He says it's for moral reasons and he doubts the technology for age verification.

Which is pretty LOL for a casino owner to cite moral reasons.

The likeliest real reason- he's behind the curve when it comes to being able to compete online once it's allowed since his competitors have a leg up.

Secondary real reason- who the **** knows how his mind works, since he often comes up with some ass-backwards logic for his decisions.

Re: LVL FAQ, Quick Questions, General Vegas Discussion, Etc

Anyone have an idea on where a good place to stay is that has a suite that would fit 3 guys comfortably (3 beds)? I'm willing to spend money but I assume it will go much further at something that isn't Wynn or Encore like.

Probably Planet Hollywood, people have said. I think Mirage has a hospitality suite with three beds. Three-bed suites are few and far between.

Re: LVL FAQ, Quick Questions, General Vegas Discussion, Etc

first you need to decide if you really need 3 beds or if 2 and a pull out couch will work. as eco said, the former is much harder to find (and more expensive) than the latter.

2 beds + pull out couch you can find almost anywhere.

I believe all the rooms at Palazzo come with a pull out couch. Venetian rooms don't.

Re: LVL FAQ, Quick Questions, General Vegas Discussion, Etc

Here is and idea I have but have not implemented for the 3-person 3-bed problem. You buy a self inflating air-bed from Wal-mart, either before you get to LV or when you get there. They are under $50 and are not that bad to sleep on. You would bring your own sheets. There will be two queen beds in a standard room for your two buddies. So there will be plenty of pillows and there will be an extra blanket. Either deflate and put the bedding away each morning or speak to and tip house keeping extra to keep them happy.

Re: LVL FAQ, Quick Questions, General Vegas Discussion, Etc

So much nit in this room sharing discussion.

A) Get a room with a couch with a pullout bed or just a couch
B) Get a rollaway for $25/night and or tip housekeeping $20 to say they cancelled it and leave it in your room anyways
C) Share a bed

Hotels that fit this list: PH, Cosmo, Aria, Palazzo, Venetian, Mirage, TI, Wynn, Encore

(A) I have not found a standard double room that has a couch with a pullout.
I've seen them in King bed rooms. I tried sleeping on the couch in the
Orleans room, but it just two short for me and I'm only 6 feet.

(B) Maybe this.

(C) No thank you.

Re: LVL FAQ, Quick Questions, General Vegas Discussion, Etc

What's with everyone on 2+2 not wanting to share a bed but nitting it up otherwise? Aren't you s-faced/exhausted when you go to bed anyway? Absent somebody lugging a CPAP or something, what's the big deal? Is it the lack of practice the average 2+2er has with sleeping with a love interest?

Re: LVL FAQ, Quick Questions, General Vegas Discussion, Etc

Thanks guys. Going to go with a two-queen room that hopefully has a pull out or maybe just a rollaway bed. Seems like my best options for two queens and a couch is the venetian or palazzo? Unfortunately it doesn't look like the Wynn two-queen rooms have a couch but I think that the Encore ones do but that's about twice as much.
