That whole section of strip is going to disappear soon. Unless they stop building due to the downturn.<BR/><BR/>Slot players have smartened up and become very selective about what they play. They need to drag the casual players to the bandits and make new slot addicts.<BR/><BR/>But don't get me wrong - I love Vegas, for about 3 days at a time. But I can see why people aren't going as much these days.Astinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04349033187012323688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30420753.post-20006147732162074922008-05-06T13:19:00.000-04:002008-05-06T13:19:00.000-04:00I just got back from a weekend in Vegas. I hadn't...I just got back from a weekend in Vegas. I hadn't been there in 11 years, so I really noticed the changes.<BR/><BR/>It was impossible to find a $5 blackjack table. I found a few places with $10 tables, but this small number of tables were full.<BR/><BR/>I remember when the Stratosphere was the talk of the town. Now, it feels like a dive. (extra soft and squishy tournaments though :-))<BR/><BR/>We had a great time. For us, its still a destination with things that we can get around here. Poker tournaments in Southern Minnesota are few and far between. We travel to Iowa for NLHE, Vegas is just more fun than Iowa.<BR/><BR/>Our entire trip was a promotion from a local casino and when we got to Vegas, the offers for more free stuff were everywhere. Lots of free slot play. Heck, I made $100 using the free slot play...but then again, I hate slots and only did it cause they were offering me free money. I like free money.OhCaptainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09399011365659793142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30420753.post-6363956202548280152008-05-06T13:04:00.000-04:002008-05-06T13:04:00.000-04:00sounds like we'll be in vegas the same time. woot....sounds like we'll be in vegas the same time. woot.ljhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12498905539526241390noreply@blogger.com
