I will be out there from 15th june - 8th july.Maybe going to play a couple of wsop side events and lots of deepstacks plus some 1-2 cash games. Is there any value in the side events or should I stick to the deepstacks at the strip casino's.

Hope to see some of you there.

Well they still havent replied to my email,. got a decent chunk on aitken for europeon golf ew so once thats settled tomorow afternoon i will be closing my account if they refuse to pay up.

Thanks for your reply's,they still havent got back to me yet,what i didnt mention is that every market was incorrect as they had djorkovic at 6/4 for the current set. Another question is what would of happened if i had backed ferrer at odds on and ferrer had won, would they have given me the 4/9 or the 2/1 he should of been.

Who do i threaten to speak to if they try any funny business. Ive got a feeling i will be having  along drawn out argument with customer services but wont back down.

Any more help or advise appreciated as were talking a 540 difference here.

Plenty of losing action, will it help that i have 7k in my account , i placed some bets after the djorkovic bet came in so would i be able to demand these are cancelled as i only placed them once i knew i had won on novak. 7/4 wasnt really a realistic price but they did offer it and i took it so surely they have to honour the bet. If not can i say to them the 5/1 I took on sheffield wednesday for the league with them wasnt a realistic price and demand that money back to.

thanks

Hi All

I went onto ladbrokes tonight and placed quite a large bet on djorkovic to win his match against ferrer at a shortish price. I looked a few minutes later and saw Djorkovic had now gone out to 7/4 to the match which was a big contrast to the 2/7 on offer before. I wasnt sure if the sky coverage was delayed and there been an early break as the players were warming up on my screen so slapped £400 on Djorkovic at the 7/4 available. A couple of minutes later ladbrokes pulled all the markets on this before reintroducing betting around 10 minutes later.It was a tense and nervous match as djorkovic won it in 3 sets to my delight as i rubbed my hands at the prospect of a big win. It took ladbrokes well over an hour to settle the bet and to my disgust they had only returned £560 back into my account (presumably this is the price it should have been). I have emailed ladbrokes to complain and await there response. If they refuse to pay the rest what legal grounds have I got and who should i contact to complain. At no time did they contact me during the 2 and a half hour match to offer to cancel the bet and i wouldnt of placed this bet at the odds they have tried to give me.

Any advise would be appreciated.

thanks

ive been on , very helpful.

thanks

Thanks again, i am a nl holdem player so the venetian sounds good.

Regarding packages for wsop side events is this a good place to buy one or is it worth contacting the poker companies directly.

thanks

Thanks again for the advise, yes il be playing 1/2 mainly, regarding the cardplayer does that include the schedule for every casino or just the one i pick up the card player from. Is it cheaper to book my stay directly through the hotel or online through various third party sites. Where are best deepstacks usually held?

Thanks for taking the time to reply simon,

1) Yes i am aware that you dont have to play where you stay but its more a convenience factor, also is it safe to be walking the strip on your own in the early hours between casino's.

2) Regarding hotels which one's offer extended stays, alot that i have looked at online only let you enter dates for up to 14 nights. Regarding price I am happy to average $80 a night but dont want to be paying $200 a night etc. Do you know which online site is usually best to book my hotel with and if any of them do poker rates. Id prefer a hotel than an apartment as i am quite lazy when on holiday.

3) Thanks for the English lession lol

4) Where are the laundrettes, are they walkable from the strip as I dont drive. Also where are the shopping outlets located as I didnt see any on my last trip.

Regarding poker tournaments available i would be looking for $100 freezeouts and above or smaller rebuys, is there a website where i can find all the casino's tournament listings for that period. Lastly is it worth playing the wsop side events or is it better value playing the venetian deepstacks.


thanks

Hi all, new to the forum but would like to pick some of the forum guys brains. I am planning to go to vegas in mid june for just under a month, the first week will be spent on a stag party but the remaining time will mainly be spent grinding various cash and tournament games available. Once my friends leave after the first week I will be on my own so was wondering which hotels you would recommend that are reasonable affordable but in a good location for late night poker games. I would also like to know if it is cheaper to switch hotels or if any hotels offer deals for longer stays.I stayed at the rio during my only previous trip to vegas and found it a great hotel with lots of available cash games however it was a little away from the strip.

Would anyone recommend a casino where the games a little softer. I thought they were pretty soft in the Rio during the wsop but any other recommendations would be nice. Also could someone recommend some good mtts to play. I have a pretty flexible bankroll so would be willing to play any mtt up to the value of $700 and plan to play atleast one wsop side event. I would also be keen to find out the best places to buy packages for the side events at a reasonable prize.I havent booked my flight yet so happy whether the flight is included or not.

I would also like to know from people who have stayed for a longer period of time in vegas what they did about clothes etc, are the laundrettes in the casino to get your stuff washed or did you just take alot of clothes.

All help appreciated.
