Hi there guys,

Thought I'd pick your collective brains on here, as it seems that flight prices have gone insane recently.

I won a Grosvenor Poker Colossus VEGAS package online last night, and part of the package is £1000 for flights/spending money.

I'm looking to take me wife with me when I go the dates are (2nd June - 9th June), but don't mind adding a couple of days onto the end if I can find the flights for the right price.

Any good tips on which sites to use, or when to book, or if any credit cards can garner loyalty points to use (we also have 53k avios points between us).

Thanks in advance,

Ben.

Best looking deal I've spotted after a quick look is £2.2k for 7 nights at Linq, and flying Virgin direct.

You'll have a couple hundred bucks in resort fees to go on that, too. You're centre strip, and right in the middle of the new esplanade type area and hi-roller etc.



Thanks mate, forgot to say the 2nd June to the 9th June we have accom sorted for us at the linq.

Managed to find some flights, thurs 1st - tuesday 13th (direct for £800 each). Seems like Main Event travel who are organising the accom will sort us out with the day's stay the day before and then were going to have the last 4 days (9th-12th) at the Aria on 2 x 2 night "smartervegas" promos with 2 x $100 resort credit over the four days.

Shocking News.

When I first started playing live Omaha, I jumped straight into the big cash game at the Broadway, Dave was a regular in that game and I remember being in total awe of his fearlessness and level headedness, he'd consistantly win huge pots and always seemed to get it in massively ahead.  I was out of massively out of my depth and I sat next to him and he taught me so much about PLO.

I also remember him playing in a biggish tournament at one of the Broadway festivals and making it to the final three players.  The other two players tried to broker a deal with him but he turned it down flat.

These two players then made a deal with each other that they would effectively play together agasinst Dave and share the resulting amount cash they both won.  I remember that lots of people knew about this deal and thought that it was a bit underhand, but Dave couldn't have cared less, he won the tourney in the next 6 hands as I recall.

RIP Dave, a true gentlemen.

Thanks Tighty,  she's always been really great helping me out in the past and answering all my annoying questions.

I'll just have to sit tight and wait to hear back from her.

Just noticed a post from Simon 45 minutes ago on facebook, publicising two more scheduled $109 "50 seat" mega sats for tonight and Saturday night.

Im looking for advice regarding a $109 mega sat ticket that I had in my account that for some reason has now turned "inactive".

I have been in contact with Nicola about the matter earlier on today, but since then, communications with her have gone quiet.  The last email I received from Nicola was along the lines of "try logging into your account now, I think they've fixed it".

The issue is still "unfixed" hence my recent post on facebook.

Little bit stumped as what to do next, or who to speak to get this resolved.

The latest episode of Inside No 9 (s2e2) is one of the best pieces of television I have seen in quite a long time. Highly recommended.

THIS.

The best stand alone 30 minute piece of TV I've ever seen.

Sorry to continue this thread hijack Tikay,

Regarding the VIVA Las vegas package:

Do you have to travel over on the 4th July, or would the 5th suffice?

I really want to play these satellites, but obviously don't want to invest time and money towards a prize that I can't actually utilise.

Hi,

You can travel any day you wish, I would assume. Your hotel room (for that package) will just be vacant that night presumably.. Probably best to let someone know in advance though, in case they let the room go.

You book your own flight, using the cash they send you for flight and exes.

As far as I can see, all that you miss if you go out on July 5th is the 4th July party, which is a sort of mixture of Welcome Party and Independence Day knees up.

Make sure you arrive in time for the Main Event though. Be a bummer to miss that.

Good luck, be great if you could qualify.

Thanks Tikay!

Well that was waste of time!!

Think thats the last time I play at satellite on this site, havent been that frustrated for a long time.  Real shame because the 50 seat guarantee suckered me right in.

Don't know if anyone else is struggling with the connectivity tonight, Im literally tearing my hair out trying to play this 50 seat satellite to the grand prix.

Play one hand, get disconnected, play one hand get............

I was really looking forward to 12 Years A Slave after rave reviews and zomg critical acclaim including 9 Academy Award nomiations. However, it simply isn't THAT good and I felt rather deflated after sitting through a somewhat mediocre production. I often feel the controversial subject matter of movies can inflate the praise heaped upon them by critics and this film is a prime example. Watch Roots if you want a top slavery flick or Django for a more light-hearted but equally first rate watch. In reality it was just ok.

Totally agree, I was utterly bored through pretty much the whole film.  I'd been looking forward to watching it and heard so many positive things from lots of different people.  FWIW I also felt that the lead actor's performance was not "Oscar worthy" he just looked confused for the entirety of the film.

Every Oscar that this film wins, I feel will be "stolen" from the cast of American Hustle/Dallas Buyer's Club.

Watched prisoners last night.

Weird.

Cinematography - very good.

Pace/plot starts off excellent. Then towards the end totally loses its way. Plot holes galore. Yet, I found myself enjoying it -

 I thought at first 'it was just me' - ie, i missed some logical explanation of various sitatuations/characters when i wasnt concentrating, but straight after watching I went onto IMDB. Yep, plot holes/lack of explaination galore.



Yeah its one of those films where as long as you don't pick it apart too much, it works, and is carried well by some great acting.

I was pretty much the same as you, I thought "hang on, but what about the, when did that, but how can that" etc, but still enjoyed the film on the whole.
