Summary
Since the casino opened in 1999, it has drawn a small number of tourists into this city, though far fewer than was first predicted since numerous other casinos have been opened nearby and slot machines have been added to area racetracks.
A small portion of the profits from this, and other Ontario charity casinos, goes to the Trillium Foundation which metes out the funds to qualified charities. A small portion of the profits from the slot machines go to the City of Brantford as the facility's host. Casino Brantford has 55 table games including blackjack, baccarat, Let It Ride, Sic Bo, Three card poker, Spanish 21, roulette, and craps. The casino also has numerous slot machines, and a 14-table Texas Hold 'Em poker room.
It is located near the Sanderson Centre for the Performing Arts, an upscale theater.

Famous quotes containing the word summary:
“Product of a myriad various minds and contending tongues, compact of obscure and minute association, a language has its own abundant and often recondite laws, in the habitual and summary recognition of which scholarship consists.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“I have simplified my politics into an utter detestation of all existing governments; and, as it is the shortest and most agreeable and summary feeling imaginable, the first moment of an universal republic would convert me into an advocate for single and uncontradicted despotism. The fact is, riches are power, and poverty is slavery all over the earth, and one sort of establishment is no better, nor worse, for a people than another.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
