Independently owned by Michael John Gaughan, the South Point casino has been open for business since December 22, 2005. Though it is located on Las Vegas Blvd., South Point is technically not part of “the strip” as it is a few miles south of Mandalay Bay. There is, however, a shuttle service that runs between South Point and the airport.

Even though it is mostly frequented by locals, the South Point and its Southern California theme attracts a large number of tourists. In particular, it isn’t uncommon to see big crowds with people wearing cowboy hats for various special events like gun shows and rodeos in the Equestrian Center Showroom which seats 4,400.

DH just talked to a casino host at South Point and they are discounting our room to the 'casino rate'. It turns out to be a savings of $15.00 over the rate we had. It turns out to be a savings of $15.00 over the rate we had.

As most strip casinos now charge for parking, the South Point’s valet, parking garage, and outdoor lot remain free. There are multiple entryways into the property aside from the main entrance, including one that connects directly to the sportsbook. Other attractions for its locals are a large bowling alley and a 16 theater movie house.

Though South Point’s casino floor is not mind blowing, it is complete with a hotel and spa so we still find it to be a most serviceable venue for locals, and for tourists who still want fast access to the strip but are also looking to budget wisely.

Casino at South Point

[table “” not found /]
There is nothing visually stunning about the 80,000 square foot gaming floor as it is simply designed in the shape of a giant rectangle. The property is only in its 13th year, but if South Point updated their casino floor they could probably earn themselves the nod for best local casino because of how close it is to the main Vegas strip. But for now, the casino floor is just par at best as its selection of table games was disappointingly a bit scarce.

Baccarat

At South Point, it seems that baccarat is not always in great demand. There are only a couple baccarat tables located on the main casino floor, which are unlikely to ever be full. Minimum bets here generally range from $5 to $25.

Blackjack

As one should always expect when visiting a Las Vegas casino, there are plenty of blackjack tables, and there are usually enough open seats. Most of the blackjack table minimums are $10, but you will have no problem finding a $5 table, especially on weekdays. The good news is that blackjack pays 3-2 all day. The bad news is there is no high limit section for any table game, no single or double deck games, or any of the other recently created blackjack variations, such as Blackjack Switch or Free Bet Blackjack.

There is one table that requires a $100 minimum bet, but it’s no different than just betting $100 a hand at any of the lower-limit tables on the main floor. All the rules are the same, and the dealer must hit on soft 17.

Craps

During our last visit to South Point, there were more craps tables than seemed necessary. On the bright side, $5 minimums are offered along with double odds for bets of $2,000-$4,000.

Roulette

Recreational gamblers may not be aware of this, but despite the fact that roulette yields the biggest edge to the house, it also gives the player a lot more time per dollar spent than most other games. For example, blackjack is always fast and furious, but it takes time to spin the wheel and then pay out.

In any case, there are plenty of roulette wheels that cost very little to play. The minimums are $1-$50 on a number, the 2-1 bets are $1-$500, and the even money bets are $1-$1,000.

Other South Point Table Games

– Progressive Pai Gow: $10 minimum
– Progressive 3 Card Poker: $5 minimum
– Mississippi Stud: $5 minimum
– Ultimate Texas Hold’em: $5 minimum

Bingo games are also offered 8 times per day. At each session is 12 games of Bingo and a Cashball Jackpot.

Slots at South Point

An exact slot count is unavailable at this time, but we don’t expect you’ll get stuck waiting for one as slots overrun the casino floor from one end to the other. You can tell many of them have been there since the beginning, but there is also a wide selection of modern slots that are large and have solid graphics. On the main floor they start with penny slots, and go up to $0.10, $0.25 and $1 on the main floor, but there is a high limit room as well.

High Limit Slots at South Point

The high limit section is right in the middle of the casino. Its limits are tame, but $1, $2, $5, $10, and $25 are available, with max bets in the $50-$100 being the highest you will find.

Video poker can also be found at South Point and is one of the main attractions in this area. The high limit slots at South Point, as a whole, are about average, with nothing particularly standing out. South Point has its locals that will frequent the casino no matter what, and high limit slots are not a primary selling point for the majority of its players.

Video Poker at South Point

There are 21 different varieties of video poker games waiting to be played, and you will find many of them at the casino bars so that you may obtained comped drinks. Payouts only go as low 98.49% at its Bonus Deluxe machines, and up to 99.81% when playing Double Bonus Deuces Wild. At the bar machines, you can play for up to $2 at some, but most stay in the $0.25-$1 range, with some allowing as little as $0.05.

South Point is a solid choice for video poker given its abundance of high payback VP machines, both at the bars and on the main floor. The bartenders tend to be quick, friendly, and overall attentive, only adding to the VP experience at South Point.

Poker Room at South Point

The poker room has 22 tables but oftentimes this room doesn’t feature a ton of action. The cash games are $2-$4 limit, $3-$6, and $4-$8, but $2-$4 is usually the only game that ever goes. No Limit is also spread, offering $1-$2 and $2-$5. With that said, $1-$2 is all you can count on as $2-$5 usually only has a chance at coming together during the World Series of Poker. All the active games, lists, and phone number are available on the Bravo Poker app, and your hotel rate can be discounted after 4 hours of play.

Daily tournaments are also played at 10 AM, 2 PM, and 6 PM. The buy-ins vary, but $50 at 10 AM with $5 bounties.

The 2 PM alternates with a $20 buy-in and addons on Monday and Wednesday, with $50 buy-ins and a $30 bounty on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The Friday 2 PM is $50 with a double stack, Saturday is $125, and back to $50 on Sunday.

The 6 PM tournament is a guaranteed prize pool of $1,000 with a $75 buy-in every day but Wednesdays and Sundays when it is $100. Wednesday guarantees $3,000, with Sunday at $5,000. Whenever the prize pool is met, the guarantee increases by $50 for the next $75 event, and $100 for the $100 event. Once the guarantee is not met, it resets to its minimum.

Sportsbook at South Point

South Point has quite possibly the most underrated sportsbook in Las Vegas. Some may find it inconvenient, but the large racebook and sportsbook are totally separated by a short walk. They are near the poker room and you can access each through its own entrance by the outdoor parking lot. Surprisingly, the racebook prohibits smoking but the sportsbook doesn’t except for cigars.

The racebook holds about 160 people and has an individual TV at every seat. As drinks are no longer easily attainable for free in sportsbooks, you only have to show a betting ticket to the cocktail servers to drink up. Since the sportsbook’s edge is smaller than the race’s, $20 is
