The Claridge Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City. Lots of history there and yes, Marilyn Monroe used to stay there.
Here is the Wiki on it. Lots of unique history for sure. Read the 'Casino Era'.

Anyway we used to play there (maybe stayed there once) as The Claridge to myself, my close friends and casino playing associates, was labeled as a 'neutral ground' property. It was where players met up and we were all on the same level.
We all had our favorite and primary properties that were much bigger and offered a lot more than the smallest of all, The Claridge.
And yes, The Claridge was located at Park Place and The Boardwalk (remember Monopoly's most expensive places to land?).
The main entrance to the casino, after walking through the hotel lobby, one would step down a few steps and there it was, the one big 14 seat, 2 sided kidney shaped, 2 banker table.
Lots of great games happened right there for sure in the late 89's and the 90's. But one thing unique for the majority of the baccarat players that walked away from our primary properties for a few hours or a night, was that we all seemingly went there with good wins from our other casinos we all predominantly played at.
Don't forget, all of this occurred before the electronic scoreboards, the side bets, etc. No hand count, no stats showing, no 'roads' being shown or tracked, etc., etc. During the late 80's and throughout the 90's we were content in taking the shoe and dealing the cards ourselves. To this day I still say, the way we used to play at those big tables made it much easier to win, follow streaks, chop chop, doubles and more. As well, the camaraderie amongst the players was unconditionally greater than what it is these days.
I found this mug stashed away in a box the other day. Such beautiful memories by and large!!
