In five hours, I'll be winging it to vegas. Trip report when I get back.

Thanks to everybody for the tips and advice.

Ok..nobody has responded to this post all day. It's St Paddys day so we've either all been watching the news tonight or drinking green beer.

I personally hope King Argyle is presently filling out verification paperwork in order to recieve the $$$ from winning a huge progressive jackpot, while simultaneously riding the grain train.

Either that, or cavorting with an attractive stranger, either at the tables or in a comped suite.

Regardless, I hope he's having a great time.

Well said Mikey....but, why not both?

Thanks, Mikey. Your wish could have come true....more tidbits once I get sometime to compile the actual trip report.

A few general observations:

1. I have never experienced anything like March Madness at a Sports Book. Two thumbs up for the Bellagio, but the best atmosphere I experienced was at the Stardust!

2. The proliferation of 6/5 continues. Any place that offered a single deck game, seem to be offering a 6/5 version of the game. I avoided those like crazy.

3. Another proliferation I noticed, Hitting Soft Seventeen is a lot more prevelant than when I was there 6 months ago.

4. The Orleans rocks!!!! Sahara's tables are jammed packed from 8pm - 4am.

More info in a few days. Need to recover and get rid of the jet lag.
