Maybe I can help, but first let me translate your post into English:

Dear LVL,

I'm planning on going to Las Vegas for the WSOP next summer and am trying to find some information so I can plan everything out. For example, what are the best hotels to stay at for a discounted price? What hotels have the best poker games for 1/2NL and 1/3NL? What are the best places to eat out there without paying an arm and a leg?

Sincerely,

DimeBagNit300


My answer: get off the pipe and search

Best thing to do would be to open another account and start over next year.

Re: wsop 2013

Eco74,

What an awesome post!!! Thank you very very much. I was just thinking about this guy and his desire to travel to the 2013 WSOP. My hopes and prayers for him this morning were that you he would become literate during the next 12 months. You have given him much of what he needs to start that long and difficult path. I hope he appreciates the great service you have done for him. Perhaps for an appropriate fee you could continue your work all year long.

Re: wsop 2013

DimeBagNit300, are you still here? If you are, I sincerely want to give you some help.

First off, it is amazing that this thread is still open. Usually a thread like this gets closed pretty quickly, but more on that later. Initially, I wanted to post something that made fun of you, such as all of the rooms for 2013 are already booked, but somebody beat me to it.

I have decided to take the helpful route instead because I believe we do a disservice to 2+2 noobs by mocking them, closing threads, and giving no explanation to them.

You need to understand that these forums operate by some rules that, at the moment, will make no sense whatsoever to you. If you break them, you will be made fun of and treated like garbage and rarely will you be offered a sane explanation for what you did wrong and how to fix it.

Here is what you must do:
1) Read the stickies with the rules for the particular forum you are about to post in before you post.
2) Write in complete English sentences and spell words correctly as much as possible for your next 100 posts...then you can start trying to cut corners.
3)Attempt to SEARCH for an answer to your question before posting it.
4)Before hitting submit, read your post out loud and ask yourself if what you have written will get the responses you are hoping for.

Now, to answer your original question(s), so that this thread can be closed:
The answer to all of your questions is the Imperial Palace. You must now do some searches on the site to understand why that is the answer. This is like your homework, go do it.

Re: wsop 2013

Dear LVL,

Can someone recommend some decent hotels and restaurants for the 2035 WSOP? Not for me, but for my son/daughter, who is planning to play. He/she has not yet been birthed (nor conceived), but he/she will be excellent at poker and looking to play some events in 2035. I plan on raising him/her in a wondowless Skinner Box and drilling him/her on implied odds and calling ranges beginning at birth. So would the IP be a good place to stay?

Oh, also looking for advice on how best to avoid radioactive fallout and the rampaging CHUD's on the postapocalyptic Vegas streets. Shoud they take Koval?

I'd stay at Circus Circus, they're scheduled for a renovation in 2034 so it should be nice. You will also be near the famous $975 hot dog next door at Slots 'o Fun.

You can take the freeway to avoid the rampaging CHUDs, but it will cost an extra $5 so it's not worth it. Generally though if you just avoid the smoking crater where IP/Flamingo/Harrahs used to be, you'll be ok.

Re: wsop 2013

I remember my first time in Vegas about 20 years ago, they were building Treasure Island and I got free popcorn at Westward Ho, then kicked out after one pull of slot machine for being underage, staying at Sands for $25 and $3.99 steak n eggs everywhere.

While a lot has changed in 20 years, the infrastructure is still basically the same...will it change more drastically in the next 20 years?

Initiate hijacking of thread and renaming "What will Vegas look like in 2035?"

Re: wsop 2013

New Frontier Hotel and Casino
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The New Frontier was a hotel and casino located on the Las Vegas Strip within the unincorporated suburb of Paradise, Nevada, USA. It was the second resort that opened on the Las Vegas Strip and operated continuously from October 30, 1942 until it closed its doors for good at 12:00 A.M. on July 16, 2007.

The Longest Strike
From September 21, 1991 until February 1, 1998 members of the Culinary Workers Union Local 226 in Las Vegas staged a strike against the New Frontier and the Elardis. A settlement was reached on October 28, 1997 when Ruffin announced he would purchase the New Frontier from the Elardis for $165 million. The strike ended when Ruffin officially took possession.

According to an article in the Las Vegas Sun, the following events occurred during the strike:
17 CWU Local 226 strikers died.
106 babies were born to CWU member mothers who have walked the picket.
The Dunes, Landmark, Sands and Hacienda were all closed and imploded
More than 21,340 hotel rooms were constructed in the Las Vegas Strip.
Construction on an additional 19,000 rooms and suites was started.
235 of the original 550 strikers had walked the line in shifts manned 24 hours a day.

In the next 22 years, insert the name of any CET property in the above story. Don't know why this is one of my first lasting memories of Vegas, but was amazed that these guys were as persistent as they were. In the end, all they accomplished was getting the hotel demolished. Guess it was worth it.
