I love me some dives. This place is run down, falling apart, smells like an ashtray's armpit, and is otherwise a sign of the end times. But it has cheap drinks (they even have one of the giant take-home cups for $7), the funniest bartenders on the entire strip, and the biggest collection of freaks at the tables. It is just neat to be able to play and literally watch people walking by on the strip. If you want run-down w/ worse lighting and crappier service, you can go next door to circus circus or cross the street to riviera.
