All the big casinos in Vegas also have awesome lounges, where you can kick back with a classic martini and chill. (Flickr Images)

Everyone always rants and raves about the night clubs in Las Vegas (and they are pretty cool), but there are some wicked hotel and casino lounges, too.

Not all of us get off on standing in ridiculous lineups and having to pay crazy cover charges just so we can spend the evening standing around wishing we had worn something fancier or sexier or cooler. You know what I mean?

That's what makes the lounge scene so appealing. Go into any one of the casinos on The Strip and I guarantee you'll find a rad bar playing tunes to chill by. And after playing blackjack for a couple of hours, sitting back on a plush sofa while sipping on a cocktail is THE perfect way to wind down.

In this week's "Best of The Strip" series of casino articles at Bodog Casino, you can read all about our favorite Las Vegas Casino and Hotel lounges. (My personal fave is the Koi Lounge at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino.)

After reading that article, head on over to the Bodog Casino and see if you can't win some cash playing your favorite casino games…so you can take that trip to Las Vegas and check out all those swank lounges.
