I like the Gilpin. They have some great $100 tournaments. Some of the lower buy-ins can get a little crazy.
Their vig is a little steep, though. For a $100 tourney, $10 goes to the house and $1 to the bad beat jack pot, so only $89 of each entry goes in the prize pool. Plus, none of the house rake goes to the dealers, so you have to factor your tip in on top of that.
Other casinos do have tourneys with a lower vig, but for me, it's worth paying a little extra for the Gilpin. It's a nice room with comfortable seating and most of the dealers are pretty decent. A few lame newbies, but you get that almost anywhere up there.

Ah yes, but they are the ONLY Casino I know of that have a bad beat jackpot for TOURNAMENTS (aces full of Kings need to be beat to activate the Jackpot, and the hand has to be played all the way through to showdown).
