Vacation Spots with great casinos

Aight fellow degenerate poker players and other monekys.

I haven't used a single vacation day so I'm trying to use some before the end of the year. Been thinking about couple categories, but all of them are centered around casinos because I want to play some poker. I'm open to suggestions on specific spots, hotels, etc...

Overall I'm thinking about taking off a week or a little less and spending $5000 max (maybe that's not realistic?).

Thanks to Covid, my options are limited but here it goes.


1) Somewhere in the Caribbean. Heard there are couple nice all inclusive resorts with casinos. But too many options and I can't tell the difference. Will be traveling solo.


2) Hit up Vegas. I was originally planning on playing in couple low stakes WSOP games but you know Coivd happened... If I go this route, I'll be convincing my poker buddy from college to tag along. Downside, not sure if it's safe COVID wise.


3) Macau. Heard it's open for business. Will be traveling solo or with the said friend. Downside, don't want to blow up 2 grand on a flight and end up sleeping through all of it thanks to jet lag.

Thanks.

 

Atlantis used to have a poker tourney every year from 2005 - 2019 called the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure. It would be pretty cool to play there.

I've never been and it's definitely a no go with COVID but Macau I've heard is incredible. 45 minute ferry ride from Hong Kong.

If you're willing to go to Macau, I'd suggest looking into Syndey. They have a great casino in Darling Harbor that I spent way too much time in when I studied abroad. The sportsbook there is also solid and you can find betting machines in many local bars. 

Also, Melbourne has Crown casino. I’ve played poker there - it’s a pretty good poker room.

I agree with neink. Monako is a really good place for "offline" casinos. But u can try at first online casinos. I know a lot of review sites. But most of all I prefer the reviews here https://ecasinos.ph/casino-bonuses/no-deposit-bonuses/ the more information you collect, the better you will be. When looking for a gambling establishment, feel free to read what others have to say. There are many expert reviews on the internet in addition to reviews from other players. If you are unsure of what you are doing, read the reviews carefully. This gives you the opportunity to see what everyone is doing.

 

The demand for casino games is increasing day by day as most people like to gamble frequently. As different gamblers have different temperaments, they won’t play similar types of games. However, you can explore countless online casinos with stunning gameplay and user-experience.

Top casino games

Slots: You need to insert coins into the machine and pull the lever. In online games, you need to press a button, and the wheel spins and stops to reveal a pattern of symbols. If all symbols match, you win!

Blackjack: It is a popular card game that is played between the house and the player. The house offers two cards per player and keeps two cards – one face up and one down. All the players try to get close to 21 and call ‘hit’ to acquire a card and end their turn.

Roulette: Players place their chips on the table to wager them. The big wheel has numbers from 0 to 36 and 00. You can bet for even-odd, red-black, and the first-second-third sections.

 

Macau! Really fun place. It is the capital of casinos in the world, it has 7x the revnues of Las Vegas, and even better hotels. Then you can go to Vietnam which is not that far and get some nice crystalline waters.

 

Miami has Seminole Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood, FL.

Been there. I sat at 2/5 table and squeezed out 3 people over the course of 4 hours. I wished I'd have stopped there because I was up 75% of what I started with

Then I got greedy and got someone else to completely screw me over. ended up at 20% loss that night.

Real humbling experience.

 

If you're heading to Vegas, you might want to consider more than just the WSOP. There are plenty of lavish casinos, poker rooms, and other activities you can do there. Plus, it's relatively safe right now with the proper safety measures in place. For the Caribbean and Macau, you'll want to do some research on the casinos available in the area. You'll also want to make sure you have a deposit method that works for you. If you're looking for a safe and secure deposit method, I'd recommend instadebit, which is the fastest nowadays. Good luck!
