* I am going to have the same write-up for Encore and Wynn in Las Vegas. The casinos are so similar in terms of games and location that I didn’t think they needed separate intro posts. Encore, attached to Wynn and of course also a Wynn property, has its pros and cons. On one hand,…

This is one of five videos from Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas. I am going to use the same intro post here for all of them. There are Terminals A, B, C, D, and E that I scouted for AP slots in 2025. Is it worth getting to the airport six-plus hours early…

Well, I said I wasn’t a big fan of Wynn and Encore’s location, but once you get to Fontainebleau, you start getting so far away from the heart of the strip (Caesars, MGM) that it doesn’t feel as weird for whatever reason. That may just be a personal feeling, as Fontainebleau is not all that…

This may be the most iconic casino in the world. You don’t need a slot hustler to tell you that, though! What can I tell you? Well, when I think “heart of the Vegas strip,” I think Bellagio. It’s next to The Cosmopolitan and Caesars Palace and not far from all the other MGM and…

*I am going to be a little lazy and include the same intro blurb for both the Palazzo and the Venetian. Yes, they are different casinos, but especially since I don’t frequent either one all that regularly and I only have so many unique thoughts in the chamber, I think it makes sense. *** Here’s…

The Cosmo just recently (mid-2024) came under MGM stewardship. It used to have a players card called “Identity”…how vogue! And that’s the atmosphere the Cosmo still projects: glamorous, upscale, fancy nightlife-seeming. You get the idea. Before the Cosmopolitan became an MGM property, I was told to leave on two separate occasions for slot hustling. I…

Update (July 23, 2026): Resorts World is starting to boot advantage players (or they may have been for a while, but I experienced it firsthand a month ago). It was more of a suggestion than a firm ban, though. Either way, be careful when slotting here. Resorts World is getting a bit far up the…

MGM Grand, for me, is a little overrated by what it’s built up to be. The place is enormous and it’s right in the heart of the strip near MGM mainstays such as Aria, New York-New York, and Excalibur, to name a few, but something about it turns me off. Maybe it’s the level of…
