1% please if I may.
Ahh, Mr PLO8 man - was great to catch up with you last week at The Vic.
Will edit the list now.
Thank you.

10 x better than a regular UK hotel? Suppose if you only ever stay in the Travelodge it might be true.
I don't think the food us that bad, the dim sum place is pretty solid for instance. The curry place is no more than ok and isn't that cheap. The buffet is ok, but nothing like the Wynn. Starbucks is Starbucks. I don't really mind the poker kitchen, definitely better than it was.
There is a bit of a stale cigarette smell about the place from memory, but guess Tikay wouldn't notice.
Never really had much of an issue taxi from the Wynn, Venetian or City center, to the Rio. Am never ever leaving 5 minutes before kick off though. You don't travel enough if that journey is a ballache.
Can definitely see the advantage with just been able to go to your room for dinner. Break feels too long to hang around and too short to get back to the strip and eat. Surely just got to go shot or bust first 4 levels tho? Probably not so hard now they have messed with the structures.

Meant to add you should try Trivago. No reason to pay much more than £100 a night for something very decent. If the Venetian is too much, try aria, that is too much the vdara and so on.

If you're staying for six weeks+ I'd definitely want to use more than one hotel, maybe three or four. Cosmo and Palazzo ftw.

Obviously Jedi Tikay is a popular chap and no doubt all of his potential action has been taken but if u have a spare 1% I'll take it. If not no worries and good luck when u go. Hopefully I'll be going for the first time later in the year, health and wealth all being ok.

Rent a car Pleno, then stay somewhere that doesn't reek of cigarettes and has a variety of restaurants that you might actually want to visit.

You should be aware that Mr Ambo once offered to buy all my action at 0.4. I'm holding our for a tad more.
Does my new name mean I can enter lady only events?

Speak to Kev Allen, Pads.
Pretty sure that he and Richie plot up at the Vdara, and it must be decent if they keep going back.
If you're going out there to play >100k worth of comps, it's a minor inconvenience to do a bit more on your living arrangements, and on some cabs.
