Description:                                

Sam Boyd's has been in business in downtown Las Vegas since 1956. The 32,000-square foot casino was put on the map by Wayne Newton, who got his start there. Now, the casino is known for it's low limit tables and numerous tournaments. It's definitely a 'grind joint' (a casino that caters to low roller clientele), but one that is clean and well maintained. In fact, the casinos bright and airy gaming floor is comfortable and can be a fun place to play. Rooms are generic. They each have a private safe but are otherwise unremarkable.
