Harrah's Northern California

[BillC444]

This new Harrah’s casino opened on Monday, April 29 in Ione, California. It’s in out in the country a long hour from Sacramento down very winding roads. You shouldn’t attempt this trip without a map or navigation in your car. There is no hotel.

Video poker is $10 per tier credit. There are a few dozen video poker machines
ranging from 5 cent Ultimate X to $1 10 play.
No $2 or $5 machines, no high limit room. None of the video poker including the $1 machines have paybacks higher
than 97% (e.g. 6/5 bonus poker). There
is no hotel. This

casino appears to be designed only for people living in the immediate area.

Ione is famous for a boys reform school. Originally it was a “castle” in the 1800s, a brutal history. Later they built the more modern Preston School of Industry, built for the worst wards of the Youth Authority, sort of an “end of the road” kind of place. It’s closed now, but now there is a modern adult prison, Mule Creek. So it’s a “prison town”, with a lot of history. I think they had a card room or two also.
