Newkirk’s Notes – comments on Las Vegas from AccessVegas.Com publisher Ted Newkirk:

Hello From Las Vegas! Harrah’s Entertainment (Harrah’s, Ballys, Caesars Palace, Flamingo, Paris Las Vegas, Imperial Palace, Rio Suites, and about 35 other casino properties worldwide) has received a $15.05 billion buyout offer from a couple of investment firms. This is very recent news, and not much fall-out yet. I’ll give you my take as we learn more.

In a much more interesting note, Harrah’s (the company) is going to acquire the Barbary Coast from Boyd Gaming (the people soon to blow up the Stardust and build the $3.5 billion Echelon Place on that area).

For those wanting more details and my take on how this will affect visitor room rates, you can read my recent blog post Harrahs Getting Bought Out, Las Vegas Condo Hotels Good For Visitors?

We say goodbye to Clint Holmes and the show Splash as this month begins. We’ll say more about Splash next week, but we can’t say enough about Clint Holmes. He was one-of-a-kind, in the mold of Sammy Davis, Jr. (with talent to match).

Many move to Las Vegas and simply count their money, but Clint was out and about, available for charity and always engaged in the community. He’s off to London to fulfull a life-long dream of starring in a play he’s written and we wish him all the best. We leave you with a couple of Clint Holmes tidbits to check out:

Clint Holmes leaving Las Vegas to make the world his stage (streaming video news report)
“What Kind Of Fool Am I” (streaming audio from his 2006 PBS special, courtesy of PBS)

We are running our review of Gerry McCambridge – The Mentalist, but if you want to see him (and you should), act fast. He is playing at The Stardust, and the hotel does close at the end of this month. We arranged to see the show before the hotel closure was moved up, and had an internal delay as our shows writer Nancy is expecting her first child! We are excited for her, but for obvious reasons, we’ve been giving her some extra time to get assignments done to cope with the ups and downs of a first pregnancy.

Bottom Line: Go see the show if you are coming in the next month. If not, read about it here as the show is very popular and certain to find a new Las Vegas showroom soon. We’ll keep you posted!

Enjoy This Issue!

Show Review: Gerry McCambridge – The Mentalist

Reviewed September, 2006
by Nancy Dickinson

It’s plain good ol’ Las Vegas tradition to capture the awe of viewers with dynamic props, extravagant effects, unconventional talent, and unparalleled showmanship (though often an overkill). One man, however, opens doors to the hearts, emotions, and spirits of people using entertainment weapons that far surpass the need for a stage crew: His mind and the minds of those he encounters.

Gerry McCambridge, better known as “The Mentalist,” has the undeniable ability to get into the heads of any and everybody. So much so that his 20 year cerebral career journey has taken him from celebrity events to a major NBC television series to his own full blown show at The Stardust. This man knows what is going on in the head of any person at any given time, facts ranging from their specific idiosyncratic personal habits to the exact name of their very first crush…and he is so freakishly accurate.

Readers Write – Hello ,

I look forward to receiving your newspaper and finding out about all the changes in Las Vegas. My husband and I love going there for holidays the only complaint we have is that there are NO DIRECT FLIGHTS throughout the year from SCOTLAND. We only have direct flights for around 6 weeks in the summer which we did use last year. After that we either have to get a flight across to America then get an internal flight to Las Vegas or fly down to Manchester or London for a direct flight from there. By having to do this it adds a lot of journey time onto your holiday and especially on the return journey it is very tiring. Having to do this puts us off coming on holiday to Las Vegas. Even if there were to be one direct flight per week from Scotland I am sure it would be filled as we know a lot of people who do travel to Las Vegas and they also find it hassle with all the extra traveling.

I don’t know if you can suggest this to the holiday companies and see what type of feedback you receive. I know if the traveling was to be direct then we would visit oftener than we do.

I look forward to your reply and thank you.

Anne Rodger

Ted Responds – Anne,

Thanks for reading and visiting when you can. I know it is a LONG way to fly.

Airline flights are partially supply/demand and partially based on how many flights various governments allow between their countries. The best thing you can do is contact airlines that serve your area and specifically ask why you don’t have various direct flights to the U.S. that would be of interest.

Outside of a non-stop from London a few days a week (Virgin I believe), virtually everyone has to fly to the U.S. and then change planes. If you find out anything from airlines on your end that would be of interest to our readers, let us know. We have many readers in Europe.

Newkirk’s Notes – comments on Las Vegas from AccessVegas.Com publisher Ted Newkirk:

Sorry we are running late this week! We had a couple of technical glitches, but our excellent staff (especially Amy) saved the day. Although this issue is dated for last week, the news is 100% up to date as we post it.

Quick follow-up on the cabbie topic we’ve been discussing the past few weeks. You DO have a right to dictate your route to a cab driver, according to a recent article: In It For The Long Haul – Passengers have right to dictate routes to cabbies. Don’t feel bad about telling them to keep you out of the tunnel! (New Readers: Note our August 16, 2006 and August 2, 2006 issues).

While monorail rider numbers plummet and the double-decker “Deuce” buses on The Strip proving very popular, the latest talk is to wipe out the beautiful median running down the middle of The Strip and make it a bus lane: Officials: Monorail, bus can share Strip – ‘Plenty of riders to go around,’ RTC says. I moved here back when the strip median was just raised concrete just like any other major boulevard anywhere else, and the grass and palm trees are much nicer. However… if you come to town and can’t even move up an down The Strip to enjoy it all, we’ve gotta do something.

I want to give a quick shout-out to my friend Lori Judd at A Time For Me Las Vegas. Her company can do everything from running errands to event planning. Whether you are a local who’s car needs that servicing and other time-consuming errands or a visitor looking for help with event planning, corporate functions and more, check them out. They have helped me in a pinch and I am happy to recommend them to others.

Enjoy This Issue!

Members Mania – We Love Our Readers!

Readers Write – Hi Ted,I am e-mailing you from Southampton United Kingdom. I subscribe to your excellent Newsletter. My husband and myself have been to Las Vegas 3 times, have stayed in the Stratosphere twice and the Stardust (which we understand is being pulled down). We were there for the opening night of The Venetian, however each time we have been it has been too windy for the fountains at the Bellagio, but have seen them on your video.The last time we were there was 2 years ago, and each time there is something different to see. We have been to see inside the Wedding Chapels which were just across the road from the Stratosphere, and Fremont Street experience was wonderful. We enjoy your newsletter very much, and hope to visit again in the future.Kind regards and keep up the good work on the Newsletter,

Carol and Tony Carter

Newkirk’s Notes – comments on Las Vegas from AccessVegas.Com publisher Ted Newkirk:

Hello From Las Vegas! Summer is wrapping up and it’s been a very cool summer compared to last year. I guess the heat went other places in the United States as last year we were facing somewhat regular 112+ temps here in Las Vegas, and this summer it has been around our average high of 104.

However … if our summer temps are too hot for you, now is the time to think ahead and book for later this fall when many areas start getting very cool while we are still warm and sunny. Book now before others start thinking about a late fall escape and drive up the room rates. If you live in a cold weather climate, you’ll be glad you did!

This follow up story about local cab drivers over-charging people by taking the the long way is a must print out for the following reason: It has the phone number of the Taxi Authority. This is a “must have” for all Las Vegas visitors.

If you run across a cab driver who diverts you to a club or night spot you didn’t initially request, takes to to The Strip or Downtown using the airport tunnel (without asking you first), who won’t take you the route of your choice, is driving dangerously or otherwise not acting in a professional manner, take action.

Note their name (displayed in the cab) or at the very least note the cab number and company when you are done with your ride, and call the Taxi Authority and register a complaint. They do listen and take action! When specific drivers get multiple complaints registered against them, they can get fined or worse.

Here’s the article:

In It For The Long Haul – Passengers have right to dictate routes to cabbies

Or … simply do what more and more people are doing and hire a limo for the ride to your hotel. You’ll be surprised at how affordable it is, and arriving at your hotel via limo kicks off your vacation in style!

Enjoy This Issue!

Hello From Las Vegas! One more month of summer left, but we are in the middle of a weird “cold” snap with highs barely reaching 100 F with the same for the next 7 days. We hope those of you in “warmer climates” dealing with the record U.S. heat wave are keeping cool.

Fall and football are just around the corner, and while it may be hot where many of you live right now, cool fall temperatures will soon come. October is a great month to be in Las Vegas. Temperatures are moderate (under 90 F), pools are still open, sports and sports betting are in full swing, and the weather is perfect for outdoor dining. Visit our friends at Las Vegas Hotel Deals and check out their discount rates for your fall Vegas getaway. Remember, prices only go up as rooms fill up, so booking early is the way to go!

Had an long, interesting talk with a local cab driver which I’ll go into in our next podcast. Changes are in the air as Vegas cab drivers realize how bad of a reputation they are getting. More and more people are taking shuttles or limos around town just to avoid being ripped off. Don’t take our word for it. Check out this very recent article from our local paper: Old Vegas lives on in shady cab acts.

The cab driver I talked to (and many others) are starting to get fed up with their colleagues who are screwing people over by taking them the long way. Perhaps we’ll see positive changes in the future.

We have a jam-packed newsletter so I’ll get out of the way and let you…

Members Mania – We Love Our Readers!

Note from Ted: We got quite a few responses regarding my reply to a letter from Dice Doc in our July 5, 2005 issue. I’m posting one of the responses, sent by famed Las Vegas gaming writer Jean “Queen of Comps” Scott:

Readers Write – Dear Ted,

Of course, I was interested in the latest reader letter about comps. And it is not my purpose to make everyone comp hounds! But I would like to point out that there are many ways to get comps without jeopardizing your gambling bankroll or feeling that you “owe” a casino your undying loyalty.

1. Just by using your players card and earning points and then redeeming them for comps is a very unpressured way to get comps. Sometimes this doesn’t even involve interacting with a clerk at the players club desk, but can be done at a kiosk.

2. Even at the highest levels, you aren’t required to have dealings with a host (although you will often get more comps if you do). Play at a very high level with your players card (or give the card to the dealer at table games so your play will be tracked) and you will receive top-notch mail offers for rooms, shows, etc. Most of these offers will have a phone number for something called VIP reservations which you can call and simply make the reservation there if you don’t want to make it through a host.

3. Of course comps aren’t “free” – the casino expects/hopes you will lose more on the games than you will get in comps. However, there is no reason that you have to fulfill the casino’s hopes and expectations. We play skillful video poker, picking the best pay schedules and the best slot club benefits like cashback, bounce-back cash or Free Play, and the best promotions, like card-of-the day or bonus-point times. Therefore we do not lose ANY money in the long run in our play, so the magnificent comps we get ARE free.

And even if you don’t play quite so skillfully but you try to play the games where the casino has a smaller edge and you always use your slot club card or ask to be tracked at the tables and you take advantage of some promotions, you can often get comps that have more value than what you lose on the casino floor. If you were going to take $200 out of your pocket to pay for a casino room and meal, it would be frugal if you earned $100 in comps to cut that expense in half. Then you would have more money to put in your gambling bankroll and you could play longer!

4. Of course hosts work for the casino. But they also know that most players gamble at more than one casino. In 21 years of gambling in casinos, we have never had a host that was “jealous” that we played at other casinos. They do try to make your stay as pleasant as possible so you will WANT to come back. But you have no obligation to do so and shouldn’t feel that you “owe” a casino for past comps.

5. I always say that you should never play JUST for comps, but you might as well collect the comps that you have earned during the time when you were playing anyway!

Sincerely,

Jean Scott, Queen of Comps

Author of the Frugal Gambler books that tell you how to maximize your comps so your gambling bankroll will last longer. Learn about the resources available for smarter gambling so your comps won’t cost you too much at http://www.frugalgambler.biz

Ted Responds –

It was great to hear from Jean, someone we’ve known and appreciated over the past decade here in Las Vegas. She and her husband Brad are truly some of the more enjoyable people in this business.

They both just had a huge Las Vegas experience, winning the top prize of $500,000 in a Caesars Palace slot tournament. Want to hear the kicker? The won their entry into the tournament by playing a specified amount of slot play (high limit video poker for them), in which they played by the rules and methods she writes about in her books!

I appreciate Jean taking the time to read and respond and wish her much continued success. Her books are well worth reading!

Newkirk’s Notes – comments on Las Vegas from AccessVegas.Com publisher Ted Newkirk:

Hello From Las Vegas! Plenty of hot new information this issue. A couple of regular features are missing due to the July 4 holiday, but we never halt bringing you tons of great Las Vegas information. Read on!

Imperial Palace Update – A number of you wrote in saying “I have reservations later this year at the Imperial Palace and am worried what will happen if they close it sooner!”

I contacted our friend Rhonda at I4Vegas (the company that handles the reservations if you use the booking box search on our site). She said this:

“I’m sure they will know a closing date so far in advance that existing reservations will not be affected, but should that be the case, you would be given comparable or upgraded accommodations at no additional cost. Just for your information, they do also own Harrah’s, Bally’s, Flamingo, Paris and Caesars all in that same area of the Strip.”

Note: This is from our travel partner and applies to those of you who have booked the Imperial Palace through our booking box or Imperial Palace information page here on AccessVegas.com. We can not speak for any other travel company.

If you didn’t make your reservations with us, you may wish to contact the customer service contact with wherever you made your reservations to find out their policy. We try to be as helpful as we can, but if (for example) you buy an Acura and you have a concern, it won’t do you any good to ask the people at the Lexus dealership. My point: We can’t speak to the policy of other companies.

For those who do make any type of reservation through our travel partners using the main booking boxes on AccessVegas.com, we are always more than happy to help. We choose the companies we associate with very carefully. Provided you book with one of our travel partners, always feel free to drop us a line at allvegastv@aol.com with any concern and we get right on it!

Kimo’s Vegas TV – Our good friend Kimo Akane is a native Hawaiian and a Vegas expert. Over a million Hawaiians visit Las Vegas every single year and Kimo has teamed with Time Warner Cable Television in Hawaii to create a new video show about Las Vegas! Fortunately, you don’t have to live in Hawaii to enjoy the show. You can view it online streaming right now. Click to Kimo’s Vegas TV

The CityCenter of attention – MGM Mirage unveils model of its $7 billion mixed-use megaproject – As Bill McBeath sees it, the last thing Las Vegas needs is another hotel-casino.

Members Mania – We Love Our Readers!

Readers Write –

Hi Ted,

I truly enjoy the newsletter. I am curious about 1 thing though – does everyone try and get something for nothing in Vegas? I love Vegas make no mistake. I have played everything from penny slots up to and including black and purple checks on the craps table. Other than drinks, I have never ever taken a comp for anything. Nor do I intend to.

I come to play – not collect freebies. Last thing I want is some casino toadie looking over my shoulder offering me a room or a dinner. I gamble to gamble. I don’t want gifts – I want to be left alone. If I want a suite, I’ll pay for it.

All I want is a room where I get no phone calls, no one bothering me and no distractions. I’ll buy my own dinner thank you. If you are comping me dinner to the gourmet room, chances are it will be more crowded than anyplace I want to be. Let me alone and I’ll win or lose 5 figures, try and comp me and I will walk out the door. Just my nature,

Dicedoc from Chicago

Ted Responds – Thanks for reading! No question that many want to enjoy all the freebies they can, although it comes at a price to a higher limit player such as yourself. They want to track your play, get your home address, cell phone number, run your credit and practically name your first born in return for the higher level comps (free suites, fine dining, top show tickets all on the house).

That comes with a price. Your new “best friend” is the casino host at the place you frequent. It is nice to have them inviting you out to Vegas all the time with the comps, but in reality it is their job to get you locked in. Visiting only their place as often as possible while keeping you away from the competition. In addition, two risks come to mind:

Comps are not actually free. They are based on your play. The more money you are likely to lose, and the more often you come and visit (creating more losing visits in the big picture), the more stuff they give you. But it is only a fraction of what they expect you to lose over the course of your many visits.á
Familiarity breeds contempt. For years, I had a friend come to town and toss some pretty serious money around playing at one of the major Strip properties. He only stayed there no matter what. Over time, he noticed that his treatment wasn’t as good as it used to be and the comps weren’t as generous.What should he have done? Taken his action to other hotels, told them he was a longtime Hotel X customer but he wanted to see what they could do for him. They would have rolled out the red carpet! But alas my friend felt obligated by his “friendship” to the host of Hotel X and just kept visiting and being disappointed.

Note: Hotel hosts are not nor every will they be your friend. Their job is to get you to visit often enough to separate you (over the years) from as much of your money as possible. And they succeed because since you want to keep your comp level up (and keep the freebies and their “friendship” intact), most people tend to gamble more than they normally would have.

How much more? When all is said and done, they gamble away more to stay in the host’s good graces than it would have cost just to buy the suite, buy the fine dining, and buy excellent tickets to a show (fight, whatever) from a broker!

This is not a blanket condemnation of casino hosts or those of you who gamble lots of cash and expect good comps. Just remember that it is you against them, and plenty of competing properties want your business. Your host does his job, which is to try to keep you happy. But your job is to be a smart customer, not afraid to take your business across the street in search of a better deal (better treatment, more comps).

Many choose to go Dicedoc’s route: No pressure from the host, no pressure to gamble a certain number of hours per day, no pressure to stay at only a certain hotels. And for those of you that gamble at the higher levels, this might be a great time to review what’s going on. Are you happy with your host? Have you had some bad losses trying to put in the expected number of hours where the money would have better been spent paying for your suite and only gambling when you feel in a “lucky” mood?

I’m not here to take sides. Have nothing against casino hosts. Use them wisely if you use them. Just reminding all our readers who play higher-end to that you have many options.

Newkirk’s Notes – comments on Las Vegas from AccessVegas.Com publisher Ted Newkirk:

Hello From Las Vegas! We want to wish Jerry Lewis a speedy and good recovery from his recent heart troubles. I had the pleasure of seeing him perform in 2000 and was blown away (read my archived review). I was born well after his height of fame and can’t say I’m necessarily a fan of his movies. But as a stage entertainer, Lewis is one of the finest I’ve every seen. He had to cancel his July engagement here in Las Vegas, but he will be hosting the Labor Day Telethon live from the South Coast Hotel Casino.

Imperial Palace Future? – The word surrounding the future implosion of the Imperial Palace changes by the day and by the source. Is (IP owner) Harrah’s going to blow it up and put something new on that spot? Yes. But we have very mixed signals about how soon. The hotel has been undergoing significant changes and renovation, most of which make no sense if the hotel is on its last legs. Having said that, an implosion and construction project is such a major decision that Harrah’s wouldn’t let a few bucks worth of changes at the IP stand in the way or a decision to go ahead and torch it. We’ll keep you posted …

Bellagio Fountains Of Diet Coke – If you are one of the few that haven’t seen the online video that recreated the Bellagio Fountains using Diet Coke and mentos, this is a must see. Click To View

The George Wallace Show Gets Better

George Wallace las vegas Reviewed May, 2006
by Phil Arnold

The George Wallace Show in Las Vegas has been in town for a little over two years, and it has gotten better. The show was good two years ago when I saw it, but I think Wallace is even more comfortable with Las Vegas audiences than he was before. In many ways he plays the audience like a skilled fisherman. He evaluates the audience as he goes, and adjusts to the audience. If you go and see shows on back-to-back nights you are likely to see 75% different material than you did the night before.

What will you see when you go see George Wallace at the Flamingo Hotel and Casino? You will see a very funny show. You know that Wallace is going to talk about “I be thinking,” how he has been observing people and situations, and he will offer some common sense, but really funny suggestions and solutions. He will pick on some people in the audience, joking good-naturedly about audience members, often related to various professions. If you are a lawyer, or work at an airport, you might get picked on. And if you are a prison guard who is wearing an orange jump suit, you might get picked on. Click to Read Full Review …

Dear Ted,

I have been subscribing to your newsletter since just before my first trip to Las Vegas in April two years ago. Thanks to you upon arrival I knew what sites I wanted to see and which I didn’t, where to find great drink and food deals and even how much it was going to cost me to go to the Stratosphere to ride the coaster! And, it was all right on my pocket PC. I owe a great 5 day trip to you. Not a minute was wasted.

This year as we are gearing up to go on May 5th, thanks to your newsletter, I now know that since the Westward Ho has closed, I can go to Casino Royale to get my cheap Margaritas. I also see I am not the only one saddened by the closing of the Stardust, our hotel of choice. Like you I feel they should keep some of it’s history at the new Echelon Place. I can’t imagine that section of the strip without the famous sign.

Keep up the good work!

Suzanne E.

Headlights and Tailpipes

Headlights and Tailpipes las vegas Reviewed May, 2005
by Phil Arnold

When I first heard about this show, I was thinking this is some serious double entendre. So if I read my double meanings with a sexual implication, this show should be about beautiful girls and fancy cars. In fact, it should be by its implication a topless show with a minimal amount of clothes.

I am not a huge antique car fan. So I was thinking this is going to be just another topless show. Well, it’s not just another topless show. It is certainly not your run of the mill topless show. There are in fact cars I liked in this show. There was a pre-1960 Ford Thunderbird featured during a Beach Boys tune, Fun, Fun, Fun Till Her Daddy Takes Her T-bird Away or whatever that tune is entitled. There is a song about a Pink Cadillac and several other Rock N Roll standards about cars and women. My favorite car was probably a mid-60s Pontiac GTO. There were also Corvettes and Chevy Bel Aires.
