4000 W. Flamingo Road
Turns out you readers like freebies just as much as we do. That's one of the claims to fame for the Gold Coast's cozy keno lounge, which offers "Freeno," where you register your six favorite numbers and hang around the Gold Coast, hoping to win $100 to $500. If, however, you shell out $2 for the Gold Coast's popular progressive game, you can win hundreds of thousands of dollars when the meter runs high enough. At a place this popular, it often does. No wonder R-J readers have voted the Gold Coast the keenest place to play keno for the third straight year. The Gold Coast's sister casino, The Orleans, was a close second.
Our Pick: THE RESERVE
777 W. Lake Mead Drive, Henderson
When it comes to keno, we hardly know our Catch Fives from our 120-Way Six Spots, but we know enough to realize the odds of hitting our special numbers are constant wherever we play. That means the paybacks make the difference -- and the Reserve's paybacks are just a bit more generous across the board. How much more generous? On their dollar tickets, the Reserve has a Zero-Catch Pays policy -- which means that even if none of your numbers hits, you still win. We may be bad at math, but that adds up to a winner in our book.
