Just got back on Sunday myself.

Went Thursday-Sunday and had a blast.

Hit up Tao Thursday when we got in. Marquee Friday. XS Saturday. Best time ever.

I've been to Vegas so many times, but this was easily one of the best, if not the best.

As long as you go with the right people who are down to have fun and spend some cash, you'll have a blast. Either way if you're not having a good time in Vegas, something is wrong.

Fees, how to place bets ect..

I'll be there April 22-24

Theres a NT Sportsbook thread over in S&T.  Might get more assistance over there.


(-) is a favorite and (+) is an underdog.  ex.  If the Lakers are -185 against the Jazz, you need to bet $185 to win $100.  On the flip side, if the Jazz were +200 you would bet $100 to win $200.  Obviously you dont have to bet $100.  The payouts would just be proportionate to that.

Basic sports bet you're paying juice.  Usually 10%.  A typical bet with points is at -110 (Bet $110 to win $100).  ex. Lakers are -12.5 (favored by 12) against the Jazz.  Therefore you would have to bet $110 to win $100 that the Lakers win by more than 12.5 points.  The half point is there so that there is a winner and a loser, no push/draw

  

Thanks. I'll check out that thread

I'll try out some online betting and get the feeling before I splurge out on Vegas lol

Where can I get this $1.99 Steak and Eggs?

Sunset Cafe at the Orleans Casino... There's nothing glamorous about this Casino but locals know wassup.

It's like a couple blocks away from Palms.

If you wanna live the true vegas experience you gotta blow money it happens. I managed with about 750-900 but I def wanna come down with a bit more next time. I came home absolutely broke.

I went for a full week. but you're really missing out on the drinking. for those that do drink some of the bar's have a lot of cool "tricks" they do that are pretty fun.
and the 80 oz funnels, eiffel tower, guitar are good.

things to check out: ****'s last resort. If you have a bunch of people with you that like to have fun and can take jokes this place is amazing.
cirque du soleil or any of the cirque shows are all absolutely amazing and worth the price.
spearmint rhino is the greatest place man has ever created.
Gotta check out a club or two it's entirely your choice
See the free water show / pirate show on the strip their not hard to find
rehab pool party at the hard rock will be the crazy time of your life if you're there on a sunday
One place i really enjoyed was paris, they had some great food in their and the price wasn't too crazy.
the eiffel tower is nice but you gotta dress up otherwise you're not getting in. also the price is more on the expensive side.
there's a trillion things to do in vegas I dont know where this 2 days talk comes from.

You must not be from NYC or la. Vegas is a weekend getaway thing for NYC heads. Id say 3days2nights is perfect.

Personally Thursday through Sunday is perfect for me and the crew.  Not counting "Burrito Runs".

Arrive Thursday mid-afternoon and check in, check out Sunday morning.

I'm from LA, so my perspective is a little different.  We always have tons of alcohol in the room for pre and post parties.  I've stayed in timeshares and suites.  Staying in timeshares has it's benefits (cheap, space) and it's cons (Off the strip) even though we are right behind Harrah's.  Last time we just hollered at some girls that were staying in the same timeshare complex and it was gravy. 

We always load up on booze at Costco (someone always drives

):









You have to stay boozed up, remember it's a marathon, not a sprint. 

@ maintaining the buzz.

Thursday- Check in, chill, hit the strip, gamble a bit, eat, find a bar to chill in.
Friday- Chill, drink, find a pool, gamble, hit up a club.
Saturday- Repeat of Friday.
Sunday- Pack, find a breakfast spot, gamble a little, head home, back to reality.
Monday- Request the day off to recuperate at home

.

I've found tons of deals on fatwallet, hit up dudes on vegas boards for passes.  I've skipped lines due to these pre-paid passes.  I've never waited more than an hour.

EDIT- 12k goes to a Vegas post,

damn we could have had a mini NT summit lol.  I was there last weekend too.  My boys were at tao and marquee the same nights you were.  Unfortunately I went on a 48 hr baccarat spree and missed everything.  Dudes even had broads lined up for me in the suite but I was stuck on stupid at the table

Just got back from a 4 day paid vacation from work, stayed at Excalibur.

Friday - Studio 54
Saturday - Jet (club goes hard, its a must.)
Sunday - Pure (walked right in and outta there quick which was free and got invited so we went to Rok after)

Jet was where all the girls are, easy to pull.
My friend and his friend picked up two prostitutes at Rok, I realized it and called them to kick them out right after I left the room.

Advice: dont go with anyone thats cheap and or broke, make them stay at home. I was about to get into a fight because of this.

Basically..I had one cheap bastard in my group and he was just pissin everyone off.  Didn't want to eat here cause its pricey, didn't want to get bottle service cause its pricey, and wanted to go off strip to gamble cause minimums are lower.  I just got pissed and did my own thing.  Everyone I was with was dropping racks to have fun and dude didn't even want to spend $100.  You have to pay to play in vegas.
