    Keep saying one of these trips, just never happens. What casinos have you never been inside of?

    On the strip I have never visited Wynn, Encore and The Palazzo. Pretty sure that is all.

    Will try fit them in next trip.

    Missed The Riviera by 2 weeks and was planning on visiting.

    I think I've technically hit every major strip casino at least once. But I may have just walked through Encore without stepping on the gaming floor.

    Off strip places I've talked about going to but never have in rough relevance of importance.

    Tuscany
    Westgate
    Lucky Dragon (not my fault yet)
    Palace Station
    Eastside Cannery
    Aces and Ales Nellis location
    Peppermill (If you count this as strip, then that's missing)
    Big Dogs Draft House
    Emerald Island
    Eureka
    Silver Sevens
    Frankie's Tiki Lounge
    Aliante (so far away...)

    I'm sure there are some more I'm missing. Lol

    Only Lucky Dragon, wasn't open when we were last there, pretty much hit everywhere else, make it a part of the trip to visit as many as possible and tick off any that look interesting. Not done Red a Rock or Green Balley either come to think of it, maybe next time!

    I actually make it a point to do new casinos when they open.

    The only obvious ones are Eureka (had to think to remember the name) and maybe Aztec Inn. I can't remember going there but it's next door to Strat so I may have popped in there many years ago.

    I know there are some smaller ones in North Las Vegas and the "Hender-Tucky" region of Henderson which I've never visited.

    Is the one by Lake Las Vegas still open? I have never been there.

    A more interesting question might be Which casinos have you never gone BACK to? :)

    Have been into everything on the main drag except Stratosphere - if that even counts.

    Another question that could be interesting is which strip hotel have you spent the shortest amount of time in. I would have to say Tropicana for me. No reason to really go in there considering its location. Mandalay Bay is up there as well. Encore I have had minimal time as well but my time spent at XS and Surrender a few years back counts.

    I try to walk through all of the hotels for fun and to see what has changed. I do find myself not walking through Bellagio or Caesars (and Wynn generally) on many trips- because they are a pain in the ass to get into. Bellagio and Wynn with their long mall entrance, and Caesars for simply requiring me to traverse the labyrinth of Forum Shops to get in OR the labyrinth of stairways, walkways, escalators and then playing frogger through the valet drive up to get in and out of the place
