they offer 3-4-5 times odds on all of theirgames. On points of 6 or 8, players are allowed to make an odds bet equal to 5 times their pass/don't pass bet. Points of 5 or 9 allow a 4 times odds bet, and points of 4 or 10 allow a 3 timesodds bet. They also added the “fire bet” to all of their craps games. A player can make a side wager that will pay them if they make four five or six individual points during their roll.
Slots
There are 7,400 slot machines at Foxwoods and the average payback for the quarter slots is around 91 percent. You can find slots in any denomination from the penny slots to the $100 high rollerslots. All of the machines are “ticket in ticket out” so you do not have to handle coins. They offer all of the newest slots along with several wide-area progressive games.
Video Poker - The only disappointment with the gambling at Foxwoods is their selection of video poker games. Unfortunately, Foxwoods is a video poker wasteland. You might be able to find one ortwo 9/6 Jacks or Better games at the $1 or higher denominations, but there are no full-pay games at the quarter level. You would think that one of the largest casinos in the country would offerdecent video poker games, but that is not the case.
Poker
Foxwoods has a WPT (World Poker Tour) branded poker room with 104 tables. They hold two major tournaments a year that are stops on the WPT tour which are recorded and televised. You can playTexas Holdem, Omaha and 7-Card Stud 24/7 at any limits. Foxwoods also offers daily poker tournaments as well as satellite tournaments where you can win an entry into one of their major events.

Bingo
Foxwoods still maintains its roots with a bingo hall that seats 3,600 players. It is the only place in New England and one of the very few casinos in the country that still offers high stakesgames.
Racebook
Foxwoods has a state-of-the-art racebook where you can bet on horses, dogs, or jai-alai. Races are shown on a 50-foot, high-resolution screen. There are also 200 individual betting stationsequipped with 12-inch touchscreens for personal viewing. Due to Federal law, sports betting is not legal at Foxwoods.

MASHANTUCKET, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A former Mashantucket Pequot Chairman and visionary behind Foxwoods® High-Stakes Bingo and Foxwoods Resort Casino, Richard A. “Skip” Hayward, was inducted into the American Gaming Association’sHall of Fame yesterday as an Industry Pioneer—a distinction considered to be one of the gaming industry’s highest honors. Hayward’s vision and determination pioneered the way for today’s Indian Gaming industry—with over 480 tribal gaming operations generating nearly $30 billion each year.
Hayward served as the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation’s Chairman for 23 years (1975 – 1998), and then Vice Chairman for an additional 6 years. He led the effort to gain state recognition for the Mashantucket Pequots in 1974, followed by federal recognition in 1983, which was enacted by Congress and signed by President Ronald Reagan. Hayward’s efforts paved the way for community development planning on the reservation.
“Skip Hayward is the type of visionary that most people never encounter, and he’s incredibly deserving of this award,” says Rodney Butler, Chairman of the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation. “With tenacious zeal, Skip led the effort to develop a thriving community through a vision focused on preserving Pequot history and culture for many generations. That vision was realized through the development of Foxwoods Resort Casino. On behalf of the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Council, we send Skip our heartfelt congratulations and gratitude for his leadership, dedication, and determination.”
After pursuing several business options to help secure the tribe’s economic stability, Hayward championed the construction of a High Stakes Bingo Hall, which opened in 1986 and far exceeded revenue projections by generating nearly $30 million per year. Following the Bingo success, Hayward secured the investment capital to construct the first full-service casino ever built on an Indian reservation--Foxwoods Resort Casino.
During the late eighties’ economic recession, the Mashantucket Pequot High Stakes Bingo Hall and Foxwoods Resort Casino resulted in hundreds of construction jobs and more than ten thousand new employment positions. Throughout much of the nineties, Foxwoods remained the largest and most profitable casino in the western hemisphere. Today, it is North America’s largest--reaching a 25th Anniversary milestone in February, 2017.

To date, the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation has contributed nearly $4 billion to the State of Connecticut through a first-of-its-kind slot revenue sharing agreement, which became an example for similar agreements nationwide. The Tribe also provided millions of dollars to non-profit charities and social service organizations throughout the local area since 1992. And it all began with Skip:

Richard A. “Skip” Hayward Acceptance Speech
Tonight I wish to thank this year's Board of the American Gaming Association and all its members for the privilege of being inducted into the AGA Gaming Hall of Fame. This is an award that I never expected, and an honor I could never have imagined when I started down the path to preserve my Grandmother's home and our ancestral land and to bring Mashantucket Pequots home to build a successful and stable community -- one that is founded on our shared history, culture and unity.
That path has led me to this evening, and the privilege of being chosen to stand with past inductees to recognize and honor our industry. While for me it has always been, and always will be, about my Tribe, Foxwoods Resort Casino has been the engine which has driven our prosperity and our economic development.
When you pioneer a vision to do something no one has done before, it is impossible to predict how things will turn out. This journey has been long and challenging -- with many extraordinary rewards and unexpected outcomes. But, as I reflect back on everything, I am deeply honored to have experienced it all, and to have experienced it with you as part of this industry. Thank you again for this honor, and may God bless you all.

As the first Native Americans to survive a genocidal massacre (1637) in what would become the continental United States, Pequot history is an unprecedented story of redemption and restoration, featured at the world-class Mashantucket Pequot Museum & Research Center (www.pequotmuseum.org). As pioneers of today’s Indian Gaming industry, the Mashantucket Pequots own and operate the first Class III gaming enterprise ever built on an Indian Reservation, Foxwoods Resort Casino (www.foxwoods.com ), which is also the largest in North America. The Tribe’s other businesses include Lake of IslesGolf Course (www.lakeofisles.com), Pequot Pharmaceutical Network (www.prxn.com), and The Spa at Norwich Inn (www.thespaatnorwichinn.com). All together, the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation is one of Connecticut’s largest employers and highest taxpayers, having contributed nearly $4 billion dollars to the state through the first-ever tribal slot revenue sharing agreement (est. 1993) and hundreds of millions in donations and sponsorships to support charities throughout New England.
