    Robinson After Action Report, Sept 8 ~ Sept 12, '24

    1. Before leaving. 1.1. So, I went to the credit union to withdraw the bankroll. As the funds were being counted out, the teller leans over and quietly says, “Mister Robinson, to protect you and us, I want to ask you why you’re withdrawing these funds”. I suppose that given the color of...

    Get those cards in the air! Solo, live, poker heavy TR (1/17-1/26)

    It's 16:30pm GMT and I have another 7h 16m on this flight to Dallas Fort-Worth before connecting there for a quick hop to Vegas, so thought I might as well start this TR. So this is my 6th trip to Vegas since November 2021, which for someone who lives in Europe, is slightly ridiculous. Two of...

    Yet another Adam novel length solo poker trip...Oct 11th - 21st

    And I'm off. Again. I don't choose the best times for these trips, but you have to take value where you can get it, or in this case, use it before you lose it! This is a trip that was originally planned for November, but a couple of minor issues has meant that I've brought it forward. Namely...

    MyVegas Excalibur Room Comp

    I have been playing myVegas for awhile but haven't actually redeemed any offers. How far in advance would you recommend redeeming room comps? I have enough points for 2 nights at the Excalibur and the dates I want are on the list but the problem is they're only 2 weeks away. Is there a way to...

  8. Casino with best (small) comps

    I will be going to Vegas for my first time in October. I was wondering which company or hotel has the best return rate on comps. I will never play enough to get any type of room comp, but what about a meal comp, or money towards a meal or buffet. Are certain Casinos better then others? Do...

    Help with Casino Project

    Hey folks, I am assisting with a hotel-casino renovation project near the Strip in Las Vegas. I can't be too specific in describing the property, as you can understand, but it is a block off the Strip (google maps says about a 12 minute WALK to a major hotel on the Strip). I think there's a...
  10. Hard to find souvenir

    In 2009, my first trip to Vegas, I stayed at Excalibur. Somewhere in the hotel/casino was a small stand or shop that had miniature neon signs, and I bought one that said "Texas Hold 'Em" and had 2 playing cards as part of the design. A few years ago, it was broken while the house was being...
  11. Any Hotels with Free pool Chairs and Umbrellas?

    Hello, I will be traveling to Las Vegas for a conference In early August. My Wife will be coming with me, other than her plane ticket, her meals and things she rents, my company will be picking up the tap for the trip. The desert in August isn't my ideal vacation destination so I rather not...

    Amazing Lucky Trip to Vegas Tuesday March 15, 2016 to Wednesday March 23, 2016 Another Vegas trip planned about two months in advance. Once again my wife threatens to divorce me if I go to Vegas and once again she calms down and realizes I too have a right to have some fun in my life...

    Bitten by the Las Vegas Bug... hard. Planning ahead for next trip!

    As per my trip report on my first Las Vegas adventure for my birthday, needless to say I was bitten very hard by the Las Vegas "bug." Never too early to start planning ahead (and saving up) for my next visit... Right now, these plans exist only in my mind but I really hope to be able to go back...

    WINNER WINNER!! April 7 - 9 Excal TR

    I hadn’t been to Vegas since October when I went for my car club’s annual show, so I just had the itch to go and get out of town. I had a decent offer from Excalibur for 2 free nights, resort fee comped, $50 FP and $50 RC, so I booked it to check in April 7th and check out April 9th. I set the...

    The Parts of the Strip

    I had this after checking map of the Strip.... What Strip resorts would you consider to be part of North, Central or South Strip? I would consider: North: Stratosphere (though unoffically northernmost), SLS (offical northernmost), Circus Circus, Fontainebleau, Riviera (closed to be LVCVA)...
  18. Steakhouse at Camelot - Excalibur

    Is there a bar / lounge area where I can eat as a solo diner? If not I'm going to make a reservation as a single... Any recommendations on must have menu items? I'm leaning toward filet and lobster, with an appetizer, as I'm hell bent on getting to $100.00 to take advantage of a myvegas...

    Bad rules at electronic blackjack at MGM properties

    In the past, I've enjoyed playing the big electronic blackjack machines, often they would have great rules. On this trip, most of the ones I checked at MGM properties have really downgraded. The best one I found was at Excalibur and it was only 6/5 for blackjack. But, most were only paying...
