For Smokers who Play Video Poker and Slots

Sunday, November 5th, 2006

The Clean Indoor Air Act bullshit just had one absolute solution.

Yep, apparently, slot machine bars and convenience store owners are hoping to defeat the almighty ‘’Clean Indoor Air Act’’ crap. The Clean Indoor Air Act would ban smoking (for obvious reasons…) in almost every goddamn indoor public area EXCEPT for casino floors.

Now, convenience stores that offer gambling and slot machines (and doesn’t have anything that can be called a casino floor whatsoever, by the way…) had a slight glimmer of hope. They’re hoping that the Clean Indoor Air Act would be blown away by another bill, dubbed, ‘’Responsibly Protect Nevadans from Secondhand Smoke Act.’’

The ‘’Responsibly Protect Nevadans from Secondhand Smoke Act’’ would restrict smoking in restaurants to adult-only areas. And yeah, the bill will ALLOW smoking in slot machine zones, even if they’re on convenience and grocery stores.

Nice bill eh?

Well, some Nevadans doesn’t think so. Some people who hail from the great state of Nevada are baffled why the state has allowed these ‘’mini casinos‘’ in convenience stores in the first place.

Although I personally think that these people, probably new residents, should just shut the fuck up and accept the state’s somewhat peculiar traditions. After all, this IS Nevada and this IS the ‘’Nevada Way.’’

Well, Nevada Way or not, these guys think that grocery stores with…

Golden Nugget Flavors Up Downtown Las Vegas Dining

Friday, October 27th, 2006

Landry’s Restaurants, new owners of Golden Nugget Las Vegas, is bringing food to the table.

Casual dining has been Landry’s bread and butter, from its first restaurant in Katy, Texas, in 1980, to highly reputed seafood and steak houses like Landry’s Seafood House, Joe’s Crab Shack, and Willie G’s Seafood & Steakhouse. Today the Houston-based company operates over 300 restaurants in 35 US states and the District of Columbia.

lillies.jpgLandry’s is among the nation’s biggest names as well in entertainment and hospitality; but when news broke of its acquisition of Golden Nugget Hotel and Casino, our first thought was undoubtedly food.

How is Landry’s introducing new taste and sizzle to Las Vegas Downtown and Fremont? Knowing Golden Nugget to be a winner of the AAA Four-Diamond Award since 1977, and Landry’s to be the only Hot Concepts three-time honoree from Nation’s Restaurant News, will the changes meet the expectations of our palates?

Vic & Anthony’s, Landry’s award-winning steakhouse, is fitting as the first major project completed of the new owners’ two-year renovation. The Las Vegas location opened in December 2005, with much of the luxuries that helped garner accolades…

Las Vegas Cirque du Soleil for Dummies – Get It? (part 2)

Thursday, October 19th, 2006

The circus by itself is meant to be spectacular and fascinating. But this is Las Vegas.

The Las Vegas idea of a circus is Cirque du Soleil, which you can tell by the sound is plenty notches higher than bearded chicks and mermen. When it last premiered a Las Vegas show, they came: Billy Crystal, Lauren Hutton, Debbie Harry, Steven Van Zandt, and The Beatles’ biggest family reunion since way back – Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Yoko Ono, Olivia Harrison, and Cynthia, Julian, and Sean Lennon.

Quebec-based Cirque du Soleil, arguably the most popular Las Vegas entertainment group, is deemed among the world’s best circuses. It has been featured everywhere from The Muppets and The Simpsons to South Park and Arrested Development; even the computer game Myth. Catch it or miss it? Find out…

Zumanity. New York-New York Hotel and Casino. Aka the adult one. The cabaret-style show, dubbed as Another Side of Cirque du Soleil, is themed with a human zoo; the title is a play on the words ‘zoo’ and ‘humanity’. Characters are sensual – French maids, schoolgirl fantasists, goddess-loving humans, gigolos, male lovers, a phantom, and a she-male that is the zoo guide.

A strip dance, flamenco and African dances, aerial and statue dances, and body contortions lead to the concluding acts Midnight Bath and Orgy. Thierry Mugler designed the incendiary costumes…

Anti-Online Gambling Bill Passed As Security Measure.

Monday, October 2nd, 2006

Don’t ask me, I dunno either.

In a move that caught everyone off-guard, the US Senate passed the controversial Anti-Online Gambling Bill, with a shady backdoor deal on the side.

In a Congressional back room deal, opponents of Internet gambling have added language to port security legislation that would prohibit online wagering.

Yeah, the bill was tied to an unrelated port security bill. So opponents will have no choice but to pass it since we are now talking about national security. Call me stupid but really I don’t get it.

Anti-Online Gambling Bill Passed Anyway, the main meat of the bill that is sure to be signed into law by the embattled President George Bush, is preventing the transfer of funds into online gambling accounts.

Banks are now required to monitor transactions, and deny any transactions from payment providers for online gaming. There is already much debate over whether third party processors, such as NETeller will be affected, PokerNews reported.

Of course we all know that the sudden speed of passing this bill has much to do with the coming mid-term elections. What with all the Iraq war scandal, Mark Foley’s homo-erotic emails with a teenage congressional page, and Republicans feeling the heat of losing majority in both houses.

There has to be some sacrificial offering to appease their fanbase. The question is will it work?

Will millions of Americans today hooked on online gaming, especially online poker, the politicians are sure to lose votes with…

NETeller Takes The Place of Credit Cards for Online Gambling

Thursday, August 31st, 2006

Your credit card companies won’t let you use your plastics to play your favorite casino games online? Well that’s their loss because online gamers can simply switch to e-wallets.

Because of the anti-online gambling climate prevailing in the US, credit companies would rather get to the safe side lest they face litigation from the federal government. Credit card companies are banning transactions related to online gambling, causing online gamblers to look to other options for their online gambling needs.

NETellet online casino payment systemMany online gambling companies in return are working around this issue by taking online checks and online payments through e-wallet services like NETeller.
