When it Comes to Wendover Casinos, It’s All In the Numbers

Wendover Casinos offer a great variety of gaming choices. But the Wendover Nugget Hotel & Casino has it wrapped up when it comes to the wider variety of games, machines, and other offerings.  When you look at the numbers, the Nugget’s offerings add up to the best bet in Wendover casinos.

The Nugget has 802 gaming machines, many of which are not found in other Wendover casinos.  For “conservative” players, they offer 95 Penny Slots. That’s along with 81 Nickel Slots, 71 Quarter Slots, 40 Dollar Slots, 12 $5 Slots, 4 $25 Slots, Progressive Slots from $1 to $5 bets, 477 multi-denomination slots and 12 other slot machines. The Nugget also has unique machines, including Betty Boop’s Big Hit, Megabucks, and Video Poker, that take anywhere from nickel to $5 bets.

If table games are more your style, you can choose from one of 52 games – the largest live game offering in Wendover casinos– including 3-Card and Pai Gow Poker, 35 tables of Blackjack, 2 Craps tables, 3 Roulette tables, and Royal Match. The game pit has 20 overhead 42-inch televisions showing sporting events and news channels.

The entire floor is equipped with Ticket-In, Ticket-Out technology. Instead of waiting for an attendant to give your payout, each machine prints out a bar-coded slip of paper. This is especially nice for large payouts. You can redeem tickets for cash anytime during your play or insert them into other machines to keep playing. An automated player tracking system gives Nugget players better, more frequent, and faster rewards for their loyal play. Comps are available immediately. 

You’ll find the only live Keno game in Wendover casinos in the Nugget’s Keno Lounge. Players can bet up to 1,000 games at a time and can win $50,000 by hitting 11 out of 11 with only a $2 wager.

A separate Poker Room at the Nugget has nine tables with a wide variety of card games. It also has 42-inch LCD televisions and a beverage station exclusively for poker players. Tournament and no-limit games are offered throughout the week.

The Nugget’s Sports Book has 18 42-inch LCD televisions and three giant projection screen TVs. You can place your wager and grab a drink and a snack at the adjacent food court, then settle in to watch your favorite sport. During football season, the Nugget offers an NFL Sunday package and weekly merchandise giveaways

Frequent players can get extra rewards using their VIP Player Card and Gold Card Membership.  Cardholders get comp dollars in the Pit, Poker Room, and Keno Lounge. Insert your card into any of the slots or video poker machines to get comp dollars as well. Comp dollars can be used in the Nugget’s restaurants and bars, hotel night stays, and upgrades, and in the gift shop. You can also use comps at Wendover’s championship Toana Vista Golf course.
