    I'm a bit late to the party because I'm obsessed with Vegas and yet have only discovered this forum in the past few weeks. Suffice to say I'm now hooked!

    I live in the UK and my equally Vegas-obsessed husband (good job eh!?) and I are about to go on our 20th trip.

    We are slot players and again despite having gone numerous times are only recently appreciating how to work the comps system - beyond having a host. I don't think we're prolific gamblers and I'm 100% slots with hubs being 95% slots and the other 5% tables when he gets the Dutch courage.

    I prefer penny slots and am a sucker for the themed ones even though I know their payback is rubbish in comparison and the play accumulation is pretty pants too. Oh well.

    Until last year we were Platinum MLifers and happy with that but in the 2013/2014 cycle we were demoted because we spread our play about more. We're still Gold this year but I have to admit that I am jonesing to get the platinum one back but with only one trip this year instead of our normal two, I think we probably need to focus on retaining Gold [emoji16]. That being said, we are going to be there for 17 nights and a lot of damage can be done in that time (makes me sweat with fear and excites me all at the same time!)

    Anyway, I love reading everyone's trip reports and learning the tricks of the trade and for the next 20 days this is going to be my bible. Not that I'm counting or anything... I'm hoping to write a trip report whilst we're out there, but am not sure whether I have the permissions.

    Hope to chat to some people soon.

    Welcome!! So much good stuff on this board.
    With 17 nights in Vegas, I'm guessing you will have plenty of tales to tell here..
    Have the very best luck on your upcoming trip!

    Hi, thanks, I'm hoping there will be tales to tell! There will also be lots of pool time, got to get this pasty British skin bronzed up!
