I was playing at gold coast last week in vegas - A guy came to the table with $10 bills and insisted on playing cash.
He lost 14 straight hands.... his had $150. He left with $10.
Sun Coast
I just returned from 10 days in vegas... with very positive results. It is not on the strip, but SunCoast has a ton of BJ tables -- most were $5 even during the 4th of July week.
Plus the Dealers are very personalble and fun.... its worth the trip off the strip
