Haeundai has a big casino. It's in the paradise Hotel near the Aquarium. Right on the beach as well. They got one poker table, plenty of blackjack tables. a lot of baccarat tables, and of course the roulette tables. |

The casino at the Lotte in Seomyeon is larger and nicer than the one at Paradise in Haeundae. |

The one on heyundai beach is pretty good, but small. No dice or poker last time i was there...blackjack, ten dollar tables minimum, and the roulette was 2500 won minimum.
The seven luck at Samyeon lotte is ok too, and they had 1000 won roulette weekdays when i went a few months back. not that i played at such a piddling, filthy level as that, because i am fabulously wealthy. i played nothing but 10000000000 won baccarat. of course, i won.
oh, sorry, i thought this was the 'bragging' thread again. anyway--
No poker except carribean, three card, and blackjack in any busan casino as far as i know. 5000 won blackjack...maybe? taisai is a go if the chinese are in house.
i like hyundai because you can go out and drown yourself after you lose the kid's college fund, or rent a jetski if you win. it's right on the beach. also mickey dee's is nearby and 24 hours.
Samyeon is central tho, so if you want to go to another part of town from there, it's easy. Lots of cheap hotels nearby too. |

ok, i went there yesterday, i would not call the casino big, about 10 tables, most that have very high limits, 30,000+ a hand...I found the casino extremely tiny even by NZ standards. They had one 10,000 won black jack table, the others were 30,000, roulette was cool, just standard, Caribbean stud poker was fun, but 10,000 ante, 20,000 bet, your money soon goes down....was gutted to lose a big bet with 3 Queens to the dealers 3 kings....
Anyway if your going to go, take lots of money, be prepared to wait at least an hour for the blackjack table (staff said it was usually busy, i suggested opening another but i must be crazy)
The staff really weren't helpful to be honest, and it was too small to be an awesome experience, for Busan's first casino i was disappointed...will be going to Lotte hotel next time to see what thats like. I do think drink are free though...but not sure...i didn't pay for mine but kept getting offered them when i was losing hahaha.
Saw a foreigner blow over one million...christ.
Still i got my fix, unfortunately lost all my 200,000 won haha, as did my friends...but all in all it was a good day away from Daegu, it is nice that its right on the beach  |
