Seated at a Texas holdem' table with friends is the only way I like to gamble, but if Casinos are your thing, come here and have a night of it... Just don't blame me if you lose your money!

This isn't typically the sort of place I would frequent. It's a tourist trap. However, you have got to at least take a peak in there, or have one drink if you've got the time.

This is the place to go if you're in the mood for exceptional cocktails and a New Orleans night to remember. There is a bar that rotates on a carousel. Drinks are not cheap here, but it's worth it.
