    YEAHHHHHHHHHH I KNOW. i was playing there and won so much more. the trick is to sit towards the end. less gambling on chance and a little more on strategy.

    i always sit at the end, too. but this time i lost. BIG. but i was there for a very very long time. haha, i went through dealer A, dealer B, dealer C, and then dealer A came back. and i always talk to everyone on my table, so the guy next to me started introducing me to dealer A. and dealer A was like, pffft, i've known her for longer than you!

    you know how on single deck, the payout for blackjack is only 6 to 5? so, one of the dealers said it's better to double down your blackjack and hope for a 10. one guy tried that, and we were all cheering him on. haha, he won like that twice, and tied once, so it paid off in the end.

    and nicer hotels do make a big difference. i've been there 3 times, and upgraded each time. binion's horseshoe --> luxor --> venetian. the wynn or the bellagio next time! even though the venetian was incredibly nice.

    and le village is the buffet in the paris? i never tried, but i heard good things. i wanted a crepe though, but everytime i was in the paris, i was never hungry.

    i did have this .. thing... with the rope boy at the eiffel tower.

    My ultimate dream in Las Vegas would comprise of the following experiences:

    -Stay at the Mandalay Bay, unless I find a better package
    -Wake up in the morning, open the window, and see the barren dessert
    -Swim, float, and Sun tan during the day
    -Drive to the Red Rock Canyon and camp out there!
    -Eat @ 20 decent restaurants (no more than 5 buffets), including breakfast
    -Chill & Party at 10 night spots, such as this one:

    The Spice Market buffet inside Planet Hollywood is a good choice for a great buffet experience without burning a hole through your pocket . And for those of you who can afford the higher end buffets I would recommend MGM grand, they have an amazing selection of seafood there.

    Shopping wise, the Fashion Mall is probably the best place to shop on the strip, it has a huge selection of stores to choose from and the store prices are reasonable. That said, don't expect to find any good bargains in any of the shops at the Venetian They have the creme de la creme of shops there. If you are seeking items that are rare and or exclusive and money is not an issue for you that is precisely where you would look. Otherwise, you may find yourself in a very boring and depressing shopping experience.

    Other places to shop includes street vendors right on the strip. You can find affordable and very nice accessories, trinkets and souvenirs there. The best part of it is, you can haggle with the shop owner before making your purchase.

    As for clubs, Vegas is huge on clubs. There are probably more than a dozen of clubs here in Vegas. The resort that you stay in will usually give you free passes to most of these clubs if you request it. And although, I'm not much of a club goer myself but I do know that Club PURE is extremely popular here. It is the place to go if you want to meet celebrities. Last June when I was there with a few girlfriends of mine Nelly Furtado was the guest performer.

    yeah, i think pure and tao are supposed to be the best clubs.

    Would any of you get married in Vegas? I think it would be a pretty cool idea, though apparently it's only in legal there...so whatever happens in Vegas stays in Vegas muhahhaa...

    A honeymoon in Vegas would be awesome! I was reading their packages when I was there and going gaga-eyed.
