Las Vegas – A Changing Cycle
There’s always lots happening in Las Vegas, even in a time of Covid-19 with around 800 live new cases each day. It’s been a year or so since I’ve been physically in Las Vegas, and it’s true to say I’m looking forward to being able to return there – if [...]

Las Vegas Pinball Hall of Fame
On this trip I was finally able to to visit the Pinball Hall of Fame. Run by a team of enthusiasts, and with all proceeds being gifted to the Salvation Army, the Pinball Hall of Fame has several hundred coin operated pinball machines, from a variety of decades, lovingly restored. [...]
Handpay on The Walking Dead Slot in Las Vegas, Nevada
It was a wonderful feeling - until the handpay itself came, and I was given only $1120. Why? The $480 difference was the 30% withholding tax (in cash) that the casino is required to hold by the US Government, for all players without a USA social security number. [...]
Bonnie Springs Nevada Is An Amazing Place
This year I was lucky to get off the beaten track a bit and go to a few places that had been on my travel list: Bonnie Springs Nevada, and Red Rock Canyon. Both were amazingly beautiful, so I'd thought I'd share these Las Vegas area photos with my readers. [...]

Mandalay Bay Shooting in Las Vegas – A Tragedy
So shocked to see the news about the terrible tragedy in Las Vegas, with 58 dead and over 500 injured. This beautiful and amazing city doesn't deserve that, nor do the many tourists visiting for amazing times. Its a tragedy whichever way you look at it, and my heart is saddened. [...]

The casinos had some great promotions on when I was in town, and I had a really good time. I managed to make some good headway using some of these promotions to get a slight advantage, albeit on a temporary basis. [...]

How To Break Even In Las Vegas
If you're thinking about a Vegas Holiday you're probably thinking about casinos. Most individuals who have ever gambled have no dreams of striking it rich when going and playing in casinos. Most of us know the greatest goal is to go in, play a while, have some fun, get some comps, and go home with about what you walked in with. Although our regular How to Beat the Casinos readers may well disagree with that! [...]
Bye Bye Riviera Hotel Casino Las Vegas
I was reading today that the final towers of the Riviera Las Vegas Hotel and Casino were imploded today, some months after the old hotel towers were imploded. This event now completes the implosion of the Riviera Hotel and Casino property, leaving the land vacant and ready for the Las Vegas Convention Centre expansion to begin. I have mixed feelings, having only been in Las Vegas 6 months ago, and having previously stayed for a week at the Riviera just the year before. [...]
