1. WinStar World Casino | Thackerville, Oklahoma, USA

Size: 600,000 square feet

Number of slots: 7,000+

Table games: 100+

The world’s largest casino isn’t on the Las Vegas Strip, Atlantic City or even in Macau. In fact, it’s in a rather unusual location: Oklahoma.

WinStar opened in the early 1990s as a bingo hall near the Texas border. It expanded in 2003 to include electronic table games and slots, and doubled in size four years later. By this time, the gaming floor at WinStar has stretched to more than 380,000 square feet.

WinStar World Casino is owned and operated by the Chickasaw Nation. It’s just one of two dozen tribal casinos run by the Chickasaws in the United States.

After its latest expansion, the WinStar now features a dedicated high stakes room, a poker room with 55 tables and more than 7,000 slots and electronic games. Table games include American Roulette, Ultimate Texas Hold’em, and U.S. varieties like Mississippi Stud. There is also a large bingo hall on the WinStar site which can hold up to 900 players at once.

With capacity to expand further, don’t be surprised in the Chickasaw Nation continue to cement WinStar’s place as the world’s biggest casino.

The hotel stretches 39 stories, and the gaming floor of 546,000 square feet is unrivalled in Macau. It was the world’s largest casino before being knocked off its perch by WinStar. You can play on any of 2,000 slot machines at the Venetian Macao, or choose from electronic table games like Dragon Tiger Fortune Spin and Fast Action Baccarat.

Away from the giant gaming floor, the Venetian offers fine dining in Portofino and Michelin-starred restaurants like The Golden Peacock.
