+3KLil latina next to me walked with +5KAll started with basic $3 passline/max odds (20x) bets. Once the vortex of that roll got going, started pressing numbers. Ended up leaving around 1K on the table when the 7 hit. Had I the balls to press with the Latina, i woulda been up at her level.Unreal. Never before, most likely never again.Towards the end, the pitboss's supervisor was sitting in the boxman's spot barking out orders on how to pay each bet. Payouts, because of the size and number, were taking FOREVER. They were close to having to bring in more chips, the area where the chips were was filled with the most disgusting lint/dirt combo you can imagine. Hadn't seen the light of day in a very long time.Our half of the table got paid at least 15-17K. No clue on other half. Keep in mind, low limits (Casino Royale) and no highrollers.lucked into a 2 hr craps roll at Casino Royal on Saturday. Pretty insane.
what were you able to walk away with?

Every single club in town will give you a free ride there. And if you call ahead, I am sure you can get no cover at any club as well. Pluys, any club is 10 minutes drive from just about any hotel, so really: what is a 2 mile limo drive worth to you?If you go to Sapphires or Rhino, the top two places in town, you will be small fish in a big pond (on a low budget). The women there will ll be pushing the back room, looking for hourly payments.My advice is to hit a smaller club, with cheaper drinks, and girls that are happy to get 20 bucks for a lapdance. Check out a place called Seamless. Round the corner from the Orleans, and turns into an afterhours at 4:00. They literally shut down the stage at 4:00, and put a DJ up there. the kind of place where dancers hang out and get wasted with you afterwards.

Unbelievable. You're right that you'll likely never see that again but most craps players will never see it once.+3KLil latina next to me walked with +5KAll started with basic $3 passline/max odds (20x) bets.

Rhino is the best.

There was a lot of hustle at Rhino last time I was there, about half the girls wouldn't do a regular dance, it was $100 (3 songs) or nothing, given Rhino or Sapphire I'd go Sapphire.

Nice. My buddy, after a losing night of poker ended up @ Harrahs rolling dice. By the time I met up with him, around 2am, he was down about $400. I jumped in and lost about $200 after rolling 3 hard 8's in a row. I went back to the room thinking he was done for the night as well. He came back 2 hours later up $1200. Said that everything he pressed won during about a 45 minute roll, the dealers all made some big bucks too. Luckily for him, the table was not crowded, so he was able to maximize his rolling.Jersey, when did you get to Vegas?+3KLil latina next to me walked with +5KAll started with basic $3 passline/max odds (20x) bets.

I got in late tuesday night. Wife and I actually walked into the poker room at Ceasars for a look. I mentioned that I was urged to yell out TAP!@!!. She didn't seem amused. I had a seminar there Wed-Fri. Played golf Wed morn (goodtimes). The big craps roll was Saturday afternoon after the Belmont ran. Left Sunday afternoon. Weather was a little off, but overall good times.When did you guys leave?Nice. My buddy, after a losing night of poker ended up @ Harrahs rolling dice.

OK, guys. Wife floored me with a "we should go to Vegas" e-mail yesterday.
This won't be my normal guy trip so I'm looking for recommendations on a hotel. Has to be on the Strip. I'd like to impress her a bit without too severely damaging my craps bankroll. This will likely be a midweek trip in the next couple of months.
Wynn, Bellagio, TheHotel, Venetian?
I'm lost here. We don't do anything above Bally's with the boys.

I've stayed at the Wynn and The Venetian with my wife. Can't go wrong with either.At the Venetian we ended up with an almost free upgrade that ended up with concierge, open bar from 5-8 every night and a continental breakfast.I made up in alcohol ten fold

Wynn is top of the line imo, but the Venetian offers a great value. Great rooms and casino at a better price. Check the Palazzo for prices too.

Nothing wrong with Bellagio but try and get a renovated tower room. Last time I stayed there the room was a little worn and I heard the tower rooms are much better.
belljr
Footballguy
I forget what tower we got - it was the new one I think 5 years ago.They screwed up our reservation, so that helped. But the shops and dining area is really nice, plus they have the cheesy gandula ride, we passed on that but it's inside or outside

Caesar's Augustus Tower is nice

And very good mexican food at Taqueria Canonita. It's a must every time we go and you can watch the people in the gondolas.

Palazzo.My W is not a vegas type.She loved it, still comments today.ETA: if it matters, the Palazzo/Venetian and Wynn are the least smoky hotels/casinos imo (as a former smoker).

Bali Hai, next to Mandalay Highly recommended. The front nine was torture (I hadn't played in four years, played a lot growing up and in H.S.). Back nine was much better.Course was in great shape, we had first T-time so we were all alone out there for the most part. Some scenic holes too.

This is a must-have link for Vegas deals: Travelzoo Vegas deals. . Found a flight to Vegas in August from South Bend for $69 nonstop.

we got there about 11am vegas time on Wednesday. Left out first thing Saturday morning. Some of the best sites I saw were the people coming back to the hotel as we were getting a cab.

My wife and I went to B&B Ristorante the last time we were in Vegas. The dinner was good but you have to be a more adventurous eater rather than expecting traditional Italian. It is more of a country/peasant menu that uses some more of the interesting parts of the animals they serve (beef cheek, lamb's brain, sweetbreads, etc.). I like to think that I am somewhat of an adventurous eater and my wife certainly is so we actually ordered all of the above. Come on, it's not like lamb's brain is on every menu, why not, huh?It wasn't the best meal I have ever had but it was certainly interesting and memorable. I would suggest it as long as you're not expecting spaghetti or lasagna.

I second whomever mentioned "Seamless" as the strip club to check out. No, it's not as "balla" as the Rhino, but more money gets you further and when we last went, it was me, my gf, and two buddies and we had an absolute blast. I'd highly recommend it.

Tell me more about "seamless"Also - I'm going to be out there just with the guys in two weeks.What kind of regular club can we actually get into because i know how they are about "only taking groups with girls, or groups of girls, etc", and how do we get into it?I'm staying at TI, so I'm good with any club in that area, although i'm not a big fan of the actual club that is at TI

when you say 2 weeks are you talking 6/21-24? If so then I'll need to be wary of all +1 if that is the case.

I still need to make it to Mesquite. Wolf Creek looks great. I loved Bali Hai. Desert Pines and Rhodes Ranch are OK too.

Anywhere downtown except the Nugget, Circus Cirucs, Excalibur, Harrah's. Any of the cheaper places with $5 tables are pretty laid back, usually.
