I think sports players more often called it "Binion's."
You can call it whatever you want.
Call it the Mint for all I care.
I was just saying that for many of us, who basically lived there, in the late 80's on up always called it the Shoe.
But it's like maxpen and the way he rubberbands his money.
Everyone does things different.
Personally, I miss the elegance of the Baccarat Pit... not the Mini one but that was cool in it's own way too.
Oh and the way the Magum... that's the MGM for people in the know... had their single zero roulette all set up like they do in France.
Of course that was when the witch would fly around and the lion's head would eat your soul.
