The Apache Tribe of Oklahoma will open its new casino on Tuesday after gaining approval from the National Indian Gaming Commission.
The Silver Buffalo Casino in Anadarko is the first in the state to be fully "compacted." The state will receive a share of revenues from all of the machines at the facility.
The tribe hired 72 people for the casino but about half of them quit because the casino opening was delayed.
