Best thing about Bovada:

Play for free
with no hassles

Most online casinos insult you with popups and spam, and they give you the hard sell even if you just want to try their free-play games.  Fortunately there's Bovada, which is the opposite.  That's the primary reason they're the only online casino I accept advertising from.

  • No registration required.  Most casinos let you play for free with fake money, but there's a catch: They make you register an account first.   That's not just a hassle: after you register you can expect them to badger you by email trying to get you to deposit real money.  But Bovada lets you play right away without forcing you to register an account.  Just close any registration boxes that appear, and then you can play without registering.  Here, try it.
  • Plays right in your browser.  If you'd rather not download the casino software to your computer or phone, you don't have to.  The games play right in your web browser.  Nice.
  • Works on Macs.  The play-in-browser games are MacOS compatible!  Before Bovada, Mac users were pretty much out of luck for gambling online, even for free-play.  Not any more.

Bovada's not perfect, but there's no better site serving most of the U.S.

Map of the Las Vegas Strip, 08/19

Here's the current map if you're looking for the current version.

This is the first update I made to the map in a whopping eight years!  I lost the original graphics file, which is good thing, because that means I had to draw it entirely from scratch, and because I was doing so, I made a fantastic map.  Had I been able to find the graphics file, you might still be stuck with the old, crappy formatChanges:

  • REDONE from scratch
  • REMOVED: Westin Casino, Casino pictures, mileage scale, alphabetical index, compass direction, airplane icon
  • ADDED (casinos): Palace Station, Slots-A-Fun, Rio, Gold Coast, Tuscany, Palms, Orleans
  • ADDED (streets): Koval Ln., Arville St., S. Valley View Blvd.
  • ADDED (other): Dots to indicate location, I-15, Fashion Show Mall, Giant Coke Bottle, Welcome to Vegas sign
  • NAME CHANGES: Sahara > SLS • Hilton > Westgate • Imperial Palace/O'Sheas > Linq • Bill's Gamblin' Hall > Cromwell • Terrible's > Silver Sevens • Monte Carlo > Park MGM
  • FIXED: Caesar's > Caesars

Practice gambling with play money

Before you throw down your hard-earned cash in a casino, PRACTICE FIRST!  Learn the games with play money where it doesn't cost you anything if you lose.  Seriously.

You can play Bovada's games (below) right away without registering for an account.  Most every other online casino makes you give up your email address just to play the fake-money games — ugh.  That's the main reason Bovada is the only online casino that gets advertising space on my site.  (When you see the registration box, you can cancel it and proceed to the game without registering.)
