Vegas Trip Information for anyone looking to go this year.

WSOP confirmed they can offer ITIN numbers. Any other casinos done the same? I know there were problems with the Nugget in previous years, so I assume the answer is a no there.

How do you guys who stay downtown get to the Rio? Do you hire a car, or just taxi/uber or do you just not go there and stick downtown and strip?

Think the Aria said something about withholding, unless you were from a tax-treaty country. I'd guess that means they think they can, too.

I usually only go to the Rio if I'm going to play something, so have used the same guy for the last couple years. As he's reliable, and I can just drive my scooter right into the back of his car.

I don't even go to the strip much anymore, but use the same guy if I do. Uber is definitely the best option if you can use it, which I unfortunately can't, yet.

If we are lucky our friend from Phoenix drives us as he plays too ! Or if he isn't going
The night before we are always going to get up early get the deuce bus to ballys n the shuttle bus to the Rio -
around 11am/noon reality sets in n we pay $ 40 each way in a taxi with a hangover for company !
Personally I blame mark for being a bad influence

I never force anyone to play poker.

That Nugget $100k on the first weekend of June is ideal; can play a flight or numerous flights on the Friday, watch the Champions League final on Saturday and return to Nugget on Sunday for day 2* and crush.

*might not need to return to GN on Sunday.

Just for clarification, I fit in a Norwegian Air B787 row perfectly fine, thanks.

That's a workable deal.

To fly from LA to Vegas on SouthWest costs from $40, & the return flight costs $49, so the total round trip comes in at £300 + $89. Pretty good I'd say, & the Thos Cook flights are ultra reliable & punctual.

Yeah but you could save a fiver if you started in Yemen and routed via Gothenburg and Inverness.

Don't forget you can fly on Norweigan.  You just have to fly out before the end of March and hope the airline resumes flights sometime in the future.

What's people's thoughts on the £-$ rate obv very low at the moment at 1.19/1.20
Reports in the daily mail today suggest it could drop by 8% more as brexit negotiations proceed
Will it stop you going ?
Will you play lower buy ins
Do a bit less - my plan
Take a bit ? More ££ -also part of my plan 50/50 with do less

I don't want to not go but it's pretty bad ,as in the worst rate I've seen in 13 years of going
I'm thinking slow down n chill by the pool a bit more
