some un-named people have been known to register for everything and un-reg, and re-reg for the food vouchers....


not kidding.

kessler has denied that if thats who you are referring to

and it's dumb anyway, doesnt everyone who plays 10+ events end up with a bunch left over at the end?

this is incorreect. my friend unregged and reregged the main event 4 times because he kept getting a 9 seat

the missing an event policy is only if you no show and they have to pick your stack up from the table

I'd reckon the chances of Chainsaw wasting a food voucher are in the slim to none category.

Gaylord is good (a bit over-priced)
AAB&G is average bar food
Buzio's I have no experience with

What food allergies do you have Todd? I'm allergic to most types of nuts (almonds being the exception but they're still gross), I would think you can find stuff there that shouldn't be a problem unless you have celiac disease.

Assuming you are leveling but if not I was referring to snow skiing not water skiing.

buzios sucked for a long time but either last summer or summer before they changed chefs or food supplier or something and its pretty legit now imo

FYP

Just got back from Europe and over the next week I will be working on designs and getting shirts made. Not sure how much interest there would be but I was thinking 200 ish would be a good amount to bring down.

Reserve 1 shirt. Actually, make another thread for shirt reserves. Or just make a ton and trust they will sell.

Shirts would be sweet

some basic tips:

unless you're coming from the east on flamingo, going behind the rio to enter the parking lot is best. getting to the corner of twain and valley view and heading east on twain is my ideal way

You can call ahead and carryout/eat in enough places in chinatown to not be stuck at rio for food, but the even shorter 5pm dinner break may make doing so in 5pm events not practical.

There's an excellent new sandwich shop at roughly wynn and spring mountain called lee's sandwiches that may solve the 5pm issue. Viet-style baguettes and croissants fast enough to get in and out in time. Also options are in n out at trop and industrial and Thai style noodle house (recommend calling ahead to order if you know what you want, I've been in charge of this most dinner breaks last year and they all went really well...but I only make dinner break in 5pm events)

As others have said, if you are sensitive to temperatures while playing bring some layers.

Don't count on carpooling to make your transportation issues simple, read past threads about disagreements on who paid enough etc.

SLEEP. I'm not kidding, you're gonna need it, and that's the thing you get the least here by a long shot.

Tacos Mexico on Trop is easily the best dinner break option, and when that gets old its Pop's cheese steaks

Should you not indicate in some way that you're talking about online poker?

I doubt he's going to use my terrible design.

I will definitely buy a few shirts!

i could mass produce the shirts at a pretty decent price if there is enough interest for a large quantity.

i will wear one


























NOT

Yep,
I know a few people who are decent at photoshop and I have been thinking of some good ideas. Again just got back within the last 24 hours but hopefully will have something designed soonish.

The restaurants at the Rio comparatively are ****ing terrible. Of course you can find a decent meal sometimes, but eww, I try my best not to eat there.

Dont know if this has been asked yet but, if you preregister for a bunch of events and you make day 2 and cant play another one, will they automatically unregister you or how does that work?

Haha have celiac disease. Also allergic to dairy products (casein) and potatoes.

definitely need to unregister yourself.

Good luck. Third time there but first time for the whole bunch, just as excited

Btw, re Buzios ate 3 times last summer all with good results

If you feel like having a great burrito at any time of day or night... There is my Fav spot on Tropicana two or three lights past In-And-Out and Mc D's on left side of road.. I don't know the name of it though.. But it is HOF @ 3 am...

And as far as the rio.... I get the grilled chicken salad all the time in the Poker Kitchen, its great imo!!! The restaurant by the pool entrance is good too. There is a Bar all the way down by the chip-n-dale area (don't know the name obv) that has decent bar food also if you don't want to wait in line...

I guess I have it good because I don't eat much when I am playing... and if I am busto I just drive somewhere with friends to eat...

I have never seen an exclamation point ellipsis before but there you go. God those bug the **** out of me.

First place is called Tacos Mexico. It's the first restaurant I've ever seen where they were selling a car in the parking lot.

I'm looking forward to diversifying my Vegas chinatown palette (spelling it this way so Gobbo twitches)

Count me in for Thai Style noodle house for the 5pm dinner breaks, Jameson.
