[Gene Nielsen]

1. The Bellagio - 3600 Las Vegas Blvd. Strip, Las Vegas, NV 89109
Folks, there's a reason why this casino was featured in the film
Ocean's 11. It's the jewel in the crown of Las Vegas casinos, and it
will provide you with an elegant and upscale experience which is
second to none. The poker room is luxurious and has become a hotspot
for fans of 7 Card Stud. Many of the gaming tables are set off in semi-
secluded rooms, giving players a more intimate setting in which to
gamble. From the elegant light fixtures to the expensive upholstery on
the furniture, everything about the Bellagio is high class.
2. Caesar's Palace - 3570 Las Vegas Blvd. Strip, Las Vegas, NV 89109
This classic casino has two wings to meet the needs of the wide
variety of gamblers who pass through her doors. The older wing caters
to experienced and high-priced gamblers, while the Olympic Casino
appeals to the player on a budget. But whatever your taste, Caesar's
will more than meet your gaming needs with over two-thousand slot and
video poker machines, blackjack and craps tables, as well as roulette
wheels and many other games. Their sports book room accommodates over
650 people, with 38 high-tech screens covering the walls. And then
there's the architecture. With its famous marble columns and vaulted
ceilings, Caesar's Palace draws in many people who just want to look
around. Whatever category you fall into, you will not be disappointed.
