I would imagine the payscale is more or less (maybe a few grand going either way) what the typical IT salary is in Las Vegas, total.

Have you searched for what that would be? Also, what type of IT work are you looking for, specifically? If it's "any", then start at the bottom and work your way to the top in terms of searching salaries at sites like salary.com and payscale.com.

$10,000 to $100,000 depends on position responsibilities, education and experience levels.

They pay you in chips only.

Casino pay can be pretty good. I currently work for a casino as a tech. Several of the casinos in my area pay $20+ /hr. to start.

do they have many computers in them then?

Yes. Most casinos have large HR departments, due to higher turnovers. Plus you have a large finance department for counting all that money, security, surveillance, etc.

My experience may not be too relevant being outside the US; when I briefly worked at a casino as a sys admin , I was privy to the salary spreadsheets and I thought the rates were less than average. Considering the scale of technology we needed to know about, the rate was quite poor. It wasn't just the datacentre either; there were all the kiosks, hotel networks, croupier money machines and assorted customised gadgets spread out everywhere. On top of that is the expected availability that comes with a 24x7 environment.

Of course, the experience is amazing, and I've heard having a casino on your resume gets some good respect.
