is year the voting for Best Casinos 2014 was held during August and a record number of readers voted online and also sent in completed printed ballots to let their opinions be heard about their favorite casinos. Southern California Gaming Guide readers are casino players in all 22 Southern California Indian casinos, and they know what they like.
e Best Casinos 2014 are not chosen by our editorial sta , but by our readers. For 11 years we’ve learned that Southern California Gaming Guide readers love to share their views about the casinos they visit. Every year for the past 11 years, our readers tell us the casinos that they think are the best of Southern California. We value your opinions—and so do Southern California casinos — some of the best in the country.
e Best Casinos 2014 include awards for Loosest Slots Casino, Luckiest Casino, Best Casino, Best Casino Resort, Best Buffet, Best Entertainment, Best Casino Spa, Best Golf Course, Best Slot Tournaments, Best Casino Website and more: a total of 19 award categories.
All 19 award categories include the best rst, second and third place winners, and all three award places are noteworthy. A total of 57 casino awards are
listed on these pages.
We say this often, and mean it: All Southern California casinos are winners, but for readers who voted, some casinos stand out for their consistent extraordinary service, fantastic amenities, amazing promotions, incredible bu ets and restaurants, beautiful and comfortable hotel rooms, and world- class entertainment venues and shows.
is year, the Best Casinos include a mix
of some past Best Casino award winners, since top player-rated casinos evolve to deliver more value and more fun to maintain their positions. And there are a few surprises with a few casinos that received reader votes for the rst time to join the top ranks.
In September, an independent source tallied the results of all online and print reader ballots we received in August, and here are the Best Casinos 2014! And as
a thank you for taking the time to complete the Best Casinos ballot, Southern California Gaming Guide readers had a chance to win one of ve cash prizes: $500, $300, $200, $150, and $100.
