Hi everyone,

For those of you who do NOT get Strictly Slots they put out their best of list for 2009. I listed out a couple for Las Vegas but they have casinos listed for all over the US. If you have a question about one in your area or state, please ask me here and I would be glad to give the answer. They have TONS of categories. Here are some of them:

Best Comps
Best Direct Mail
Best slot club Promos
Best rooms
Best variety of slots
Best of certain denomination selection
Best Cashback
Best slot hosts
Best cocktail service
Luckiest casino
Best high end slot area
Best overall casino

Ask away, hopefully they will have your area listed!!! I did NOT agree with most of the ones for the NA casinos in CA. Of course Harrah's Rincon won most of the categories which to me is a crime!

I've noticed that about a lot of the casino rating things... that Harrah's Rincon always scores high. I was never a fan of that place. I agree with you that their service sucks, and I never had any luck there whatsoever.

As far as the other things go, is it possible to buy a copy of Strictly Slots somewhere? I would have far too many questions for you!

Do they list anything on HR Tampa? I'm heading there for the first time Feb. 19th to try my luck. Thanks!

I always think that it's because they are the only casino in SD County/SoCal that is affiliated with one of the big casino names... people identify with that.

I just happened to look at this website and noticed many misconceptions being posted. I thought I would correct some of the information listed here. Strictly Slots magazine is primarily a subscription publication, whereas Casino Player magazine is sold on newsstands, Borders Book stores, airports, in-room in casinos and has a large subscriber base. Regarding our Best of Slots issue: ALL ballots are received from subscribers, casino patrons, and general public. We ONLY count legitimate ballots and will not use duplicated or fraudulent ballots. If Harrah's happens to get the most votes, they win. If not, another property who gets the most votes wins. There are no deals, payoffs or special treatment to casino properties. Best of Gaming and Best of Slots is entirely based on the players votes each property receives. Hope this clears up any misconceptions you may have.
