This is only a review of the Flamingo CASINO:
I've never stayed at the Flamingo before. But my boyfriend and I are huge fans of the movie "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" and thought it would be fun to walk in and see the casino with a few of our friends. We went in, and as expected, everything was PINK! We walked around looking for a blackjack table and found an empty table for $10 a hand. Our dealer's name was James and I think he might have been Filipino, but we had the best gambling experience here! James was awesome and so much fun and all 4 of us walked away with over $100 in winnings!
Tips: our table dealt out of a card shoe, which in my opinion, makes the game of blackjack better when the dealer doesn't keep putting back the old cards into a shuffling machine. Instead, they play the entire show (6 decks) and when it is out, they hand shuffle all the cards and put them back in the shoe. Not only does this allow for an easier way to keep track of how many face cards and aces are dealt, but while the dealer is shuffling a new shoe, it allows for more time to be spent at the table with your friends and chatting with the dealer. The game we played was called Lucky Ladies which means that you also have a chance to bet a minimum of $1 that you'll get a total of 20 with your first 2 cards. Depending on how your cards are suited, you can win a few extra dollars that way too. It sounds like a stupid thing to bet on, but once you kind of get into it, it is a lot of fun to play! Drink service at this casino is also very good which helped all 4 of us have a good time while making money.
5 stars for our dealer James who made sure we had a good time and because we all won a lot of money!
