    New to the board. My wife and I have been regular Vegas visitors since our 20th anniversary in 2003. 15 trips later, going back in September for our 30th. Staying in comped room at Bellagio for the second time. Big Wynn/Encore fans but love the mid-strip location.

    New players on MyVegas and scored a lunch buffet at B so I'm already feeling lucky.

    Looking forward to much good reading/writing here on the board.

    Welcome! Do you by chance play at any casinos in MO? We are in KC and rarely play near here as we just can't seem to win let alone stay even for an evening.

    Hey aliasyoshi - nice to 'meet' a fellow Missourian. We used to play in a KC regularly (2x+/month) but relocated last year so the trip is a little too far. We had great times at Ameristar and Argosy but not so much at the others. We now make regular trips to IoC in Boonville and are probably on the positive side of even money, net-net. We also used to journey to STL and play at Harrah's (now Hollywood) and had good luck. It's cooled down quite a bit since Hollywood took over but they send us room comps regularly. We only play VP, fwiw. Lumiere Place in downtown STL is also a fun place to play but no biggies.

    Happy anniversary later this month and good luck on your trip.

    -H

    Hi and Welcome!!!

    My husband and I also just relocated to Florida from K.C.

    He worked at the new Hollywood Casino in surveillance.

    We love Vegas, but we also liked Harrah's in K.C. Always had a little luck there.

    Anyway, enjoy this board and it is nice to have a fellow Missourian here.

    Kindly,
    K-9treatbaker

    Welcome and happy anniversary.
    I think staying mid-strip is the place to be too. :beer:
