  1. Tough loss in a close one
  2. Doesn’t look good now
  3. Caesars poker room back open as of yesterday in a weird location and space
  4. My last Vegas trip, my dad and I rented a bright green Lambo and drove it around the 13 mile stretch of Red Rocks and stopped and many of the hiking spots to switch drivers and take pics. Pretty damn fun and can’t beat the scenery.
  5. I would call Wynn again just to confirm what will be open and closed. Tonight on their earnings call they announced delays/pushbacks to their capex plans (due to tariff costs) including the remodeling of rooms at the Encore and other projects. So it’s possible some plans have just changed.
  6. Considering your answer I would think the winner could be Lotus of Siam (as mentioned above). It’s one of the best Thai restaurants in the country. Definitely make a reservation in advance it can be tough to get in at times. It’s off the Strip and not fancy. Many of us eat there every single trip to Vegas.
  7. We can recommend just about any type of restaurant but the choices are all over the place. Do you want an experience at a big Strip hotel with a view or something more low key and are you mostly asking for a steak restaurant recommendation or another specific type? If you narrow that down a little bit someone on here will give you a few winning choices
  8. If searching for better odds: The Strat recently joined Palms in shifting back to paying 3:2 when a player is dealt a natural blackjack on the main casino floor. Rio has been offering both payouts for blackjack since reopening under new ownership in 2023. The original blackjack payout returns more money to players than the 6:5 version that most Vegas Strip casinos deal to players outside of the high-limit rooms. During slow periods, Palms is offering 3:2 blackjack for a $5 minimum bet, though limits may be higher when the casino is busier.
  9. If anyone tried the big beef at Portillo’s give us a review I want to try that at some point
  10. Interesting https://x.com/john_mehaffey/status/1891295775604297818?s=46&t=w0pY-Fs4VAfKwHrB_iAkXw
  11. Rake went up at MGM properties in Vegas https://x.com/john_mehaffey/status/1888719696213819895?s=46&t=w0pY-Fs4VAfKwHrB_iAkXw
  12. Pretty good summary of how we got here. Also if you want $5 table minimums with the old school rules for craps and BJ try Ellis Island casino. https://www.casinoreports.com/las-vegas-fees-charges/
  13. https://x.com/lasvegaslocally/status/1888690559323374027?s=46&t=w0pY-Fs4VAfKwHrB_iAkXw
  14. I once attended a Vegas bachelor party with supposedly 17 people and we all stayed at the same hotel. Not once during the entire weekend did I see 2 of the 17 people but I was told they were in town and at the same hotel.
  15. Dealing with 25 people in Vegas is like herding cats. Is everyone staying at the same place and if so which one? A possible dinner spot for a younger large group is Battista’s Hole in the Wall. It’s more affordable versus most of the Strip restaurants and they can handle bigger groups and it’s more of a fun casual environment. Many people on this site have done nice steak dinners for bachelor parties but not sure about a group of 25.
  16. That bird flu is legit
  17. Good question. It seems like it. $1,000 for the reservation plus the $800 food/drink minimum spend. But it’s not entirely clear to me.
  18. Some Super Bowl pricing https://x.com/meltzvegas/status/1884278312710856740?s=46&t=w0pY-Fs4VAfKwHrB_iAkXw
  19. Bill Duvall of Lincoln Properties, he does not work for UT but often referred to as the CEO. One of the top boosters.
  20. https://www.pokernews.com/news/2025/01/oak-cliff-card-club-dallas-poker-room-47803.htm
  21. Highly recommend Peking Gourmet Inn one of the best Chinese restaurants in the country definitely make a reservation if you want to go
  22. I think Serrano is 74 and rumored to be retiring from the restaurant game but we should hear soon what is going into that space
