If you are from out of town and staying here, just make sure you are in a tower room as the court yard rooms are quite dodgy. I frequent the stand up 99% machines in front of the Cabo Bar, they are usually pretty active. Staff is great, always friendly. Its older overall but the new sports bar addition and removal of the Louie Anderson theater have really opened up providing more slant poker and slot machines in that area. Love the players club and monthly comps for locals. Great place to play Bingo too! Will always go back. JessicaLynn

There is a great host that I use at the Harrah's properties in Atlantic city - Bally's, Harrah's, Showboat, and Caesars. Larry Glassman - email address: [email protected]. Larry is an Independent Casino Rep. I have worked with other casino hosts and Larry stands out as the best. hardidi117

This is my second time to stay at GVR. It was a great experience. GVR has loads of video poker with excellent paytables. The pool area is really nice and the help is friendly. The downside to playing full pay video poker is that you don't accumulate points very fast. All in all, a great experience with lots of shopping and restaurants nearby. Give it a try! stevefulmer

I do very well at the medium limit games, the low limit games are ok, but stay away from the high limit room, all the skill in the world wont help you there hoteyedguy

It has been many years since I went to the Showboat. I expected the property to appear run down, however it wasn't too bad. With help from a slot attendant, we found the JOB $0.25 machines down the steps and to the left just like in the description. It was a good night. I won on both VP and craps. We will be going again and staying later this month. I will look for the $1 JOB machines then. Finerflower
