a gambler like you has never been to Vegas?

Where are you staying?

Best book is the Bellagio IMO, but I wouldn't argue with people telling me that Mirage or LV Hilton being better.

Check out Fatburger, it is the bomb

Hopefully you cant stop vegas like youve stopped some of these horses. Good luck out there, better keep that head straight or youll be calling home for a wire the first 10 hours.

Hey, sometimes all they need is a change of location... horses that can't win at Turfway win by 10 at Mountaineer all the time!

Go two three times a year, just kinda comes up one hilarious night and we say **** it, lets go. This trip should be pretty nuts because we are bringing some girls with us, god knows what is going to go down.

What is great is that NONE of the people that are going know that I am showing up. I was orginally not going but because of the hit that we had two weeks ago, that is financing this insane one. I am showing up on the SAME FLIGHT as them in a COWBOY hat and a **** eating grin. Like I am going to let my friends go to Vegas without me.

We also do not pay for rooms, they are comped, we have like 4 rooms for 6 of us......

Dude, have you had there pound burger there, it is seriously insane. My first meal is always there, nothing other. I always get their serious burger with nothing but cheese, it is so bomb. Then the 2nd time back I get stuff on it, I would rather it not get messy right off the plane.

Another note, it pisses me off how long it takes at that place, drives me up a friggin wall

ill be there June 28th for two nights, ill be staying at the Bellagio. Hoping to play WSOP event 46, and or 47 without it getting in the way of family time. Its my moms birthday on that Friday so ill just let it be when I get there if I play in the WSOP or not. If not my pops and I will play ponies, then afterwards play poker. Hoping to also score some Love Beatles tickets, the Wayne Newton show is sold out for the nights im there.

Im not gonna go all the way to Vegas to eat hamburgers, we have a fatburger in the Seattle area, and i've had in and out burgers already while I was in San Francisco. The Bellagio buffet has kobe beef and sushi ive heard

Seattle, seriously, if you must do one thing while you're there, GO SEE LOVE, even if you have to steal a ticket from an old woman walking in (OK I was kidding about that part). It's an incredible performance.

"I appreciate any advice and tips."

the hot girl that starts a conversation with you at the casino bar is a pro.

that's really all i got.

Seattle,

I don't know if you like Thai food but Lotus if Siam just of the strip is great. Voted best Thai restuarant in the USA. Very reasonable and may even have a lunch buffet in the $10. range. If you like Thai food do not miss it.

[ddthetide]

the Mirage has a place called Saumba, it's brazilian bbq, was excellent.
if you like italian, Il Fornio in NYNY, Trevi in Ceasars and Canelleto in Venetian. all three are excellent. Margaritaville is pretty good, fun atmosphere. breakfast was good at Tropical Breeze in Flamingo.
buffet at Harrah's, Planet Hollywood (Aladdin), Luxor and Rio were all excellent. Gold Coast and Sahara's are good.

shows, we've seen Jubilee at Bally's, longest running show on the strip. you can even take back stag tour the morning of the show. we'd see it again. The Producers at Paris was VERY funny! The Phantom was ok.

Rookie move...you don't go to Vegas with "The Boys" and bring girls along. That screams monkey wrench.

Ain't it the truth.

As for food, if things go to hell at the tables, I recommend the vending machines in the lobby of the Boardwalk Holiday Inn.

Not a Vegas rookie anymore, I have been there like 5 times.

As far as the girls, we don't listen to them anyways, it isn't like they have the power to pull us from the tables to go smack that, too accessible there as is...

Seattle, the Bellagio buffet is the bomb, I was comped it because of my horse action about two years ago, and it was outstanding

Boardwalk was torn down last summer. that block is 1 BIG hole with new buildings sprouting from it.
