Posted June 30, 2018 (edited) Hopefully you got your entertainment moneys worth. That is the only way to "gamble" No expectations just having a good time with what you would have spent otherwise. I just wish they would make it last for more than a few minutes. Wow it almost sound like hobbying. I hope you had a good birthday.

Posted June 30, 2018 First vacation went to Scottsdale Arizona, stayed at a casino there. Losing my ass, until I signed up and played in a daily poker tournament. Made the final table and came out ahead for the trip. Gambling, company of a fine lady from the area. Best way to come out ahead in any casino I would say. Happy late birthday. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I love Vegas and I have managed to visit, have fun and leave not BROKE. The one thing I haven't been able to MASTER yet is leaving Vegas without being WORE OUT LOL. Happy belated birthday to you........... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gaming revenue is not what it once was: under 50% of revenue and Vegas has seen declining gaming revenue for several months now. A lot of the play now stays in Macau. Here's a breakdown of the numbers over several decades: http://gaming.unlv.edu/reports/NV_departments_historic.pdf The "Other" category has been steadily growing. That are your shows, ultra nightclubs, pool parties, concerts, Cirque du Soleil. Room rates creeping up. Dining as well (read: more upscale big name chef dining vs. buffet visits, coffee shops). (Add: yes, gaming is still the biggest single item percentage-wise, but, becoming less important in the big scheme of things) Edited July 2, 2018 by NoCoGeezer 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 2, 2018 Love Vegas (and Blackhawk) but easy to see why it's an expensive trip - even if you do ok at the tables. Those are interesting stats. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
