BTW, table games are well spaced and spread out - or not crowded together like those back in USA. Be prepared for having lots of watchers for the actions as they will standing behind/next to you, outnumbering the actual players. Even the slots area feel very spacious compared to what we've been accustomed to at our local hometown casinos.
Letitride: Will I get a better exchange fate at the cashier's cage instead of just getting H.K. dollars in advance? Also, do you recall what the lowest denomination bets were? Anything as low as $10USD? Thanks.
