Looking for a good dispensary, staying at the Paris mid June. Something close by?

Best place to watch the champions league final today? I know screens are everywhere but which sports bar would you recommend which has some other fans watching it?

Depends what you’re looking for but I’d go w crown and anchor probably if you can get off strip. Not a ton of soccer bars… otherwise maybe I’d try circa. Most books will have it on bc there’s nothing else going on

Hofbräuhaus will show the game.

medmen on Harmon/paradise a little closer than Pisos on flamingo and Maryland.

price might me a little higher at medmen

True

What happens when you try to park an RV at the airport...

that's pretty awesome... never take your trailer to do a pick up.

When I arrived at the rental agency shortly before closing time, I realized I'd forgotten to bring my credit card with me. Long story short, I made a new reservation at Enterprise just now. Can anyone tell me if there is any basic insurance included by default? Should I just say no to any additional stuff they're going to offer me tomorrow morning?

I used Enterprise in another state recently and the answer to the bolded is No. You break it, you pay for it. if you want peace of mind they do offer a bumper to bumper coverage policy for like $36 a day. You're not liable for any damage to the car unless you did something that would be deemed intentional and or extremely reckless (i.e. driving thru a flooded street). Other than that, I'd pass on anything else they may offer you.

Thank you.

Your own insurance (assuming you have it) covers rental cars, so don't buy anything extra from the rental agency.

Not so sure about this. You're from GBR, yes? My experience is that personal insurance doesn't work internationally.

No, I'm from the States. Sorry, I must have missed the international element to this, and I agree that personal insurance generally does not extend internationally. If an American rents a car in Vegas they will be covered by their own regular insurance, but a Brit, I assume not, in which case I would definitely purchase it through the rental company.

Call your insurance agency. I (USA) am able to drive in Mexico, Canada, Spain, etc. but I need to get something from the agency to bring with me.

Sorry Brick, I meant Sheep from GBR, not you. My bad, unclear.

No, I'm Dutch. Anyway, thanks again for your input, folks.

So the cash bankroll is getting low, can you guys tell me what tournaments I can pay with credit card?

Are there any major casinos that don't accept credit cards?

The WSOP certainly does but it might be cheaper to get cash from an ATM instead of paying the 3%+ fee for using the card to buy-in.

I’m a cash game player and used to operating in cash 99% of the time, so buying in with a credit card is just something totally unfamiliar with me, and my bank only lets me take out $500/day with ATM.

Do other venues let you pay with card besides the WSOP? Looks like it’s gonna be the Milly Maker to possibly salvage this rough Vegas trip …

haven't played WSOP but in my experience poker rooms don't accept credit cards for buy-in

The WSOP definitely does. Haven't done it myself but one of those info sheets they have lying around even lists the corresponding fees.

I know you can't buy chips with a credit card at other places but thought if the WSOP allowed it for their events, places like Bellagio or Aria would allow it for their tournament series, too. I might be totally off here though, sorry.

The $500 withdrawal limit on your CC might be a good thing / bad thing situation in Vegas. Personally I'd not be comfortable with that limit but might obviously be for the best.

FWIW, you should also check if the withdrawal limit is for a 24 hour period of time or for the actual day. If it's the latter that might depend on your "home" time zone not Vegas time. Some of my cards are from the CET zone and use the actual day, so when in Vegas I can take out the daily max at 2:59PM and again at 3:00PM.

You may be able to get an increase in your ATM withdrawal limit. I got mine increased to $1000 just by asking.
