Gambling in Reno, Nevada |
| |
Nevada is known for its grand resort and casino locations that continue to draw tourists, entrepreneurs and the most hopeful of gamblers from around the world. But often when tourists think of visiting Nevada for gambling, they immediately turn to Las Vegas. Although Vegas has a great deal to offer visitors as far as gambling goes, so does its smaller sister city, Reno, located north and west of Las Vegas, in the far Western region of the state, almost to California. This is a great option for those Californians who live in the upper half of the state, as it is only a two hour drive from Sacramento. Even from Eugene, OR, the trip to Reno is only 8 hours by car or a quick hour long trip by plane.
Since Reno is still in the famous American gambling state which made Las Vegas famous, all of the same gambling rules apply. This means 24 hour casinos, a 21 age limit, and an unlimited number of gambling games including sportsbook betting. Many of the most popular games are similar to those in Vegas, such as craps, roulette game, blackjack, baccarat, poker slots, keno, and of course the most popular of all, the poker room. Almost all of the poker rooms at the larger casinos in Reno offer Texas Hold’em, 5 card draw, 7 card stud, Omaha and a variety of smaller games at varying casinos.
Voted Reno’s best hotel and casino, if you plan to visit Reno anytime soon, you can’t miss visiting the Peppermill Hotel Casino. With over 1,000 rooms, 14 themed bars and lounges, eight exquisite restaurants, a heated waterfall pool, a free nightly cabaret, and an assortment of gambling from Keno to Pai Gow as well as sportsbetting and even live poker tournaments. Right in the heart of downtown Reno, surrounded by a gorgeous mountainous view, the Peppermill is a must see in Reno.
Of course there are a variety of other famous hotel casinos in Reno, including Circus Circus, Harrah’s, the Silver Legacy, Eldorado Hotel and Casino and Atlantis Reno. While the Atlantis, Circus Circus and Harrah’s are similar to those in the largest Nevada city of Las Vegas, the Eldorado and the Silver Legacy are special to Reno. The Silver Legacy is an upscale establishment that offers poker tournaments on 85 game tables and over 2,000 slot machines. The Silver Legacy also offers sports betting and race betting as well as luxurious accommodations, a spa and fitness center, over 10 bars and restaurants and upscale retail shops for those who want to indulge in new purchase during their visit.
Be sure to also stop by the Eldorado Hotel and Casino, right in the heart of Reno as well. This down to earth casino offers over 1,800 slot machines, a separate Keno room, table games, a poker room and a nightly cabaret for enjoying while you are playing. There is a high limits area as well, but the Eldorado seems to be a more down to earth place that has stayed around in Reno because of its friendly service and affordable prices at the casino and the hotel.
