Gambling on MSC Magnifica?

[mahondi2389]

Does anyone have experience in gambling on the Magnifica? If so, can you tell me what they have available in the way of table games? Any info would be helpful if you can pass it on like: what are the hours of the casino; how crowded was it; see any big winners; how many tables; do they play things like 3 card poker or let it ride; anything you could provide would be great!!!!!;)

Hi,

 

I don't have any personal experience in the Magnifica casino, but some great photos have been posted here before from the christening in Germany. Here is the main link to that thread:

These pictures from the casino may help you out a little bit (also taken by the German Schiffgiganten):

I assume you would be gambling using Euro's in the machines or tables???

Everything onboard the Magnifica, including the casino, is done in the Euro.

The casino, however, is the only place where cash is taken rather than the room card. My husband played roulette - lots of fun, no profits - and I played a bit on the slot machines - same result. The Casino is medium sized, about as smokey as one would expect and on our cruise - April 24 - May 1 - not overly crowded at all.
