June 2006, CasinoCamper was driving thru Tonopah and saw the Banc Club.  Quickly stuck the camera out the window and snapped this photo.

-Casino Camper Report, July 2007

We stopped at the Banc Club just after noon on a Friday.  I needed to do an hour of work online, and Tonopah has Sprint EVDO service.  As others have said, it's a dirt parking lot but big and free.  We ate in the restaurant and every table was full for lunch.  We had sandwiches, the Philly Cheese Steak and a "Malibu"; both were very good.  We found progressive 8/5 Bonus Poker at the bar.  Chris played quarters and hit the Aces for $108 and the SF for $97.  There was also a dollar progressive.  A sand storm came up, so I didn't get a new photo.  The place was OK, and the staff was friendly.  OK for a lunch stop, or overnight.

Yes, but the worst place I have ever eat at, and especially for a casino. The porterhouse steaks were about 3/8" thick, grilled on the outside and still froze on the inside, sent back to the kitchen, came back the same way. Waitress agreed they were bad, gave us a 10% discount (should have been 100% discount, as neither one of us eat them)

We drive Las Vegas to Reno and stop in Tonopah - Banc Club has truck & RV parking. Dirt and bumpy but plenty of room. There is an interesting mining museum also.
