    I went down the YouTube rabbit hole a couple of years ago. I've been watching Living in Las Vegas for a while, to get my fix until I can return some day. Thanks for all the other suggested channels.

    Okay this post may not be popular. I tend to have a few of those from time to time. But am I the only one that finds Slot Lady a bit annoying with all the hair flips etc. Gives me the impression she is more or less trying to tease guys so they pay for those super shout out things where you pay money to get your message more attention. Smart yes but still annoying. I went to her fb page and she has it filled with selfies of her in her workout gear. She is certainly targeting a specific market. and making money doing it. Genius marketing herself like that but again I find it annoying when I watch her videos.

    No. You are not the only one. I can't bring myself to watch her. I remember when I first found her and she was doing videos with some guy then. She seemed so genuine and more personable. Fast forward and I find that I can no longer watch her. I prefer YouTubers with more personality and who keep up some sort of commentary while they are recording. She just doesn't do it for me.

    Thankfully there are many others to chose from.

    I enjoy Matt Brittger; Dianaevoni and Brian Christopher. Some times I will watch Slot Queen and I used to watch vegaslowroller when his bets were smaller.

    There's another guy that really grates on my nerves. I can't remember his channel, but he's always talking about "flippin' and dippin". He has his wife recording while he's being loud and obnoxious. I also don't care for how his videos are edited.

    Whew.....glad I got that off my chest :)

    Especially on the buffalo machines. I seen videos of them getting up to 100 free spins. I’ve never come close to that. But I do get sucked in.

    I don’t remember the guys name, but he was playing multi line $100 slots. $12,500 per spin. Of course every win was a hand pay, but he simply entered what I guess is the four of his SS number, and continued to play. I don’t remember if he won or lost, but he had some million dollar hits.

    I think you’d enjoy this intuitive 1987 doc called Mob on the Run. Great vintage clips and still shot when Vegas was Vegas.

    That is just fast pay. They have it some places. Like Cosmo, and he is just entering is 4 digit players card code. Like you would do at some places to get to your free play or whatever. They let you sign one w2g like slip and they just accumulate them on your account by entering code and print you one cumulative result at the end of the day.

    It seems to me that some of the more well known You-tubers are using click bait when using the term high limit slots. I just don't think playing penny slots is hi limit.

    Show me some real hi limit on WOF,Top Dollar and Pinball then I will watch them all day long.:)

    I just finished watching this... absolutely fascinating.

    I was mesmerized by the scene made by Frank Rosenthal when the commission denied a fair hearing, and his harangue on Harry Reid. This will get saved and become a Vegas Must movie before future trips.

    And there is a segment where an interviewee is talking, and there is a spinning Stardust sign (starting at 39:24) in the background that I would love to have in my den.

    My favorites are Las Vegas walking the Strip videos. There's a couple of posters who do it in 4K. They usually just walk the Strip in real time, mostly from Wynn down to MGM/NYNY, a few extending down to Luxor/Mandalay Bay. They are long, around 1 and a half hours. Usually 2 segments, walking North, and walking South.
    What i love is the timing, the last one was just a few days ago, so if you are going to Vegas soon, like me, it gives you what's happening now, like new, or recent construction (like at the LinQ for the new Zip Line), construction at Park MGM, new stores, etc.
    What i find fascinating is the cleanliness of the Strip since it's been almost a year for me, no trash on the ground, no homeless people on the Strip including the walkways, etc.
    The last video i saw was Aug 17th in the morning/afternoon, the Strip empty and spotless. Yes, i know it's 200 degrees in the shade and most people were inside, but there are also long videos at night, also just a few days ago, more people walking on the Strip, but again, the Blvd was spotless.

    I loved it too... i love the history behind it all, but to have a special report from that time period... pretty entertaining. Casino is one of my all time favorites, but to see the footage from the actual people involved.. i couldn't look away. Not to mention the stories from all of the different people getting interviewed.
