our history
The Quapaw Nation are descendants of a tribe of Native Americans who historically resided on the west side of the Mississippi River in what is now the state of Arkansas.
Several hundred years ago, the Quapaw were a division of a larger group known as the Dhegiha Sioux. They split into the tribes known today as the Quapaw, Osage, Ponca, Kansa, and Omaha when they left the Ohio Valley.

The Quapaw moved down the Mississippi River into Arkansas, displacing the Tunica and the Illinois. This is the origin of the word 'Ugaxpa' (“Ugakhpa”), as the Quapaw were known to other tribes, which means (roughly) 'the downstream people.'
The downstream people settled in the area where the Arkansas River met the Mississippi, where the meandering of the two massive rivers had deposited nutrient-rich soil conducive to farming. They settled into four villages at the mouth of the Arkansas River. This is where the Quapaw stayed until they were pushed out by Euro-Americans several hundred years later.
Today, many members of the Quapaw Nation live in Ottawa County, Oklahoma. Their language is of the Dhegiha branch of the Siouan language family. Although it is no longer spoken, it is documented in fieldnotes from 19th-century linguist James Owen Dorsey, and, in the 1970's, by linguist Robert Rankin.

Roulette are now live at Downstream Casino Resort.
Buffalo Run Casino Oklahoma
All Players must purchase roulette chips from the dealer before they can start play. The dealer will give each player a specific chip color so each player’s wagers are separate from each other. The chip value depends on what the player purchases. When the patron is ready to leave the Roulette Table, they must redeem their chips for cashable chips at the roulette table.
Game Play: You can place wagers by placing colored chips on the Roulette Table. The object of the game is to correctly guess where a small white ball will land on a Roulette Wheel. Then, as wagers are being placed, the Dealer spins the Roulette Wheel in one direction. As the wheel spins, the Dealer drops the small white ball in a way that will make the ball travel in the opposite direction of the Roulette Wheel. Wagers may be placed until the Dealer announces “No More Bets.” When the ball drops from the track onto the Roulette Wheel and finally rests into a Roulette Wheel segment, the Dealer calls out the winning number and places a marker on it. After the winning number is announced, the Dealer clears the losing wagers and pays out the winning wagers. Patrons: Please do not remove winning wagers or place new bets until all winners have been paid. After the Roulette Table is cleared, the Dealer announces “Place Your Bets,” signaling the beginning of a new game.
