I seem to remember the bartop VP machines having 9/6 Jacks. I don't know about BJ rules because I don't play Blackjack. I believe Craps odds are 3-4-5, but that's pretty much standard for Strip casinos now. They have some pretty good video poker games there, and the limits at the tables are pretty inexpensive ($5 Craps, for example). The casino is renovated and is actually really nice.

I've eaten there, and I can say the buffet wasn't all that great, but the NASCAR Cafe place was actually pretty good (albeit a tad overpriced). While I'm sure it's probably comfortable, I didn't want to particularly take that chance. The two cheaper towers are pre-set at a certain temperature. Of the three towers, only one of them has climate control (read: air conditioning) adjustment in the room - the most expensive one. While they were very informative, I just didn't like what I was hearing. I was booked there for a week on my last trip, but ended up moving to Excalibur after talking to them on the phone and getting more information.
