Traveled to our favorite city for 7 nights, with a combined fun + tech conference (AWS Re:invent) agenda.

My hotel schedule ended up on Caesar's for 2 nights, Palazzo for 4, and Cosmo for 1. I had originally planned for Encore-Palazzo-Cosmo, but got Caesar's Palace Tower for 'free', so figured I'd save $300 vs. staying @ Encore.

Don't have the energy this afternoon to write full paragraphs, so thought I'd do some highlights.

Caesar's Palace Tower == Good, because of room quality, location, and 'free'. Points deducted for smoky casino
Smashed Pig for dinner == Awesome, because of beer selection, meet+cheese platter, and charming bar tender
Golden Gate bartop VP == Good, because of music, not horrible Bonus Deluxe paytable, and drink service
Caesar's sports book reserved seat == Good, because $100 + 3 free drinks is not a horrible price to pay for a relaxing NFL Sunday
Seersucker happy hour == Excellent, because of duck fat fries + prosciutto dust
Palazzo "normal" suite == Awesome, because room quality, sectional sofa, and location
Yardbird == Awesome, because excellent service, biscuits, fried chicken, and peach cobbler
Bouchon Bakery == Excellent, because of coffee and pastries
Julian Serrano == Excellent, because of food and service quality
Border Grill (Forum Shops) == Awesome, because of Tiger Shrimp tacos
Tom's Urban == Excellent, because of beer selection and food choices
Golden Gate Blackjack tables == Awesome, because of 3/2, music, dealers, and introducing co-workers to Fremont Street. Don't know why I play table games anywhere else, actually
Cosmopolitan == Awesome, because of free upgrade to fountain view, room quality, and location
Wicked Spoon == Tasty, especially when you can't decide what to eat. Desserts were meh.
Cosmo Sports Book bartop VP == Fun, especially when the free drink tickets keep spitting out

55 days to go until my next trip. Can't wait!

--edit== corrected Golden Gate VP game description

Nice summary! I wish I was better at doing that myself!

But the BP paytable at Golden Gate wasn't bad? I thought they had the same paytables as the D long bar, which includes 10/8/5/3/1/1 Bonus = 94.18%.

You sure you didn't mean 7/5 ACE$ Bonus (98.25%), or 8/6 Bonus Deluxe (98.49%)?

Yep, sorry it was Bonus Deluxe, not BP. Wasn't thinking too clearly by the time I got there that night:beer:
 
Glad someone (not a slam) found 100$'and 3 free drinks worth it for an nfl afternoon. Give me another 50 and that is my Sunday bet total. But I knew someone would be the target audience....just knew it wasn't me. Haha. This is why player card levels work so well. Separation of the masses.
 
Great summary and trip! Thanks for sharing.

I was hoping to do football central @ westgate, but after they ended that, I figured $100 wasn't too much to pay for a guaranteed comfortable seat for the entire day.

I also figure it saved me at least $200 by keeping me away from the video poker bar(s).
