AoS,
If you are in Vegas this trip, take a trip out to GVR. It is very nice, and they would love your action. I think you will like the treatment you get there.
As far as going to new places, yes, you may have to book the room ahead of time, and put the room on a card. But if you play 4 hours at $100 avg, they are going to comp the room for you when you get ready to leave, so in the end, you will not pay anything, and you will now have a new place to play.
Always borrow money from a pessimist; They don't expect to get paid back ! Be yourself and speak your thoughts. Those who matter won't mind, and those that mind, don't matter!

It's called Wombi Rock Mountain but everyone just refers to it as Wombi Rock. I believe it's made of imported onyx and you know it was expensive. It houses the Vista Lounge.

Thanks Ace! I notice that a few of the gentlemen in the bottom right corner of this picture are sitting in chairs, and at first glance it also appears that the stickman is also sitting on a stool. However, it appears that the actual stick is partially hidden by the player on her left.

Seems really empty for a Friday. Does it feel that way?

Edit: Also, are there any "Good Luck" countermeasures by the casino due to today being Friday the 13th?
