Wizard of Vegas launches
Michael Shackleford's immensely popular and smartest site on gambling anywhere is Wizard of Odds.
He's now just launched Wizard of Vegas, a website about all things Vegas.
While the paint still hasn't dried, much of the features are empty, but expect them to fill up in the coming months. Those include reviews of casinos, games, articles, shows, restaurants, plus message forums.
The lack of casino reviews is made up by photos of casinos with attractive women (check out Binion's if you like women in sports jerseys). Eventually reviews will include video poker paytables, blackjack rules, and other game paybacks at that casino.
One immediately useful stats page is in the list of casinos, which is sortable and shows how many poker tables, table games, and slots are at a particular casino..
For example, we didn't know Red Rock leads Las Vegas with the most amount of slots, at 2,955. We always thought MGM Grand had the most, but they're listed as 9th at 2,470.
The least amount of slots? That would be Silver Saddle on E. Charleston, at 38. No pictures (yet).
