nice...i've not been in vegas for a while..4-5 years now.but I usually won't stay in a suite or room even if offer for free. haha the stories i heard once from a casino janitor. ghosts, crime scene etc...lols
the last time i was at a casino was about a week or two before Christmas of last year, some older lady strike the grand jackpot, about 12k on i think it was a mighty cash slot. it is a new slot i think never saw it before until then. I was very close to withdrawing some money from the atm to see if i can hit it too, but luckily i didn't have my debit card with me that day...haha so instead i took my 80 bucks...went to play some 15 dollar black jack and turn it into 240 some bucks after a hour or so. said, okay I got my gambling high...got into the elevator, and a middle age looking white chick was already in there. i asked her, they took your money too. she smile and said, in less than 10 minutes. i handed her the 2 one hundred bills i won. and told her, i don't care what she does with it, but just don't go back inside...haha i will never know...she got off the floor before mines.
maybe you need to go back. To some, vegas is like taking a trip to wuhan. A once or a few times in your life time kind of a thing. With us, we got flights to vegas in 1 hour. We can disappear to vegas for one night and head home and no one knows that we just got back from vegas. Vegas on a budget can be had. Let me break down the figures for those who doesn't know how the locals are doing it.
Flight : round trip is $100 or around there
uber: $13 to the hotel. $10 to the airport
Food, $20 a day can be doable. No buffet cuz those are in the $35 range for dinner
Alcohol is free if you are playing at them casino. You can fake the funk by putting 1 dollar into the machine and when the cocktail waitress be looking at you, you pull the 1 line 1 penny option to look like you are gambling but really now, it is only 1 penny being pulled. You order your drink and stop playing until she comes back with your drink. You tip her $1 for 5 drinks for 5 of your buddies. You cash out your 98 cents and you do it again at another location and at another cocktail waitress. Rinse and repeat.
Bar and some clubs are free. You walk the strip and look out for guys in suits around the clubbing area around the evening hours. They are giving out coupon for free entry.
Hotel is probably expensive with the resort fee but if you go on the weekdays, hotel is cheaper. I'm with harrah's properties so I get free resort fee with my players club being high up there. There are ways you can get your diamond level card by having the casino matches it with another competitor's casino card tier. You can also link a harrah's credit card so whatever you buy will earn you tier points. You can also rigged the system like I once had by using these roulette machine games. I place a bet on red and black and as long as the spin is not on green, I am even but I get credit on my player's card which bumps my tier credit up. I used to drop $10k on the table and I always give the dealer my players card. She gives me 10K worth of chips. I then play small, table min about $5 for fun. Win some lose some. Then my partner sits at the other end of the table and drops their own 10K with their card. We played at the wynn where there is this one chinese game where the odds are literally 50/50 odds. IT is better than baccarat. I bet on win and my partner bet on lose. I bet big about 1k a hand. My lost will go to my partner so we even. We do this until 1 of us loses all of our 10K. The pit boss will record my player's level as 10K loser. My partner will play a few more small hand and then leaves the table to cash out. My partner will give me back my 10k or close to 10K. We both just rigged the system. We do it again but at another table and about a few hours later to stay under the radar. This time, once loses, you tell the pit boss that you already lost 10K earlier and now another 10K and you asked if you can get a room comp or a buffet the least. If you lose 20K like that, I'll give you a basic room comp the least.
When you go home from your trip, the casino will send you all sorts of invitation with free rooms and free buffet and free shows and free other stuff just to get your loser face back.
You are now what I called "a whale" a high roller in vegas.
My vegas trip was not too long ago. Now, I got a free flight, free hotel stay at laughin casino, which is only 1.5 hours worth of drive south of vegas. I'm still trying to plan a free flight down, free hotel but check this. Once I'm down there, I'll rent a car and drive to vegas and do vegas then drive back up north to catch my free flight home.
I should blog my vegas journey and how I took vegas for peanuts. I read on how these youtubers be making money. Depending on your matrix and subscribers and stuff you presenting, you typically would get $1 for every 1000 views. So for 1 mil views, that is about $1000. Now to get to 1 mil views faster, you gotta build up your subscribers. Some quit their job just to become full time youtubers. Now imagine making $1000 for your 10 minute video. Do 10 videos and you will be making $10G in your sleep. You can do 10 videos in 20 days, given that the alternative day is for video editing. So in 20 days, you could make $10G. I think I am in the wrong business here. If PH Was youtube, I'll be up there cuz I know yall like to read my stuff. I would get a lot of subscribers for my nasty contents.
