Gambling is legal for holders of foreign passports in government sanctioned casinos, generally found in major hotels. Expect to find slot machines, roulette, blackjack, casino Poker (against the house). A few casinos in Sharm El-Sheikh have live poker, but the rake makes the game unplayable (sometimes capped at over $100 or 100 euro). Cairo has the most casinos (around 15), but Sharm El Sheikh has the nicest. There was one casino in Alexandria, one in Taba, and a few in Hurghada. Most casinos play in US dollars, although there is at least one in Sharm El-Sheikh that plays in euros. No casinos play in Egyptian currency. In Cairo, the casinos are especially frequented by Saudis and other Gulf Arabs, but the official language is generally English.
