Sortis Hotel And Casino

I’ve gambled at several casinos around town, and in just three hours I saw more 0s and 00s on this roulette table than in my whole roulette gambling career. At one point, there were as many as three showing on the history chart. Still, I had fun. The free drinks while gambling were nice, and they give you free chips with your first buy-in.

There’s plenty here: lots of space and slots, baccarat, blackjack, roulette, Texas Hold'em table games, bingo, a sports book, and a big poker room. The blackjack experience was awful. Dealers and pit bosses let players constantly beg others for money and talk trash to strangers. I didn’t know anyone at my table and had no interest in giving them money. Several people repeatedly asked me for $5 chips, and I refused each time, saying I didn’t speak Spanish so they’d stop. When I was betting $300 and winning, players yelled at me for not giving them money because they were hitting or standing on their $5 hands. The pit boss watched and let it go. It was very unprofessional, and I won’t play here again. All the blackjack tables run from $5 to $300 and use continuous shuffle machines. One more thing: table game cash-outs are taxed at 5.5%, including your own money. That encourages people to buy in $20 at a time to avoid tax on a bigger buy-in. So dumb. I believe it’s a terrible national law.

For anyone wondering, as of June 2023 there’s a poker room with daily Texas Hold'em and PLO games, both cash games and tournaments.

The place was nice, but I had to pay tax on my own money.
