Default 6 deck shoes on the strip?

I leave for vegas in 3 weeks, and my girlfriend has made it clear that she doesn't want to spend 3/4 of our trip downtown. Therefore, can everyone please post where the 6 deck shoes or DD games are (that you know of) located on the strip

thanks

btw...I'm looking mostly for red tables

Talking Best Games On The Strip, Etc.

What is this psychological issue that women seem to have with Fremont Street?! My girlfriend is the same way! No matter how many times I try to explain that the games are better downtown (and that we could win more money,), she is much more concerned with sleeping lions, chefs named Emeril & Wolfgang, dancing fountains, and a faux Eiffel Tower. Sigh -- women are from Venus, men are just idiots, I guess ..

Anyway, TonyDee, you will find some decent BJ games at the Imperial Palace on the Strip. (I look mainly for the single and double deck games, but they have decent shoe games, as well.) I would also suggest walking next door to Harrah's.

A little further down the Strip, try the Tropicana or the Excalibur. I found nothing tempting at New York-New York or Monte Carlo. You'll also find plenty of $5 games at the Boardwalk or Barbary Coast.

Hope that helps! Good luck!

thanks for the input radioguy21

yeah my g/f hates downtown las vegas, we already came to a agreement that when I go it has to be either early morning or late at night. So I basically can only go when she will more then likely be sleeping or too tired

yeah I know the things us guys do for sex

I'm not sure you'll find a $5 table at Harrahs,they are pretty hit and miss,unless you play that nonsensical triple play game they have-War,BJ and stud poker all in one game.
Imperial Palace has now become my place to play on the strip.Further north I find Circus Circus,Slots of Fun and the Strat have good games,and the sahara still has $3 tables,but I'mnot sure how many decks they use.
Do you prefer six decks to double deck? If so,care to share why?

If you are going to be in Vegas more than a few days,may I suggest you take one of the free daytrips down to Laughlin. Most at Hoover Dam,the trip is scenic and Laughlin has great BJ,and quite a few other things to do in an afternoon. Shopping,walking the riverwalk,a nice hourlong scenic cruise on the river,ect,ect.
Nice mal right across the street from the casinos if anyone wants to do some shopping,too.

NYbear...we're flying to Vegas on the 11th of Jan for a few days. The first full day we're there, we're taking a day-trip to Laughlin. Heard a lot about it and am anxious to give it a spin. If it pans out for us, the next Nevada trip we take will probably be Laughlin.
