The dirt-bags, sleazeballs, and slot pervs hang out in this dingy dives for a little ‘action’ either at the tables or among the opposite sex. That’s just a fact of life. But that doesn’t mean you have to suffer through it. There are plenty of high-quality casinos out there….
Here Are Some That Are Not:

Circus Circus
Really? A clown-themed casino? Can you imagine eating some cotton candy while holding onto your royal flush? And in all honesty, if you read any of the reviews for this place, you’ll find that the rooms are filthy — one of the chairs stained with vomit. Maybe it was the cotton candy.
Terrible’s Mark Twain Casino
Look, no one can deny the absolutely rich atmosphere of the traditional American riverboat casino with the big steamboat wheel, and one of the first things you think of is Mark Twain. But, seriously: this one’s not a riverboat. It’s on land. Not to mention apparently the payouts weren’t much. Maybe Tom Sawyer stole all the chips!
Treasure Island Hotel and Casino
This was just plain insulting. Yes, it would make sense to equate gambling with ‘treasure,’ but when you think of a dingy boat, some cannons, and grungy pirates, the last thing you think about is luxury, showgirls, and tons of green. Not gold, green. Classic case of mistaken theme here.
Keep Your Eyes Open
Because there are plenty other crappy casinos out there. People seem to forget that sometimes gambling can actually be luxury entertainment — and not an act of sad desperation, as these terrible dives might portray.
