I have spoken to a number of people and NO one seems to come back winning?? whats that all about...... I suppose that why vegas casinos are so lavish!! I do most of my money at the tables [ ] But everyone gets on the plane worth 1.4
 On the ITIN Simon, would they be able to look mine up at the Bellagio/Venetian, or should I just go and ask for one? I know that the Nugget cardroom manager is a tool who likes to be awkward, so want to ensure I don't have any problems if I do manage to sit on a horseshoe this summer

How it should work is they should ask you if you have one. You should tell them that it is on file at (insert name of first casino that created your ITIN for you)
They then call that casino, retrieve your ITIN number and insert it on the paperwork for you.
If the GN manager is a tool, then
a) go to the casino where your ITIN is on file at the start of the trip and ask them for the # (and store it in your phone) b) win something big in GN c) Tell them your ITIN # and collect in full d) don't tip him and tell him it is because he is a tool

I think Tikay has something to say on this subject! I had the pleasure of sitting next to someone with $55k in their back pocket the year before last. Still wasn't happy mind. I can confirm that I have come back in profit from the poker (played 2 cashed in two). Sure was up after expenses.

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

It should be on file at the Rio then, so I'll Skype them before I head out and see if I can get it that way, and if not I'll take a jaunt up.
I'll just tip the valets extra, they're always good there and don't object to bringing trays of shots when we're railing.

If you win a bracelet, you have no worries because they sort it for you

I'm reading that (or trying) , but still none the wiser about it and probably best just getting someone from the cardroom to look mine up for me in Vegas
