Many casinos have promotions on holidays and sometimes your odds of winning can be quite good even though most of the time you will find the casino packed on holidays.

On one holiday a while back I was at the Kewadin casino in Christmas and they had a drawing every 15 minutes for a chance to win from $25 up to $500 depending upon which envelope you picked. Of course there was only one with with the $500 prize.

Now Kewadin Christmas is a real small casino and on this Saturday morning at bj opening time there were only about 20 people in the whole casino. You could only register once but they would pick a name every 15 minutes. In the hour and half I was there I had 6 chances to win. Six chances out of 20 people is almost 1 in 3 odds of winning. I must say not bad. Guess what I didn't win.

PS. Don't make Christmas a destination casino if your trip is to play blackjack. They got rid of their 2 deck game and they have the worst pen of all the Kewadin casinos that I played at.
