one is named coconuts and the other is flip flops. living near atlantic city, they come up short of being considered a casino! they are places where you can win/lose money though! since i don't gamble with my $ i have never visited them - but hubs does. it sounds to me like you buy a 'phone card' and use that to 'play' with...the games are played on laptop computers. the amounts that can be bet are considerably smaller that vegas/a.c. stakes - sorta like playing the penny and nickel slots. winnings and losses are compiled via the card and you can keep money on the card or cash out when desired [or 'refill' the card if/when needed!]. there are a couple of others further north on 441 and one in fruitland park [i think] - but you need a car to get to those - coconuts and flip flops are golf cart accessible by using the dirt 'track' out of the country club hills village area. lots of locals enjoy the entertainment.
