Casinos abound everywhere. Every upscale hotel has a casino.

Blackjack in Panama -- Blackjack is very popular. At the Sheraton (by the convention centre) the minimum bet is $3. The downtown Marriott (near the Beruit restaurant) had a couple $2 minimum tables but they were always packed out. In fact, the only table I was able to get on without difficulty was the $5 minimum table. Small bet blackjack player should come early.

Craps in Panama – Craps doesn't appear to be all that popular in Panama. The Sheraton (by the convention centre) does not even have a craps table. The larger casino at the downtown Marriott (near the Beruit restaurant) has 1 craps table. The whole time I was there I was the only one who played.

Poker in Panama – The poker tables were mostly empty. About 2 tables had people, while about 6 tables sat empty.

Panama Slot Machines – Plenty of people play the slots in Panama. By far, most of the real estate in the casinos is devoted to them.
