    Vegas books that give free cocktails
    There was discussion in another thread (Bellagio) about free cocktails.


    Lets get a list going of the books out in Vegas who do or don't give free cocktails.


    Wynn: Love the hotel (and the poker room) but they've lost their way with free cocktails. Now you have to wager at least $300 to get TWO drink tickets.

    Add on your recent Vegas book drinking experiences here.

            Play a couple nickels through the slots by the sportsbook and have the waitress get you a drink for a buck tip.

              Even for a novice player, I am surprised that some don't offer free ones to them...

                      $150 for a watered-down Captain and coke sounds fair to me

                                          It's $200 on sports or $6 on ponies at MGM.

                                            True. However, if you have a relationship with the staff, generally you are wagering more than the required amount to receive drink tickets anyway.

                                              Books that require no drink tickets on and around the strip:

                                              NYNY (Yes, Cane they still do.)

                                                    Yeah. You still have to crane your head at an 85 degree angle to watch games too...

                                                    Probably the worst book to actually watch anything.

                                                              Imperial palace book sucks ass but I stay there alot because it's free and great location.. Anyway I wager 50-100 they give me tickets and even if I'm filling out a parlay card the waitress always comes around offering me drinks..
