As you can see from my location, I'm in gambling Mecca. I generally don't enjoy gambling. But I enjoy winning and I enjoy free drinks. My stake is almost never over $40, so my game changes depending on why I'm playing.
If I'm playing to win, it's usually dollar slots. The house take is almost always below 5%, so the odds of winning are just as good as a table game (sometimes better). I pop in my money, and set my limits at 100%. If I ever get up or down 100%, I walk away. This is my way for beating the "theory of ruin." (I'll be happy to explain the theory for those unfamiliar with it.) On those slots, it generally doesn't matter where you play because the payouts are all the same.
If I'm playing for drinks, which is most of the time, I prefer low limit table games where my money can sit out there for a while. Quarter craps is the best, but quarter roulette will also do. These games I try to play where the cocktail service is best. On the strip, you can't beat Imperial Palace for the combination of speed and beauty. Off the strip, my favorite place is called the Jokers Wild. There is a cocktail waitress there named Ladonna who is freakin' gorgeous. And she bring the drinks like lightning. Just be sure to tip at least $1-2 per drink.
