Sure, Las Vegas is known for its casinos. But just because Sin City has the highest concentration, that doesn’t mean it has a monopoly on gambling.

Been to the Peppermill and Atlantis in Reno. Very nice, good buffets, and reasonable rates.

The best gamble I ever took was a good job. I really didn’t lose that much to the government.

Nothing wrong with gambling. Even the Founders played the lottery to fund the Continental Army.

I much prefer Reno to Vegas. My wife and I had a lot of fun there. More “buttoned down”, if you know what I mean. And we too, enjoyed the Peppermill.

How’d they miss the Beau Rivage in Biloxi Mississippi aka the Redneck Riviera? Just like a half size Belagio. Great even if you aren’t a gambler.

Gambling should be a voluntary activity not like the government does with Social Security and boarder control.

Nothing quite like driving down I-15 at night going through the mountain pass and seeing Primm in the valley below; the equivalent of a shot of caffeine to perk you up.

We stayed in Nipton one night, and I got up at 3:00am to gaze at the stars. I looked up towards the northeast and could see the shining lights of Buffalo Bill’s Casino, almost 50 miles away, LOL.

Nipton, You didn't run into this guy did you?

Tadslos, you don't have to worry about Caravan with me, I never did figure out that mini-game.

I worked at Harvey’s (No.11) for 5 years back in the 80’s. I started in slots as a change person and eventually worked up to a 21 and craps dealer. Tahoe is a beautiful place with some of the best scenery in the world. The only month I never saw it snow there was August. And that’s because they told me I wasn’t there the year it snowed in August....I will say that the first time you see ten feet of snow at one time it will bring you up short. But when you see the snow capped mountains reflected in the lake like a mirror, you understand why they call it “God’s Country.”

I admire the craps dealers for having to know the proper pay outs on all potential bets. I get a headache keeping track with the basic bets. LOL!

Boycott Nevada until the mob removes Harry Reid from the senate.

One of the best new casinos in America is in N. California about 40 miles north of San Francisco.

Support our Native Americans’s casinos instead the mob’s in Nevada and Harry Reid.
