Stefan, Baden, Salzburg, and, by far most successfully, Cercle Wien in Vienna. I was winning so much at Vienna that I risked my life staying longer than I usually do in rooms filled with heavy cigarette smoke. <g> I was robbed outside the casino at Salzburg. Fortunately after a not so good night. And Baden was fun, but not especially a winning spot for me. I even sold an article to Gambling Times about Austrias Skiing/Gambling resorts.

I think the most elegant casino in the world is Baden-Baden in Germany, but over 6 years, I think I broke even there.

What I love in Europe is that they allow folks behind you to bet on your hand in blackjack. When I was on a run, I often drew a crowd. But hit a 16 and bust one time and they tend to disappear and call you dirty names. <g> Also, they think the guy in the last seat has an obligation to bust the dealer. Crazy, but fun.
