from my experience in south shore the best place to play is the Horizon
(formerly the High Sierra). They tend to play out much of the deck, it
is generally less crowded than the other three and a half, and they dont
get those "miraculous 21's" as much. If your goal is to relax and slurp
drinks, then head to Ceasars pai gow. They have the speediest waitresses
by far. Harveys on the other hand has a policy of ONE drink per hour in
addition to being a pretty shitty place to play. If your looking for the
"college scene" then Harrahs is where you probably want to head. 
have fun and remember the speed limit on hwy 50 is 55 not 35 :)
