No more DOLLAR full pay DOUBLE BONUS with the royal progressive.

No more QUARTER full pay DUECES near the front of casino near valet(did they move them elsewhere?).

LOL.....post from LVA


Apparently there has been a holocaust of 100% machines at the Palms, not just the revered FPDW progressives.

Thanks Ceasers

Sounds like the bean counters are tightening the reins on the gamble as revenue continues to erode from other profit centers
 
Re: The PALMS downgrades some longtime popular VP games

Casinos dont really need to offer ANYTHING even close to + expected value at least in Vegas. People are going to gamble like crazy rather they can win or not

Las Vegas is suffering a death of a 1,000 little cuts

Due to the poor management, these places have been losing money for years. They overreacted trying to cater to the luxury market and now while Las Vegas wants to serve up caviar and expensive champagne, visitors are looking for the days of the 2-1 coupon on the $9.99 dinner buffet.

The bean counters are tightening and tightening. The cocktail servers arent as many, the bathrooms don't get cleaned as often, hotel fees keep going up, the games and slots are tightened and tightened, etc etc etc on it goes.

Some of what you state is definetly true, however, I'm finding Vegas/Henderson a much better city to live in than 8-10 years ago......................
 
Re: The PALMS downgrades some longtime popular VP games

Vegas seems a bit iffy to me. Jobs seem to be very limited. Cost of living/ home values would offer great value. It should be a great overall value.....I just don't really want to go back there. I want something new and different for my last few decades ( ?) on Earth...

Vegas= been there, done that !

Why did Cornhead leave Vegas for Tampa and spend like 10 years there ? explain , Jeff !

After 19 years in Vegas................

1. Needed a little change of scenery
2. Friend lived in Orlando
3. Online sportsbetting was good and so were slots/video poker in the southeast

Would have spent only 4 years in Florida if I had not met Billsfan, and would have moved back to Vegas much earlier...(spent 9 years in Florida).


Can't express how happy I feel to be back in Vegas.

I'm glad you like it FH.

Are you planning to rent or buy a home now that you're there ?

San Diego more like Oceanside appeals much more to me, but is much more expensive.

Renting a luxury condo for 13 months..............then will decide on next option.

To be honest, do not even want to think about the next option until at least 2012 arrives.

When are you moving Doug?
