Every town in Panama of any size has at least one casino. Chitre has three that I know of, and a bingo hall. The biggest, and best is the Fiesta Casino next to Hotel Guayacanes. It boasts live table games, not just slots. They offer blackjack, roulette and pai gow poker tables. They tried Texas Hold 'Em but couldn't get enough interest, so it has been dropped. There are plenty of slots from 1-cent to one dollar. There are a lot of penny slots.
The Casino has a decent restaurant, their nachos are very good, albeit expensive. The drinks are fairly reasonable, I can get a bottle of Cerveza Panama for a dollar, that includes the 10 per cent tax.
They have the huge screen TVs that play sports 24/7, and they have live music at times, usually on weekends, or when there are festivals, which is fairly often.
This casino is fairly new, opened in 2007, along with Hotel Guaycanes.
Dress Code: Men are not allowed to wear shorts or muscle (sleeveless) shirts in the casino.

The City of Chitre is the most vivid city in the central part of the Republic of Panama. Excellent for hotels, restaurants, good shopping or just to visit.
