Las Vegas

At the Palazzo: 3325 Las Vegas Blvd; 702.739.6462

Far beyond a swim-up blackjack table, Mandalay's just reopened their sandy-shored, wave-poolside gambling den. First floor's a swimsuit-friendly sit-down restaurant, with blackjack, craps, roulette, etc, on the airy, open-windowed 2nd, and cabanas and a small private pool on the 3rd. If you think you can't lose your shirt just 'cause you're not wearing one, you're wrong.
